I mostly don't try to match people on Tinder but open the app occasionally and realise how few people seem remotely suitable.
But swiping on a couple of 40 somethings claiming to seek long term relationships that then actually matched over the last couple of months has matched me to a couple of people.
The first very quickly revealed himself to be a romance scammer of some sort when he said he was a research student in the university's research department. Come on people, if you are going to make up a fake identity, do a little bit of homework for your legend. (Look at me revealing I partake in spy thrillers, and don't really know anything about being a conman.)
The newer did a better job of passing for human, but if definitely using AI to make his answers seem something... maybe, smarter, which is making me assume he is probably also a catfish of some sort. And they are fairly generic. So will probably turn out to be a romance scammer, but has at least done a bit of homework of sounding convincingly in Dunedin. If not convincingly an actual human. Why do people bother?
But more to the point, why have I bothered replying.
The internet produces nothing good.
But hey, the US and Israel and war criming Iran and Lebanon, and maybe starting WWIII. Nuclear armageddon could wipe out humanity before anything else has a chance of being a problem. With any luck.
