“I can’t believe how boring the guys are in this town,” a San Francisco friend of mine messaged me after seeing my Tinder Live show at Cobb’s Comedy Club as part of SF Sketchfest.
I created my show Tinder Live with Lane Moore nearly 10 years ago now because the first time I used dating apps I was struck by how many absolutely wild profiles I’d seen, particularly from men. I’ve toured the world and written a book about how to be alone (if you want to or if you don’t), as well as one coming out in April about adult friendships. So I know how hard meeting people can be for so many of us, how scary the vulnerability seems, how frustrating the dead ends can feel, and how burnt out many of us are from seeing so many wild dating profiles.
Last month, I found myself in San Francisco swiping through “Owner at None Of Your Business” and “Creator of this thing you use all the time and now you know the guy who made it is weirdly hot.” It was baffling to see their cards so close to the chest and guarded in a way that was different from the beautiful chaos of other cities.
Typical dating app tropes run the gamut from how-is-this-allowed-to-be-on-here heinous to tamer “What is this, exactly?” profiles of men holding fish (common in SF, which makes sense: lots of bodies of water, many fish). These photos imply that this particular man knows where a river is, and could catch fish for you, in case all the local grocery stores burned to the ground. The fish-holding photos seem to say: I can provide for you, or at least find a half-dead fish and take a selfie with it. Is this enough to form

I think they are implying they will screw fish for fun.
She probably has to pull a UHaul trailer behind her vehicle to haul her antibiotics.
Nick, you have a rather interesting reading list. 😂 just kidding
Stank ho
Funny article. The writer is dumb and ugly. Proof: “I’ve been surprised by how often the men I matched with didn’t reply at all.” Get used to it, loser. Men don’t like you, because you are dumb and ugly. Welcome to social media.
I assumed the author was male, because why would a woman look for men in San Francisco?
The4 majority of men in SF are still straight.
50 years ago, I once wondered where all the hot (female) nurses were.
I was told: San Francisco!
I googled her...
Not hideous...
“I’ve toured the world and written a book about how to be alone...”
Wow. I’m sure that book was a sellout (a sucker born every minute: PT Barnum).
What would people on the planet do if not for Lane Moore’s shattering treatise on “how to be alone”.
Not hideous.."
Okay.
I’d hit it
Why did this article mysteriously remind of the “black hole of calcutta”?
If she’s tendering her way around the country I’m pretty sure she’s a bat crap crazy liberal with a very high body count behind her.
She probably has doctors in every city to take care of the sores, rashes, leakages, etcétera of all the STD’s she’s collected.
