The best ideas always pop into your head when you’re drowning in an exhaustion-induced hazed, aka during finals week. A pencil that never runs out of graphite? Genius! A microwave that cools things down instead of heating them up? Sounds like a million dollar idea! Never mind that both of these things already exist, it’s the thought that counts, regardless of how ill conceived and pointless the idea is. The same applies to deciding to be a ghost on Tinder for shits and kicks.
I’m going to redownload Tinder and try to convince every boy that I am a ghost

Rather than using real photos of herself she went and swirled her face in every image, and instead of having a lame bio like “I like cats and pumpkin spice lattes,” her bio read “I haven’t felt the temptation to partake of succulent human flesh since my execution for crimes against humanity.”
Too many dudes thought I was trying to just censor my face so I had to make all my photos ghostier pic.twitter.com/tf2fMsxIM2

If you’re thinking “Yeah okay no one’s going to swipe right on that weird shit,” then you obviously have never been on Tinder before.
According to Spelman,
“I swiped right on every profile that came up…I got over 20 ‘I’m confused…but aroused’ messages. It’s hard to define ‘weird’ in this situation…A lot of men would start off angry. They would begin our conversations already upset at the fact that they were being trolled.”
Why respond to a Tinder match if you’re pissy about being trolled? Because you’re a thirsty fuck who’s willing to try anything, that’s why.
getting so many messages right now that are so good/bad to be true. I don’t even think this guy looked @ my profile pic.twitter.com/hHozMLc24B

Let this be a lesson to everyone out there: if you sound like ANY of these guys when you’re swipin’ through Tinder, you should probably stop…forever.
