20 Cringeworthy Lines You Do NOT Want To Find In A Girl's Tinder Bio
Jan Vašek

Tinder might just be something you use when you've got nothing else to do at 2 a.m. on a school night, or maybe you're actually a serious user. If that's the case, you definitely do NOT want any of the lines below written anywhere on your profile. They're so commonplace and not at all original, you can do better than these, sweetie. Just be creative!

1. "I'm visiting for a few days and I'm looking for someone to show me around"

So you really just went through the hassle of making a Tinder profile to use in hopes of scoring a personal tour guide? Seems counterproductive to me.

2. "Just got over a breakup and I'm ready to date again"

As long as you don't flood a right-swipe's messages with complaints about your most recent ex, then by all means, announce your new singularity to the world…or maybe not.

3. "I have a boyfriend, but I swear he doesn't mind"

More like "I swear he doesn't know that I'm on Tinder looking for some side action"...

4. "My boyfriend and I are looking for a third"

For most people, there's nothing more disappointing than hearing that you've already got a boyfriend and just want to use them during sex.

5. "Nothing serious"

*wears a jester's hat on the first meet-up and tells lame jokes the whole night*

6. "I want something real"

That's perfectly fine, but do you want a real hookup? A real relationship? A real friendship, even?

7. "Just looking for new friends!"

Who joins Tinder simply for platonic pals, anyway? That's not to say you can't do it, but chances are, you'll meet all the wrong people who want very different things than you.

8. "My friend made this profile for me"

Is that your way of excusing your presence on an online dating app? Why should you be ashamed of that, and why should we?

9. "I'm never on here, message me on Snapchat"

Well-played…but so, so unoriginal, my friend.

10. "INTJ-ENFP-LMNOP, introverted extrovert, Leo/Capricorn/centaur hybrid"

Myers and Briggs called, they want their personality typology back.

11. "If you're not at least 6 ft, swipe left"

If you're barely crossing 5'3" yourself, who are you to say a guy simply MUST be 6' tall? Are you a rollercoaster?

12. "If you vote Republican, don't even bother"

Not every Republican is a racist, homophobic, gun-loving fiend. Maybe you should give people the benefit of the doubt before you assign a heavy label to them.

13. "I can't believe I'm even using this app"

Way to belittle yourself and everyone else for simply trying to meet new people and have new experiences.

14. "*insert quote from "The Office" here*"

So you're "only a little 'stitious"? What a relief, we were so worried you were SUPERstitious!

15. "I'll swipe right if you have a dog/cat in your profile picture"

Oh, will you? We're oh-so-blessed to know that the sole reason you're pursuing us is that we've got a puppy or a kitty. Now I won't even let you pet them.

16. "This kid I'm holding isn't mine, it's my sibling/cousin/neighbor"

If you were so concerned about mistaken for a baby mama, why did you choose that photo altogether?

17. "I'm very down-to-Earth"

There is no better way to convince people that you are not down-to-Earth by stating that you are.

18. "I love food and naps"

Come on, there's got to be more to you than just eating and sleeping, girly.

19. "Just message me and ask"

This cryptic tagline is more discouraging than you think. It's admirable that you're trying to be open, but if you want to reel in matches, you've got to intrigue them in some way. Just be yourself.

20. "I'm not good at bios lol"

…and yet, here you are with your banal attempt at being witty (props for the attempt, though).

If you're one of the girls inspired by this article to change your Tinder bio ASAP, don't worry - I won't tell.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

186359

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
