We weren't dating, but I once had an opposite gender friend break up our friendship because I told her the Velvet Underground is overrated.

We probably had other issues too,


Hahaha, I’m the Robert Palmer/Little Feat PP, but I also really like Velvet Underground. Nope I’m wondering if I was your opposite gender friend.

Does anybody like Sweeney Todd?


Are you serious?

I wouldn’t break up with someone for not liking Sweeney Todd. But I would break off a relationship with someone who didn’t respect Stephen Sondheim. Hells yes.

I would find the bowling shoes charming!

I dumped a guy because he had stinky ferrets, yet he complained about my friend's house smelling like horses and dogs. The way I dumped him was by stopping at a little country store for lunch. The store smelled like rancid grease, and there were chickens walking around on the merchandise. So he never called me again!

I didn't go out on a second date with a guy because he used a coupon on our first date.

I can only image someone doing this if the bathroom was filthy and they couldn’t take it any longer. Ew.

AHHH my sister is dating a guy like this right now! She says he uses corporate buzzwords all the time, and does corporate-ish things when she's out with him - for example, when they go out to dinner, he folds his hands together on the table and treats the date like he's doing a job interview.

They've been dating for 4 months now and he still does this

Major cotton mouth-foam beads on the sides of his tongue and a gelled back helmet head hair do. Ba-bye !

He was probably just really into trolling. I dated a guy who was so good at trolling some of his antics got mentioned on Tucker Carlson and Rachel Maddow. The dude was good. Highly intelligent, just bored.


Ugh, he was not trolling. He took himself incredibly seriously, was not particularly nice, and had no sense of humor, but of course thought he was hilarious and no one else was. He was 1000% serious with his scathing Yelp reviews, and ironically, they have to be the funniest commentary he’s ever made. like, crying with laughter pathetically hilarious. He seemed normal when I met him, but quickly discovered he was kind of an incel and was relieved to jump ship.
