Either way, you’re living your fantasies

Really embarrassed for the person screenshotting themselves hitting on women, at least blur her image, and crop your screenshot, smdh

That’s actually also fine, because that’s very easy to feel out when talking to someone, IME. I was more trying to filter out the type of person who doesn’t know anything about BDSM but would enthusiastically agree to take control without doing any work to understand how to do things safely. I’m tired of being endangered because someone didn’t want to listen to me explaining that you need to avoid the kidneys in impact play or that you can’t put the entire body weight on an unsupported suspended strappado. I’m not good at sorting that type of person out in my dating life, unfortunately, but I can spot them immediately when they dm/talk about dming.

And they’re not embarrassed, you’re taking on a burden no one’s carrying

Death saving throws and the weeble-wobble effect is unironically one of the worst parts of dnd 5e and pathfinder 2e.

Ahh, Hinge: the app for people that are too sophisticated for Tinder, but still superficial enough that their profiles are 90% photos.

Just remember it’s basically garbage in, garbage out. I know a lot of folks half-ass it (bad photos, lazy profile, half-assed messages) and then are surprised that they don’t rise above the sea of other half-assed people and the algorithms.

Ah! ok, that makes sense.

A similar thing probably also applies to other areas of life - like how does this person drive?

thanks, giving it a go! It looks very much like bumble, but we’ll see

I mean if you’re measuring by number of pixels on the screen, I guess

in my experience, hinge profiles are decently filled out

Oh yeah, with thrilling autobiographies such as:

For fun I like to: Walk my dog in the park!

And

2 Truths and a Lie:

• I spent the night in jail
• I’ve never broken a bone
• I once met <B-list celebrity>

Baldur’s Gate does a decent job with it by burning your Action after you get up from 0

oops, I swalloed the die.

it was a d100

ugh that second example is on point. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a good response to that prompt. maybe one, but I don’t remember it.

like I’m not going to claim that my profile is amazing, but at least I do try to describe myself using it

and… yeah… like that’s often where people go to walk dogs, thanks for sharing, I had no clue. I guess I’m glad you enjoy it? I usually hate walking my dogs lol, they’re terrible when taken together and worse in a group. one wants to stop and sniff everything and the other only wants to get wherever we’re going faster. it’s not a good combination to walk at the same time lmao. perfectly fine enough individually, but there’s not always time for that.

It’s funny (read: it shits me to tears) how people will go on a conversation starter-based dating app and then just wordlessly like my pics anyway and expect me to dig around in their totally uninformative profile for something to talk about.

Either way, the answer is the same: no.

The stats on people’s hinge profile are often more attractive than their actual prompts.

Stats: 32, Bank Manager, Non Smoker, Some HCOL Area

The prompts: Must love dogs

Really? I actually think it’s one of the strengths of 5e. In 3.5 you just have negative hitpoints down to -10, and that doesn’t scale with level or anything so it’s barely relevant after the first few levels. And it’s nice to not be just DRT when you get downed in combat.

Well, you were going to be waiting a while for it to stop rolling anyway. This might actually be faster.

My answer is the same: I’d really like to, but I can’t find anyone to do it with, and I doubt I’d be any good at it.
