Remember how, just the other week, I proclaimed with wide-eyed innocence that there wasn’t a dating site for vegans? How wrong I was. Long-maligned for their sanctimonious nature and their fervent belief that what you eat determines who you are on a spiritual level, it actually makes perfect sense that vegans would establish a dating

If you’re keen to find the next Tinder, you might well spend your time scrolling through badly constructed websites and downloading apps that nobody had thought to optimise for Android users. Finally, you might just traipse back to Bumble – you’ve been there before, but at least it actually has users. If this sounds exhausting,

If you decided to stand in the street and ask people which social groups they found most annoying, they would probably answer “people who stand in the street and ask questions”. If you managed to convince them to continue the conversation, they might answer “vegans” or “fitness buffs”. Whilst there isn’t, to my knowledge, a

It’s not uncommon for dating app websites to have reviews and love stories from happy clients. What is unusual is for anyone to say that they want to thank the app, because without it they would, quote, “die of loneliness”. What a way to introduce potential new users.

In May last year, I wrote about a new dating app called Qemistry. I believe I used the term ‘gimmick’ only once, but the entire piece was firmly against the app, which seemed to genuinely believe it was heralding the next sexual revolution by replacing photographs on dating sites with short videos. I published the

It’s interesting to consider how our dating habits have changed in the past decade. I would argue that the currently accepted use of online dating, through sites and apps, has led to a sexual revolution that rivals the one in the 1960s, spearheaded by the newly minted contraceptive pill. Then, people could have far more

There is, in my opinion, nothing funnier than something that claims to be utterly unique but is actually very ordinary. Especially if it’s coupled with an absolute sense of sincerity and an utter lack of awareness that anyone would find it amusing. Looking through the website for FDBK, I kept switching between laughing out loud

There are few things more funny than when two unrelated subjects share an acronym or initialism. For example, MLM can refer either to Men Loving Men (in a sexual/romantic way) or to Multi-Level Marketing (not *technically a pyramid scheme, but still a huge scam). The newest words to confuse people? “Ghost singles”. Anyone who is
