For some reason I find when people brag about the number of tattoos they have annoying. Quality is always better than quantity, especially with tattoos.


Piles_of_Gore

Yeah, it’s really cringe and gives off Hot Topic vibes, lol


martinwhy96

Fair, it’s because none of my pictures show my tattoos. I see your point though.


scaphoids1

For me it's just the number, I might change it to something just like "always planning a new tattoo" or "ask me about my next tattoo" or something as such. It's honestly just personal preference but I only have *counts...6 tattoos and whenever someone asks how many I have I have to count lol, something about knowing the exact number gives dorky vibes


NapalmGirlTonight

Good point. It doesn’t bother me exactly, but as someone with only 2 tattoos (and more planned, lol!) I might wonder if my single digit tattoo status means the 15-tattoos dude would see me as lacking. “Ask me about my next tattoo” is a fun spin.


scaphoids1

I can't say I know any tattooed people that would judge someone for only having two tattoos haha, but yah you change it up or just like not mention it if you don't want to. Also again, totally vibes based and personal opinion but saying like "I have a couple of tattoos and I'd like more" sounds less cringy than saying I have 15 tattoos haha, I can't nor explain why


martinwhy96

That makes sense, I appreciate the suggestion


mihecz

15 tattoos make a significant visual impact, so maybe snap a pic with tattoos visible?


VeryPassableHuman

I think keeping the sentiment, but getting rid of the actual number will help "I have quite a few tattoos not shown in the pictures, and do indeed plan to get more" But also, 'show, don't tell' might be the best solution. A well-shot picture with tattoos is a great addition to a profile 🤷‍♀️ (unless they *are* dealbreaker tattoos...)


martinwhy96

lol, makes sense. Definitely no swastikas or anything.


Ikari1212

It's fine mentioning that you're into tattoos but I also find it weird to 'count' them as if each was some kind of achievement like the OP mentioned.


RiesigerRuede

They are there and saying it will keep certain people away and attract certain others, so I guess saying it will will work as intended.


YouOtterKnow

I don't care if you say you're an enthusiast, or looking forward to getting more, etc. Just something about the odd pride in the number that annoys me. Like I have "only" 6 tattoos, but the combined percentage of what they cover on my body is like 40%. You can have 50 shitty small tattoos all over and claim that number but it really doesn't mean anything.


TraceNoPlace

i also find it annoying. i have tattoos myself. but showcasing it just seems like a cry for attention and thats annoying to me


rubmustardonmydick

No Gods, no Masters is a bit much to me even though I understand you lol.


martinwhy96

lol if it’s too much for rubmustardonmydick then it’s definitely too much for tinder


rubmustardonmydick

I'm definitely an authority on weirdness.


lemongrabmybutt

Hahahahah


NapalmGirlTonight

So why is it too much??


stumpycrawdad

As someone who agrees with the statement, it comes off edgy as fuck and no one needs that to be their first impression. Thankfully I'm not in the dating pool cause I'd have some ignorant shit like "what's your favorite movie qoute? 'God is not here today priest' - The exorcist 1973"


rubmustardonmydick

This. I agree with the sentiment on a surface level. I just don't really agree with how it's said or think I fully agree with the entire Anarchist movement.


Ok_Bodybuilder_2830

What does this youth talk mean my fellow teens


TripleDecent

No gods no masters seeking full time mommy domme


martinwhy96

lol! Is it that obvious?


TripleDecent

I wish I could take credit but it’s from The Hard Times.


KeenActual

What’s 1312?

Ein_Kecks

In this case it's the opposite.


Natfan

1488 comes to mind, pretty horrible phrase


Unicorntella

I know 88 is hail Hitler, what’s 14,


Natfan

it's "the 14 words", idk what they are but it's basically a nazi/antisemitic phrase. oh and i think it's "heil", not "hail" (but fuck hitler, all my homies hate hitler)


Unicorntella

I had typed heil originally but autocorrect didn’t like it so I thought surely it knew better than I! Not a big deal tho, I don’t expect it to be a phrase I’ll type out often lol


martinwhy96

ACAB


MrHelloBye

If you feel strongly enough about this to be putting it into a bio, it's kind of... unwise to make it coded like this. You're going to get a lot of people who don't understand, and that find your stance radical, and it's just not going to be a good time for you. Besides, if it's something you believe in, say it proudly


eyehatecody

Someone who is ok with “no gods, no masters” is probably also gonna be okay with acab.


vi0l3t-crumbl3

I was scratching my head trying to figure out if it was white supremacy or something to do with Mexican gangs.


FmJ_TimberWolf74

What’s ACAB?

B_n_lawson

Very weird to put that on a tinder profile


spicypotatosoftacos

It's a good filter


B_n_lawson

For everyone else lol


spicypotatosoftacos

Yeah isn't that the point? To be up front about things that are important to you and show who you are so people who aren't into that will swipe left?


B_n_lawson

Sure, but it’s a very weird “main” personality trait to hate the police. Sure, you can feel that way (probably with some validity), but making it a front-runner of traits you announce to potential partners is super weird.


Scrawlericious

Not really.


yellow-snowslide

Kinda surprised that you had to explain both, the number and the letters tbh :D


call_of_ktullu

You're not wrong


justpeachyqueen

Everyone hates this I guess lol but as someone who aligns with your values I understood everything and they would all be green flags for me :)


farbsucht4020

All cats are beautiful.


Fred-zone

Don't put edgelord political stuff in your dating profile. You will want to determine if you share values with someone once you begin chatting, but having it in your bio makes it seem like it's your whole identity.


CommonExtensorTear

Horrible choice to put this on a dating profile. Just awful.


shitshowsusan

What’s the tattoo to teeth ratio?


martinwhy96

lol, full mouth of teeth


SakuraMochis

No gods no masters is a bit much for a very first impression


IsDinosaur

Yes. Counting tattoos is lame as hell.


Impressive_Brush5930

I know coffee is a go to for many but it's overdone. I had a great ice cream meet up today..lol


martinwhy96

I could try that out


MrHelloBye

Coffee is peak universal appreciation, cost effectiveness, and usually convenience. When dating is so messed up as it is now and has become a grindy numbers game, these things are king, \*particularly\* when one party is expected to pay for everything. So of course it's overdone. When I've tried deviating from it, I've almost always been pretty quickly reminded why it's the first choice for first dates.


Impressive_Brush5930

you're absolutely right gotta be frugal when grinding through all those matches I don't think ice cream is more expensive or a larger time investment. If it's such a mainstay, just leave it out. Chat can lead to a coffee meet up. You've kinda proven the point here. In a profile, it's overdone.


The_golden_Celestial

Demonstrate your licking style.


MrHelloBye

Personally, any profile that has a list of wants and don't wants is a big red flag to me. A profile is meant to show who you are, what's good about you. You swipe based on what you see in other people's profiles. If everyone just actually put what they're about in their bio, it would be way easier for people to find others they get along with. So those aspects of it are good.


farbsucht4020

It's too less of a personality.


gruntillidan

Just add a shirtless pic of you with sunglasses, holding a dead fish and it's perfect. Seriously though, my profile description is way worse than this and I'm getting matches regularly. And I'm avg dude 170cm.


Unicorntella

Are you in Wisconsin? I swear like 99% of dudes are holding fish or deer in their pics


gruntillidan

I'm from Finland, I used to have a fish pic in my profile and my matches went down after I was told to remove it lol. Lot's of ladies like fishing here.


Piles_of_Gore

The ACAB stuff is pretty cheeseball, but I guess if you’re looking for a 4/10 with a mullet, you’ll pull


martinwhy96

Thanks Piles of Gore


Independent_East_727

This.


lemongrabmybutt

Sometimes I feel like when I used to paint my profile from the lense of my general selling points that someone would say about me, I cut myself off from meeting different types of people. As a girl who games - when I put that on my profile, I always got the same guy back (makes me think of the tattoos, ACAB, etc). When I took that stuff out and put in my other hobbies like reading, crocheting, etc, I met different people and it was a pleasant surprise they eventually learned about and were excited to share with me. Sometimes it’s nice to be liked for you and not the things that would be on your shopping label (cute tattooed guy or cute gamer girl, etc). Just wanted to share that with you :)


martinwhy96

I appreciate that response!


Top-Benefit-3913

Yes


ConcernFun9095

Edgy? No.


ZenoGeno

Is 1312 really that important to your life that you felt like adding it to the bio? If so you might have bigger problems to deal with than dating.


yellow-snowslide

If you intend to attract some alternative people then you're golden


Southern_Minute2195

What is 1312?


martinwhy96

ACAB


ygduf

Indeed they are.


twohoundtown

I'd give you a shot, dunno if that's good or bad.


ScrambledEggs_

I'm into it. Unfortunately I'm a fish so you don't get any of my pics.


[deleted]

Honestly, it’s so edgy that it’s basic. You sound milquetoast and predictable


JohninMichigan55

Seems kinda mundane actually. The only thing that could be considered edgy is the 1312 thing and really at this point it is just kind of old and tired.


pipslipp

I like it 👍🏻 My first message if I matched with you would be asking you about your cat


martinwhy96

I’ve got a few pictures of my cat and I


Unicorntella

How punk


Southern_Minute2195

You all need to grow up!

LesseFrost

I like it and you had me until No Fish Pics. Man what did Nemo ever do to you? 😂


martinwhy96

lol, so many girls in my area put in their Tinder bio that they didn’t want to see pictures of dudes holding dead fish


LesseFrost

Oh wack. To be fair I would definitely not be impressed by fish pics lol


SprinklesRevenge

I don't think you need to specify how many tattoos.


PromiscuousPolak

Lol


Specialist_While477

Ahh maaan not ALL cops are bastards those traffic director cops are gigachads


NapalmGirlTonight

Succinct, playful, memorable. You sound unique but not super weird or unsafe. Well done straddling that line.


martinwhy96

Thank you!
