One time I matched with a girl and every single one of her profile pictures was her in the same bathroom wearing the same outfit but in the background of each were various different anime characters.
My opening line was "man I hate when people only have group photos, it's so hard to tell who I actually matched with"
They called me a dumbass and unmatched me.

lol there is something I love about throwing insane shit at people I match with. Like…break the ice in an interesting way. I’d be so grateful if anyone did that to break the ice with me. I mean, it happens, but—and not to generalize or anything—in my experience women know they don’t have to put as much effort in, so I just get a match and a “hi” most of the time.
But here I am pulling the most clever and endearing jokes I can muster over and over again. At some point you gotta just start kinda fucking with people depending on your mood and hope they have a sense of humor.
They often don’t. But sometimes they do.
