When you’re actually using the app instead of having the compression artifacts of being screenshot several times, it’s not as bad.

I don’t care if you’re watching it in 32k on Odin’s personal account, white on yellow is NEVER acceptable for ANYTHING.

It doesn’t make it less of a crime against good design. Low contrast for reading is bad practice.

If someone does not take the least amount of effort to answer a simple question like that one … then he doesn’t care about you in the slightest.

“But its a generic question!”

Two words: common courtesy.

People (guys usually) also answer like this when they are trying to tell you exactly what you want to hear so that you’ll sleep with them. They feel like if they give any wrong answer early on, they’ve lost their chance. It’s a very manipulative mindset. He was like a deer in the headlights, not knowing if any answer he gave would be the right answer since he doesn’t know her at all yet. So he stalls, hoping she’ll drop it.

Or he might just be an idiot.

Either way, drop them and move on to somebody who will be real with you.

In other words, playing games, i.e trying to “tick her funne bone” so he gets someone else to play instead of himself. But what most of those guys fail to acknowledge is that “tickling her funne bone” takes time – it’s not a “free pussy pass” of any sort that you “say it”, and she goes “WHOOAAA fuck me mister! Fuck me right NOW!”. That is not “acting tough” or smart, but acting like a douche.

Yeah, that was my thought as well. This is the type of person who is only going to say something of they think it will impress you. The second possibility is that they will share nothing of themselves, period. In either case, they don’t seem like good relationship material.

What he gave was the wrong answer IMO.

To be fair, that’s usually correct. Women have their pick of men, generally. If a guy answers a band she doesn’t like, most likely she’ll move on.

So guys lie and tell her everything she wants to hear. And then once they get their foot in the door, they can start telling the truth.

This guy handled it very badly but I can see why he didn’t want to answer.

Yeah I may not be a relationship expert but if I have to lie for an ice breaker not even a deep question just an ice breaker I don’t think that relation will work

Nah it’s one of those things where some guys just prefer to talk about what they think matters to everyone, their job or financial conditions, music or other personal stuff might just be an extra on their minds

So an idiot.

If someone asks you about your taste in music, then clearly music matters to them.

It’s kind of nice when people reveal themselves to be insufferable douchebags at the outset rather than wasting your time.

The last four songs I’ve listened to on YouTube are three pirate shanties and “We Know The Way” from the Moana soundtrack. I’m not answering this question either. :)

Smart move. Wouldn’t want to intimidate anyone with your superior taste in music

Honestly though that’s the exact kind of thing I would want to know- the real you, not the you that tell me you are.
