Self-Promotion

Good evening!

Wow, he took all that time to type out an entire scene from a movie, and he would have had better luck just listing this hobbies. 

Dave Touchstone just booked me for Koe’s in Stockton on 4/28 and a competition in Winters that is tentatively on 6/28.  I’m doing a show for second Saturday on 6/9 to support Amber Whitford’s charity, but I’m not sure where and when.  I will keep you all posted. 

Exciting things are happening.  I’m taking a writing class with Erin that requires me to write a book (which will more than likely end up being a short story or novella).   

Life is good.  I love you all, and will see you in the morning. 

Swiping Dealbreakers

Good evening!  I asked my friends on Facebook and Twitter to list things that are guaranteed left-swipes on dating apps, and this is a fairly comprehensive list.


1) Women in the picture (guys always claim it’s their sister)

2) Lots of group pictures where you can’t tell which one is the guy/girl

3) Selfies

4) Shirtless selfies

5) Gym selfies

6) Hotel room selfies

7) All selfies

8) People in their 30s “just looking for fun”

9) Saying in their profile that they went to the school of hard knocks (have you noticed that no one ever seems to graduate from this school?)

10) Flipping off the camera

11) Sticking out your tongue

12) A toilet in the background of a selfie (especially a metal toilet—like the prison selfie my friend received)

13) Facial tattoos

14) Civil war memorabilia

15) Pictures with your kids—I’ve touched on this subject before.  I would be too afraid of pedophiles

16) Cigarette smokers

17) Married men

18) Couples looking for a “bull” (I’m afraid to look it up on Urban Dictionary)

19) Too many political references in the profile (especially if they are extreme in either direction)

20) Appearing overly religious

21) Using the word “swolemate”

22) Bad grammar

23) Bad spelling

24) Pics taken far away so you can’t see the person's face

25) Extreme sports/fitness junkies

26) People who say “no drama” usually have a lot of it

27) People who look unclean

28) People who use lots of porn terms in their profile

29) “Separated” guys whose wives are actually just in the next room

30) Pictures of random things (and not the person)

31) People who say “I’m not racist, BUT”

32) When there is nothing written in the profile—only pics

33) Saying they’re looking for “someone special”

34) People who talk about how bored they are

35) Pics with your dog.  Is your dog coming on the date?  I would rather hang out with your dog, actually.


Want to add anything to the list or argue?  Comment below or e-mail me at nicole@thebeentheredonethatproject.com.

I'm probably going to be adding some different, non-dating-related content in the near future for reasons I'll get into at a later date.  If anyone has any ideas for that, you know where to find me.

I'm playing Doki Doki Literature Club and I'm almost at "that point", so I might not be sleeping much tonight.  Erin, let me know once you catch up!

See you guys in the morning.

Unproductive Superheroes

Good evening!  It has been a productive day.

I’m not sure if “vagas” is an accidental or deliberate typo.  Also, I’m scared to ask what “stacking” is. 

Today’s exciting news is that I have been asked to help with an animated series called Unproductive Superheroes.  Everything is still in the early stages, but I’ll be posting links as things go live. 

Time to get stuff done.  See you guys later.
