The end is near. My friends are using ChatGPT to respond on Hinge. Their friends are seeking to cut the middleman out entirely and match people with AI (shoutout Known). Today in the year of our lord 2026, I instead embrace a RETURN TO TRADITION 00s Internet forum style. About me: - 6’1 Asian man, engineering grad student (22). - Enjoys sci-fi, music, biographies, classic movies and traveling. - Believer in hobbies for enjoyment, not optimization. Some include tennis, reading, hiking, woodworking, skiing (skill level varies). - Enjoys living life, meeting people and learning new things About you: - Man. About eye-level with me or taller, and enjoys reading. - Athletic and enjoys long walks around campus. - A pillar of your community; if you were an RA / group chat trip planner / the eldest sibling growing up, this applies to you. - Thinks deeply about the consequences of your career; reconciling your desire to push the frontier of human innovation with a moral obligation to do good (read: future Palantir employees need not apply). - Healthy relationship with parents (extra hands to raise our double-legacy test-tube babies while we build our careers). - Hungry to experience all the different things life has to offer; could mean tracing the historic Silk Road by foot together, or lying outside to watch a clear night sky on a weekday night. - A little weird. - Bonus: good with your hands, handy in a natural disaster or a car crash (the San Andreas Fault is due anytime now I think). Also, being able to change oil is sexy About us, in 2-5 business days: - Dinner, and a movie of your choice If interested, please inquire within —————>
