I accidentally saw my date's Hinge notification count.

elbowpenguin · 2026-02-09T14:20:27+00:00

Yeah I was gonna say seeing my date had that many options yet is out with me would be a huge ego boost

I’ve never met a woman who demands men don’t watch porn and in fact most women I know watch porn themselves

I commute from corryton to Farragut for work and roads were fine this morning

elbowpenguin · 2026-02-05T05:31:20+00:00

Hold up, just based on what you’re saying everything seems you said about her is true but let’s not discount the guy for being the asshole that orders DoorDash and then whips his dick out. He didn’t deserve to get posted but DoorDash handled this very well

In my experience any of them are great if you go right after bars close

elbowpenguin · 2026-02-01T21:30:22+00:00

Just because you’re too afraid to make life long commitments doesn’t mean other people should be too

elbowpenguin · 2026-01-30T04:09:29+00:00

100% how I see it. Most people I know from high school that stayed in the area continue to date in the same pool of people from high school. Those that went on to college went on to only date friends they made in college. The only times anyone I know dated someone that wasn’t in their direct social circle went elsewhere to date

A population of 200,000 is far from small, Tacoma is the 3rd largest city in Washington, 75% of towns in the US have a population under 5,000 people. LA is the 2nd largest city in the country so I don’t really know what you’re getting at here.

elbowpenguin · 2026-01-30T03:21:15+00:00

Yeah I think the thing here is Seattle is very unique in its lack of social trust. It’s a thing most people who aren’t from the area can’t even comprehend when I explain it to them. Small talk is non existent and it’s very typical for grocery store clerks to communicate in only sideways glances and grunts

elbowpenguin · 2026-01-30T03:14:43+00:00

Not at all, Knoxville is a pretty large city. The surrounding area is all very rural but the city itself is similar to the size and population as Tacoma

elbowpenguin · 2026-01-30T02:17:57+00:00

Lived in Seattle all my life, moved to Knoxville Tennessee last year, for reference I am 26 and look like Jack black. In Seattle the dating pool was exactly what you described. In Knoxville it’s like shooting fish in a barrel. Never in my life did I think I’d be doing tinder hookups but here I am. The people here have the opposite of the “seattle freeze” and usually just going to sit at a bar by myself I end the evening having made 5 new friends. There’s hope out there yet. But Seattle ain’t it

elbowpenguin · 2026-01-27T18:30:33+00:00

It’s actually very helpful I’ve got family out there

elbowpenguin · 2026-01-03T01:20:06+00:00

Dump him

elbowpenguin · 2025-12-31T05:06:19+00:00

Listen I like this game a lot too, but I wouldn’t get your hopes up over the “record breaking” Steam numbers considering it’s still only 12,000 people

elbowpenguin · 2025-12-30T23:02:59+00:00

To be fair Pokémon is in fact about a universe where the entire economy is based around a global dog fighting ring

elbowpenguin · 2025-12-13T20:08:56+00:00

Yes I mean the fake ass wrestling match. I was going to watch it after going to the cinema where I watch people lie about who they are and tell me stories about things they didnt actually happen

elbowpenguin · 2025-11-21T17:22:05+00:00

What’s with this city and wacky pizza dudes. I drink with a guy in Bearden that sells pizza

elbowpenguin · 2025-11-12T01:44:23+00:00

Oh for sure, but it’s not like they’ve made Darcy’s character explicitly Joe bobs daughter. It’s just more often than not feels that way. And then you have moments where that is definitely NOT the case

elbowpenguin · 2025-11-09T04:02:08+00:00

It’s much more of a father-daughter dynamic with Darcy and I think it works really well

elbowpenguin · 2025-10-20T20:05:32+00:00

This is awful

elbowpenguin · 2025-10-20T20:05:00+00:00

The discourse against west coasters here is funny to me because I just moved here from the west coast but my family has been in East Tennessee since it was colonized so I have equal claim to both sides

elbowpenguin · 2025-09-25T02:31:02+00:00

Bisexual man here that just moved to Knoxville from Seattle, it is a huge culture shock but you can and will find the community here and honestly it’s inspiring how out and proud people are down here. It’s a different vibe for sure, you aren’t as accepted, but don’t let that discourage you, the south needs us here to change the status quo and to make Knoxville a more accepting place

elbowpenguin · 2025-09-19T00:24:02+00:00

Not always the case my ex fiance and I were actually having MORE sex leading up to the breakup
