The premise is so obvious, you’ll kick yourself for not thinking of it first. You install the app, then the app lists your Facebook friends of the opposite sex. You click if you’d like to “bang” them, and no one ever knows . . . that is, unless one of those friends installed the app and elected to bang you, too. Bang With Friends makes finding a mate as easy as window shopping on Pinterest.


This seems like the logical conclusion of social media, it has been distilled into what we all use it for. Now I dont know about you guys, but I dont have a single friend I wouldnt want to gently caress in some way or another.

Inevitably depressing when I click on every friend as a bang proposition and never get any hits back.

Pick a number, any number.

Couldn't people kinda cheat the system by just checking to see if they got a match and if it's a miss undoing it? I mean other person would know you checked if there is a match but it's not like it's a contractual obligation.

The million dollar idea is to invent the same app but with a ctrl+A feature.

No, see, my friend who was standing right next to me took it, unlocked the screen, downloaded the app, waited for the app to install, and then clicked on you! I tried to stop him, that wily devil!

The description implies that you only see if someone said they'd bang you/vice-versa if it is mutual, so at least the obvious awkward first day after isn't a guarantee.

I wouldn't even bring it up. Just smile and pretend I'm totally clueless for a bit, then at some point just drop the "So...That Bang with Friends...Hell of a thing eh?" If it's going to be awkward, it might as well be heart sinking, showing up to class naked awkward.

They only know if they reciprocate. Otherwise, nobody sees your bang list.

Technically Facebook doesn't allow under 13 year olds to register so it's ephebophilia not pedophilia ok

It circumvents the awkwardness of getting turned down.

If you never hear about it afterwards and she hasn't propositioned yourself via the app then I think it's safe to consider yourself turned down

It eliminates the fear of rejection because the person only finds out if the feeling is mutual. So basically it's great if you're a huge coward.

After about a year of this being out they should charge a premium to see who your partner has propositioned. Instant money

This is how you do it. Forget the app, just write down a couple of names and go door to door with a bottle of massage oil and wearing one of those stupid elephant thongs. Carpe libido!

I installed the app for shits and giggles. It defaults to the opposite sex but there's a pair of buttons that filters either gender in or out.

You could click "yes" for all of your friends to see who wants to bang you, but that would create some awkward moments if any of your friends said yes for the same reason.

I'm sure this will end like the similar things from myspace that were around a decade ago -- they gather data like this for a while and then 2 or 3 months later they just sell the results to people who want to see who it is that wants to gently caress them.
