The pay to chat thing is weird. I mean we all know the answer but why would a person not just move off to a free chat program once they make a connection unless it was just a blatant scam

Someone on Reddit who used to work for one of those sites described it as: the girl agrees for her likeness to be used, and there's a second person who works for the site who's actually doing the chatting. If, for some reason, the person wants to meet the person that they think they're talking to, the person who's actually been doing the chatting comes along as an "interpreter", since they're the only one who knows what's been talked about. The site/chat person/original girl split the revenue from the chat.

So, there's never a chance that it moves off of paid chat.

Yes, but why would all the sad Davids not realize something is up. Again, we know the answer but it just blows my mind that you can be told "nah I don't care for WhatsApp/WeChat/whatever let's keep spending money to chat on this AOL Instant Messanger knockoff instead" and not bat an eye

Well, it's on TLC so...
I think most people watching it either have cable, or are watching it on an app such as the TLC Go app.
If you have a sibling / parent who doesnt use the streaming version of their cable package you can generally borrow it from them and log in

Everyone is so cringe this season. Darcy is slowly morphing into Donatella Versace. Guy from Las Vegas wants to drive to an area where a war is going on to try and track down someone who probably has had their image licensed, so on the chance he does find her, he’s going to be haranguing someone who has no idea who he is or wtf he’s on about, and that’s assuming she speaks English at all. He’s getting kind of scary about this. Rose seems cool though. Tom lost weight and is looking better than previous. The girl who went to Australia seems to have had the realization that she needs to start liking certain body parts if this is going to work out and is not super excited about it. Her gf is cute but is really bad at hiding her disappointment.

I like to think Darcy is more turning herself into the image of a used up has been porn star as an art project and that she's actually sophisticated enough to be able to spell most of those words. Then I think back to YOU HAVE TO CUT IT ON A BIAS!!! and snap back to our covid-drenched reality that she's somehow so self loathing that she will eventually start crying pure everclear.

Always remember that the former President was dumber than the dumbest person you've ever met by a wide margin

Sojaboy's new music video was one of the funniest things I've ever seen in my life. Lisa's picture at the end popping up like it was her funeral, everybody just staring, it was an amazing bit of comedy.

Darcy has some kind of untreated mental illness and I hope she can get the help she needs. Her meeting with Tom at the end, she walked in like it was some kind of secret agent rendezvous or something. She seems to live her entire life with the idea of "How can I make this as dramatic as possible?".

I attribute it to having no self-confidence or dating experience, a healthy dose of self-delusion and the idea that young beautiful Ukrainian women get wet at the thought of any American man and somehow do not care that you are fat, old and boring.

So one time I worked at The Gap and there was this guy who dyed his hair blacker than my cursed heart and slicked it back with brilliantine. Literally, brilliantine. Anyways, he was Pony levels of greasy and jeeeeeSUS.

i cant fix avs like this because idk the bbcode - HTML IS BS MAN
I’ve just been binging through the current season to catch up, had a brain fart when reading the thread and seeing Usman - took a few posts to recall it was Sojaboy.

This season is over-ripe with assholes and sadness and I’m struggling to root for any of them. YouTube immunodeficient girl and manic pixie Australian girl might be okay but I feel like I’d hate both of them if I met them in social circumstances.

It’s interesting to see Australians, as an Australian. Ash looks like an rear end in a top hat with coke eyes, he’s too slick by far and if that relationship goes longer than a season of 90 day I’ll be shocked. I did see this article:

quote:

Ash Naeck opens up about fighting Graves' Disease after being the victim of intense internet bullying. The holistic Australian decided it was time to set the record straight, as he realized that the bullies who were mocking his eyes weren't aware of his disorder that could cause facial abnormalities.
So maybe that’s not nice to say about him...

quote:

Since airing their love story, Ash has been getting slammed by the internet trolls about how his eyes seem to bulge out. Bullies everywhere have been relentless at insulting the way he looks, while the reality star has remained silent on the matter. Everything changed when Ash decided to speak out on March 24th via his Instagram.

Instagram post posted:

Yes I have battled Hyperactive Thyroid since I was 21 and at this stage maybe Graves’ disease after consulting with a Naturopath and holistic health expert
Oh, deffo still calling them bugged out coke eyes in that case.

I’m trying to root for the girls but the cynical part of me is convinced that this is 90% an act to improve their careers as social media personalities. I don’t doubt that they like each other but Steph’s babe-in-the-bisexual-woods routine seems staged.
