- Amargo Couture compiled some of their funniest answers into a TikTok series
- The TikToker cheekily dubbed the series ‘The Golden Bachelor: UnHinged’
- Answers ranged from humorously earnest to heavy on dad-joke energy
A woman has gone viral on TikTok after sharing the hilarious profiles she came across when she adjusted her settings on the Hinge dating app to show her potential matches who were men between 60 and 100 years old.
Amargo Couture, a registered dietician based in San Diego in her late 20s, tweaked the settings on her Hinge account out of sheer curiosity, and upon swiping through the profiles, she was instantly tickled at many of the men’s recorded ‘audio’ answers to the app’s pre-written prompts.
Curating quite a selection of the most memorable examples – ranging from amusingly blunt and endearingly earnest responses to heavy dad-joke energy and beyond – she edited the clips together into a TikTok series that she humorously dubbed: ‘The Golden Bachelor: Unhinged.’
In one instance, a senior named Morris can be heard finishing the prompt, ‘I know the best spot in town for…’ with a succinct declaration: ‘Fish tacos.’
In response to ‘My BFF’s take on why you should date me,’ a man named James started off-topic, saying: ‘I hope you’re having a G day. G stands for Good. Why should you date me?’ But that ‘why’ was never given as the audio then cut off.
A man named John, responding to the prompt ‘My simple pleasures,’ gushed: ‘I love to please my partner in every way possible.’
Answering ‘Let’s break they ice by…,’ someone named Buck hissed into the mic, ‘Hi, my name’s Buck – and you know what I like to do,’ with the implication that his ice-breaking hobby of choice is a four-letter word rhyming with his name.
An older man named Bill, responding to the prompt, ‘The key to my heart is…,’ charmingly offered: ‘Just be you. I won’t try to change you because that’s not my job. If you want to change, you change. I will accept you just the way you are.’
Then, someone named Dave, answering ‘I’m the type of texter who…,’ responded with the dad joke: ‘Has a keyboard.’
Amargo subsequently shared several more videos presenting other hilarious audio-answer gems she had found.
One man named David boasted: ‘Dating me is like an intellectual joyride.’
Another highlight was a buttoned-up looking man named Brian lamenting: ‘My nieces and nephews are starting to have kids, and I told them that being called great uncle makes me feel too old.
‘So I suggested Gunkle for short – but then found out that’s actually short for a gay uncle. Which isn’t what I was going for. So here are the options I gave them. Grunkle, for short, greatest uncle; or my personal favorite, Huncle – which is short for heterosexual uncle. What do you think?’
Also memorable was a plea from a man named Franky, who entreated: ‘Don’t hate me if I don’t work as hard as you. I just don’t! I’m done! I’ve done that! I’m not doing that anymore!’
In a somewhat off-putting remark, one potential date named Mark responded to the prompt, ‘A shower thought I recently had…,’ with: ‘I wish someone was in here with me to scrub my back.’
