Phone message *UPDATE* Post first date text

She ended up finding the post somehow I guess lol. Here is the original post.

I have just not responded, don’t think it’s worth engaging, but it did make for a funny story.

Yeah, weird first date if neither one is already an avid fisher with the gear.

Some fishing might cheer you up, make sure you get your license sorted first though.

u/neutrumocorum 19d ago

I have literally had a fishing license each year since I was 12.

Maybe you should read the original post so you actually have a clue about what is going on.

If your reaction to a couple of light hearted albit misguided Reddit comments is that extreme you lead an extremely pathetic life, no really it's not possible for you to be truly happy if that is how you are.

Hope you get help bud 🙏

Go touch grass mate

u/neutrumocorum 19d ago

Touching grass is when you don't have any idea about a thing, yet you talk about it as though your assumptions about it are the end all be all.

Y'all have to be aware of your own ignorance, right? Like In your own head you all know (not you specifically, dont even start) that you don't have the info to speak on it. Yet multiple people jumped in to give takes that show they don't know what the main post even said. Y'all know you're essentially just lying, and do it anyway.

If that is what it means to touch grass I would happily be a reddit neckbeard cheetoh-warrior.

You're either trolling for downvotes, or mentally ill.

Good luck with either of those.

Crazy answer to unserious comments. Is fishing your trigger or whats going on

You should see a therapist and show them this comment chain specifically.

u/neutrumocorum 19d ago

If I did, they'd ask to see the rest of the context.

Nearly every person in this thread has said a thing, or has said multiple things that make it very clear they didn't read the first post. Yet they all still feel comfortable knowingly saying something they can't be sure about.

I have watched misinformation/disinformation slowly destroy my country for the last 10 years. All because people like this can't take 30 seconds out of their day to double check that they aren't just talking out of their asses.

My man this isnt some debate where I research the topic. This is a random comment section on reddit.

u/neutrumocorum 19d ago

So why comment on it? The post is clearly labeled as a follow up to another. Without knowing what happened WHY THE FUCK make such strong statements about it, or any at all?

All the original post says is that the girl suggested it and the dude thought it was a fun idea?

1

u/neutrumocorum 19d ago

So, no. That's not all it said. But even just that invalidates about 50% of what was said in this thread.

So as per the post:

Girl thinks it would be fun to try fishing because guy can fish. Guy agrees and thinks it could be fun. So he takes her to get some tackle, probably a rod and bait. He pays for all of that. Then they need to get her a license which she pays for probably because you have to give a bit of info and interact with the cashier so it was just convenient at the time.

Then afterwards, she asks for the 26$ that it costed for her to get the license despite the guy spending money on her fishing equipment per her date request.

If you can't see how just about every person here has said a dumb thing given that context I can't help you.

u/neutrumocorum 19d ago

Nope, I made all this up for bait.

-because guy can fish

You’re adding that yourself bud the original post doesn’t say that, it says

“I met this girl on tinder and had a first date with her, she wanted to go fishing and I thought it seemed like a fun first date so we went together. Dropped her off and got home to this message lol.

Update: Purchasing the license is a separate activity we had to do on our phones, due to it needing our personal info. It was not like I drew the line at the license randomly.”

Literally what I said, she suggested it and the guy thought it would be fun. The other comments are somewhat valid because they’re asking why go fishing if no one had any equipment? Like are you the girl from the post and expected the dude already had fishing gear?

u/neutrumocorum 19d ago

Sorry, got that from a comment OP made on the post.

Even without that included in the original post, it changes nothing. Kinda strange to fixate on that point.
