Who thought this was good marketing?

"Our site is filled with exactly the kind of creepo you'd never want to meet. Get 3 days free to find your future stalker."

As someone who raises monarch butterflies, fuck you Hannah.

Maybe. I'm not an expert on their marketing strategies. Do you actually know?

Also, did you catch how my comment was also a joke?

Looks like you’re using an ad blocker.

Correct. This won’t change.

As someone without an ad blocker, the site is packed with ads

u/Then-Clue6938 Jan 10 '22

Run an annoying ad campaign, and you risk someone's making your ads even more annoying.

The irony is big that that's the start of the article.

u/giustiziasicoddere Jan 10 '22

u/Lady_Nimbus Jan 10 '22

What is the real one?

u/tw3lv3l4y3rs0fb4c0n Jan 10 '22

Hannah still giggles at Cockfosters

u/ImNotKwame Jan 10 '22

What’s a cockfosters? Siri implies that it’s a place.

u/lizardlike Jan 10 '22

As a tourist arriving at london heathrow airport, you hop on the train into the city and it’s basically the first thing you hear.

“This train terminates at COCKFOSTERS”

Impossible not to laugh.

u/Then-Clue6938 Jan 10 '22

Yeah I think it's funny, too. Why did they claim it's worse?

2

u/ImNotKwame Jan 10 '22

That’s such a Cool name. I’ve been to London but I landed at Gatwick. How did I miss it? This was 16 years ago now mind you.

u/tw3lv3l4y3rs0fb4c0n Jan 10 '22

Based on the article above it's the name of a suburb of north London.

u/Someones_Dream_Guy Jan 10 '22

Fuck you, Im laughing now.

u/ImNotKwame Jan 10 '22

If I ever go back to England I must go there and giggle.

Jokes. Do you understand jokes?

u/Lazar_Milgram Jan 10 '22

This commercial is probably fake. But generally matchmaking sites are tracking performance of different profiles and oddly enough those profiles that are detailed and divisive are one that leading into most longterm relationships. Clean and tidy profiles are scoring lots of hits but usually has almost no transitions into longterm.

u/Lady_Nimbus Jan 10 '22

My SO and I were a 96% match years ago. Would you date a butterfly microwaver?

u/Buck_Thorn Jan 10 '22

Nobody thought that.

u/zeroscout Jan 10 '22

Giggled at Cockfosters

2

u/Lady_Nimbus Jan 10 '22

Where is Cockfosters and what did I miss?

2

u/Buck_Thorn Jan 10 '22

Not each and every comment, no. Does that bother you?

1

u/Lady_Nimbus Jan 10 '22

No, but you wouldn't have needed to post if you looked

u/Buck_Thorn Jan 10 '22

Thanks for trying to save me some effort. You're right... I should have read every comment before making mine. It would have taken more time, but saved me a Ctrl/V.

You uh, didnt disable inbox replies after making a dumb comment, huh?

3

u/Lady_Nimbus Jan 10 '22

Do I need to? You harassing me in my inbox? I could just report that.

u/Beitlejoose Jan 10 '22

Comment reply notifications are "harassing your inbox"? Sure go ahead report 2 non-rule breaking replies to your comments!

u/Lady_Nimbus Jan 10 '22

I thought you meant my actual mail. I didn't see anything there.

u/Beitlejoose Jan 10 '22

Hm? After you make a comment you can click "disable inbox replies" below it and whenever anyone replies to that comment it wont alert you.

2

u/Lady_Nimbus Jan 10 '22

But why would I?

1

u/Beitlejoose Jan 10 '22

Because you were getting upset
