Tiddlywinks

In college I used to get drunk and play a game I called "Getting on my friend's facebook accounts and poking people they aren't really friends with"; Drunky Pokes for short. Remember that terrible girl in college who was a year younger than you, hung out with the same fraternity you did, and would often yell things in unison with her friends like "Yea bitches!!!". She got poked a lot during Drunky Pokes. So did the random dude you did a group project with in econ, random dude you made out with 3 years ago, and maybe your cousin. Drunky Pokes was the best and always led to a lot of laughter, confusion and password changing.

Upon my return for the bars last night Drunky Pokes was reborn in an adaptation I'll call: "Getting on my Dating Site # 1 account and winking at random men I have no interest in"; Tiddlywinks for short. The drunk me thought this game was hilarious. The sober me thinks this game is dangerous and sad. My wink count went from 0 yesterday to 17 today. All of the men who received tiddlywinks were among those that have already winked at me. Quick cross section of tiddlywink recipients:

Gregory - 22; works in IT; divorced; total ginge; talks about atheism a lot.
CaucasianShrek - 37; works in IT; 6' 7"; mentioned he owns a boat 7 times in his profile.
SPORTSYAAAA - See earlier post.
LargeBlackMan - 33; divorced; large black man; hobbies include Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai Kickboxing, killing people, and cooking*.
Dr. Love - 35; Indian Doctor; 6' 6"; describes his life as being "basically the storyline for Harry Potter"

*I made up one of those hobbies. Can you tell which one?
