‘Are you on it?’
‘On what?’
‘The Platform.’
‘Nah man, shit’s weird to me.’
‘Dude, you have to try it.’
‘Sending dick pics is stupid enough. I’m not sharing mine with the world.’
‘You’re insecure. And plus it’s private. And you only see hot girls who also like you. Or you can see everyone and everything if you’re into that.’
‘So bizarre.’
‘This Brazilian chick and I had Zoom sex for 45 minutes last night.’
‘What?’
‘No joke. She stripped and played with herself and then watched me. Doesn’t speak a lick of English. We met Tuesday.’
‘Unbelievable.’
‘It’s a modern miracle. Sharing your junk with the world. No matter what body type or setup downstairs there’s some kinky cute chick in the world looking for that, swear to God. It’s all anonymous and secure. Just put that shit out there and see who bites, so to speak.’
‘Nothing is secure on the internet.‘
‘Well for some of us it’s all we have. Dude, you would shred. You can meet local girls too. AND THEY’RE ALL ON THERE. I saw the chick who bags groceries at the Co-op. Massive knockers. We went to lunch, well, she brought me soup from the co-op and then we banged on my couch if that counts as lunch. It’s a whole new world, brother.’
‘I just can’t imagine this leading to healthy self-esteems or proper values in terms of inward v outward beauty.’
‘Don’t try to hypothesize this. This is a win for everyone.’
‘Not really. It’s performative attraction. What they look like is not who they are.’
‘18-year-olds. That’s all I’m saying.’
‘Yeah, like that isn’t ripe for exploitation.’
‘All you do is see the bad in things. Try to see the good. The whole world is connected now in a more intimate way.’
‘But it’s fake. The attention isn’t of value.’
‘I think you’re missing the point. The point being getting laid on the regular with fine ass chicks, bro.’
‘I think that’s fine for a while but it doesn’t get you anywhere. And how many countless woman are doing the same? It’s not creating meaningful connections or else you’d stop. How many of these women do you talk to after you hookup?’
‘Well I see the coop girl when I buy hummus.’
‘You BUY hummus?’
‘Yeah dude, why? Is it easy to make or something?’
‘Tahini, a can of beans, and some water.’
‘Oh dude I need to try that out. Wonder if my delivery guy knows where the Tahini is, he had a hell of a time finding oregano.’
