Genius Idea for Dating Website!
1. Gitcher Groupon, Gitcher Groupon*
Surely I’m not the only person who gets gentle reminders all the time from Groupon and Living Social that my deals are about to expire. Yet it isn’t every day that I want to go to Top Golf or eat at a restaurant that sounded vaguely good in a neighborhood I never go to. But! If there were a website full of desperate people like me, we could go together. Random! Madcap! When Crazy Met Stalky! Dealless in DC! Jazzercise+Whole Foods gift baskets! Facials+ sushi! Hot yoga + bar food in a random bar where you don’t know anyone! Pedicures with a stranger + pho!
Instead of a profile, you’d lead with your available Groupons.
“SWF with half-price theater tickets seeks gastropub dealholder for awkward conversation about the arts”
“I see your H Street Country Club and raise you one Sticky Rice. Sake it to me!”
“I have a dozen overpriced cupcakes, you have cheap kayak lessons. Let’s see who pukes first.”
“Newseum ticketholder seeks tall dinner companion, Asian fusion preferred (the dinner not the man) (not that there’s anything wrong with that, it’s just not preferred) (but it would be fine!) (I’m 5’10)”
“Imagine me and you eating pie and then playing laser tag. Could sex be far behind that combo?”
*Like “Get Your Freak On”. Get it? Get it?

this is the greatest idea ever. i’d love to see this.
I will let you know as soon as I launch it
Hahahah! Awesome! FreakOn! Love it!
This is great. However RE: Asian-fusion, I have a wonderful tall Asian man. You should totally go for someone Asian.
I would love to date a nice tall Asian-fusion man…just making a little joke!
This is SUCH a good idea!! Please tell me you’re already in the process of kicking it off! I was just thinking this morning about how I have a tapas restaurant Groupon that I need to use, but it would be awesome if I could bring a guy instead of dragging my girlfriends along as usual.
Make it happen!!
