Sanitizing

The act of wiping your social media of all photographic evidence of a past relationship.

We broke up yesterday and I've already started sanitizing my Instagram. Once I sage my apartment, I'll officially be over it.

Fauci-ing

Declining to date someone because you don’t feel they’re taking COVID-19 seriously enough

If I had a nickel for every time I found myself fauci-ing someone this year, I could pay off my student loans.

Stalk-blocking

Making your social media accounts private so prospective dates can't creep on you, because hello – no one likes a creeper!

So we haven't even met in person but he already "liked" a bunch of photos deep on my Instagram, and that's when I knew I had to start stalk-blocking.

Waldo-ing

When someone only posts group photos on their dating profile, making it hard to determine who they are and what they look like.

This guy is totally guilty of waldo-ing – all his dating app photos are group pics! How am I supposed to know which one he is?!

Hey & Pray

Indiscriminately spamming every match with a basic "Hey there," "Hey you," "Hey," "Hi," and praying that someone will respond and be interested.

Ugh, this is the fifth guy this week to hey & pray me, what do you even say back to "hey"?

Twice Baked

When someone’s chat is twice baked and you have the same repetitive boring COVID convos, from sourdough to banana bread.

I just had to get out of that chat, it was so twice baked and I’m utterly sick of talking about the pandemic.
