I’d greatly appreciate it if you guys could critique my okcupid profile. I don’t want to post a link to it for privacy reasons, so I’ll just copy and paste the profile.
Here is my profile:
My self-summary
Hi there. I grew up in [southern state] (but I don’t have a southern accent), went to college in [state], and now I’m working in [state]. I’m working in drug development blah blah this sounds like a cover letter. Yeah, I suck at writing cover letters.
My Myers-Briggs type is "oh, this looks interesting...wait, how long is this thing!?"
What I’m doing with my life
Stuff.
I’m really good at
Doing impersonations (especially Irish).
The first things people usually notice about me
Can I see your tattoos?
When did you get them done?
Where did you get them done?
How much did they cost?
How long did it take?
What do they mean?
Did it hurt?
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Music: Mainly indie rock, indie pop, electronica and punk.
Movies: I like all kinds of genres, but my favorite is horror. I also really like sci-fi.
TV shows: Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, Boardwalk Empire, The Sopranos, The Wire, Homeland, Key and Peele and more.
Food: Human flesh. I'm up for anything.
The six things I could never do without
Food…water…look at this wit!
I spend a lot of time thinking about
The inevitable zombie apocalypse.
On a typical Friday night I am
Robbing a bank.
You should message me if
You promise not to chop me up in your basement.

In the pictures section, it has a bunch of pictures of me alone taken by someone else. One of them is a cropped picture of me drinking beer with some people and another is a cropped picture of me playing pool with some people (cropped as in it only shows me). The others are just me alone, but not in a social setting. Some of my pictures show my tattoos (I have 2 sleeve tattoos). I’m a very introverted person, so I don’t have any pictures of me doing anything interesting or exciting. That’s part of the reason why I don’t say too much about my life in my profile.
Your photos are much more important than your profile. Post it up if you'd like a critique... we can tell you which are good and bad pretty quickly. if you don't want to post em, feel free to PM them to me.
Your profile is pretty dry, and not especially humorous (and again, it doesn't matter that much - your pics matter).
I would definitely get rid of the line about eating human flesh. Zero women will find that attractive.
