Post subject:  Cant decide if I'm being funny or a dick

Hi guys,

So I've been experimenting with online dating and basically looking at which lines seem to work better and which don't etc, the problem I'm having is being witty. I have a really dark sense of humour, and I'm really cynical and sarcastic which works fine in person because I can pull it off, but online seems to be a different story. I thought I was being funny but my friend had a read and although laughed said I was being a bit too savage, so I've put a few down and I would like your guys honest thoughts:

Had something about finding a good egg:
You can tell if an egg is good or bad by putting in in water, bad ones float
^
(Thats actually true by the way)

This girl wrote something about how precious her time is or something like that
Your time must be extremely precious to spell anyone's as any1

Said on her profile 1 in a million
There's 7000 people just like you.... statistically speaking

Girl had every picture with a snapchat filter with something like show me something different
None of my pictures have a snapchat filter

Had a profile calling loads of other people fake etc:
I feel like you should have a Donald Trump Fake News Meme as one of your pictures

Anyway you guys kinda get the idea, personally I thought they were pretty funny, but do you think it's too harsh for online?

I didn't read it just figured you were a Dick Wat... lmao.

Those type of lines go really well or really poorly.

I tend to start with a genuine compliment if I go for that then move to the humor... it shows I'm good but have a sense of humor.

Mate I really am since starting medical school, I've just realised I can no longer tolerate fools :lol: I think it might be turning into a genuine problem where I can't help to read something and just see all the crap haha

Some were good so were Eh

What online dating app are you using?

The response rates on the spam sites (okcupid or POF) aren't as high as those on the app in which the women have to approve the conversation before it occurs (cmb, tinder).

It's really a waste of energy thinking of creative things to say before even getting the conversation started because of this. Find a simple line i.e. "Hey there, you seem semi-normal. How's it going?" or anything with the tinge of humor to it and just spam. Start getting funny and creative during the conversations, not so much the openers. It's just a way to break the ice.

Also make sure you have at least 3 good quality photos and that same humor within your profile. A good deal of girls do look at it.
