Thanks to all the dating apps for every imaginable niche and the millions of singles who use them, meeting people on the internet is easier than ever.

However, if you're actively searching for some form of romance online, talking to matches eventually starts feeling repetitive.

That's why it's so refreshing when every once in a while someone special drops by and acts like a total (creepy) lunatic. And that's where the Twitter account 'Incel pickup lines' comes in.

Asking its followers for the most pathetic attempts to pick up women online, it features the worst submissions it receives, reminding us that you just never really know who's lurking one swipe away.

Continue scrolling to check out its content and don't miss the chat we had on the topic with dating coach Hayley Quinn — you'll find it in between the images.

Women don't like to keep telling a guy how good he is!! The vibrator already knows he is good enough!!

Hayley Quinn, who has given an excellent TED talk titled 'Searching for love to escape ourselves', told Bored Panda that your initial text doesn't have to be too complicated.

"A first message should be a short, playful hello that is (where possible) personalized to someone's profile," Quinn said.

"Personalized messages will always outperform a more bland 'hey, how's it going?'. Messages that are humourous or silly often work well too. People don't want a factual exchange, they want to get a sense of your personality from the message you send."

If being friends with someone of the opposite sex is psychologically damaging for you then my man you need professional help and I'm sorry you turned out this way

"For example, if someone's into yoga, don't say, 'how long have you been doing that?' Instead, you could say, 'I hope the ability to do a headstand isn't a prerequisite for a first date?' or 'Could I convince you to ditch the yoga mat and come for a hike instead?'" the dating coach explained.

"Keep your messages short and whatever you do, don't ask someone out for a date on the first message you send!"

So what?? You jacked off at someone you thought was hot!! What's the big deal? Nobody would've known if you didn't say anything if you are embarrassed about it. My question is how many times have you done it with this say person's photo??

"The person you message might have 10 other messages they've received that day," Quinn noted. "Because of that if your message is too bland, it could get lost in the shuffle."

"The name of the game here is to be somewhat unique and back up what you send with a well-constructed profile. The next stage of the conversation is also important. Ask someone out too soon and they will feel like you're jumping to the next step before you've established a connection; ask someone out too late and the conversation might fizzle. Keep the momentum high in your conversations and if you're both not ready for a date yet, try having an in-app phone or video call instead," the dating coach recommended.

Ok, but the bear is cute. Just a victim, right? I think we can all agree on that.

However, before you get the chance to talk, you first need to charm your potential date with your profile.

"People have high expectations for a dating app profile, including Instagram-quality photos plus a well-written, short and witty [introduction]," Quinn said.

"The written part of your online dating profile is less about sharing factual information (i.e. what you do) and more about someone getting an instant sense of your personality when they read it," she added.

Hmm I don't get this. The person telling the other person to Google it is rude. The person inquiring obviously was trying to converse and learn about the other in a sincere way. I feel like the blue blurb person all the time!

"If the app offers the ability to add a voice note as well, this could prove to be an easy win for you. Recent research from Match showed that 17% of people saying they could tell if they were attracted to someone by the sound of their voice alone."

"Finally, when it comes to your pictures, avoid some obvious mistakes: poor lighting, too many group shots, cluttered backgrounds, or anything that makes it hard to see what you actually look like," the dating coach said.

I will never understand how they can say stuff like this and then say they’re a “nice guy” in the same sentence…the delusion boggles the mind

When somebody say STOP!! It means to stop. Don't come back with a sexualized greeting! The person said Please leave me alone. What part of that did you not understand?? Because now you're just a disgusting pig!!

We should all spam xdickhog44 on his snap and send him just stupid c**p and tell what a dork he is. Maybe he’ll be super embarrassed to know all his psycho babble is here for all the world to see. Lol

At least he knows to walk away and not look back. Too bad he thinks she'd follow.

Walk out where? Out of the water park? Past the parking lot? All the way home? How far does he have to walk before he can turn around?

Reminder that only a small percentage of people are this way, but they do tend to f**k things up for the rest of us.
