Tinder convo turns into outrageous battle with tentacles and clones

With online dating, sometimes it’s love at first swipe. But sometimes you really have to work for that other person’s attention and set yourself apart from the rest of the fish in the sea with winking emojis and witty jokes. One dude found the perfect way to woo a lover: an epic battle of clones versus an octopus beast.

OK, let’s back up just a bit. So Imgurian ayeman matched with a woman named Jennifer on Tinder and started off the conversation with a clever opener. Things seemed to be going normally, but then it all went from 0 to 60.

While most people might shut this down at the whole “[tears your head off in sacrificial rage and bathes in your blood],” the grotesquerie was just piquing the lovebirds’ interest. The two of them really committed to fleshing out this scenario.

Unfortunately, it ends there, and we don’t know if the clone man and fire-breathing octopus woman ever met up for an actual date. But this sure is an unforgettable way to flirt.
