The biggest problem with American elections is that they seem to go for like 18 months. I am so fucking sick of hearing about them by the time they finish and then it all starts up again too soon.

Don't worry, Big Poppa Trump will take care of that.

To be fair, nobody would complain about eighteen months of Game of Thrones. Transdimension shapeshifting reptiloids are the showerunners for American politics.

I don't have experience with dating sites.
I can usually think of something to say to people but going in totally blind it's a bit harderis there anything in her profile or pics to go on that you could ask about or comment on?

She's doing a masters so I could ask what in, or why she moved from the US to Brighton or a load of other stuff like that but I don't know how to make it sound like a natural start to a conversation

Do you give a shit about her and what her hobbies/interests are.
If Y; ask as you naturally would and go from there.
If N; move on.
Just asks. Ask for your own curiosity. Ask for her perspective and insight. Engage discussion. Request a meetup.

Start with an ice breaker (how's it going?) and then start asking questions (not too many or too fast though) to give you something to latch onto
Example:
You: so what do you do for fun?
Her: I like movies!
You: what kind? I like ____
Rinse and repeat

I stopped at the first line. I hate people who define themselves by their labels. Fucking pussy ass TumblrIna bullshit.
Hmmm...I would naturally start with a joke about the relationship between English people and Americans. Involve a soft political or historical pun, but don't tease her with stuff like 'bringing freedom' and shit, I think it would rather escalate into a discussion about contemporary politics than break the ice in a way that makes her feel comfortable.

Oh yeah totally, I just wanted something there so that there was a topic for it to flow into a fuller conversation if that makes sense?
I think I'll go for something like that, plus since she's mentioned Twin Peaks I'll throw in a reference to that. Because everyone who likes Twin Peaks is cool. It's a rule of nature
Thanks for the help everyone c:

See, the problem here is asking as I naturally would is not asking
Ask her about the things she's into and why. Engage. See if she's interesting.

We should start skyping every evening so I can bore you to sleep by elaborating on the significance of Morrowind's lore building and comparing it to its sequels.
Afterwards I will kitty talk with your cats :3

Elder Scrolls was a mistake. It is nothing but trash.

You can wash a lot of electronics in the dishwasher trick is being patient enough for them to dry completely. I used to do it with my keyboards at work except the down-arrow broke on my #1 keyboard and I cannot work without it.
Elder Scrolls games were never great tho.

I have fond memories of Oblivion. But yeah, they were never that good.
Even the lore and general world building are almost painfully generic.

what's up with gays hating Elder Scrolls?
I'm not really a fan either
I just hate overrated garbage that is not even decent at what is supposed to do. Combat is shit and the world building is not that great. Just because the world is huge it doesnt make it automatically great. Call me when they dont dumb down the RPG elements with each sequel and when the writing is memorable with interesting quests.
Elder Scrolls games are largely mediocre but notable because, at least for a very long time, were offering an experience no one else was offering.
And while they're weak in many individual respects, they (at least Oblivion and Skyrim -- I forget if this was the case with Morrowind) had absolutely gorgeous music. Like this is the area where it's never mediocre. I only wish the games themselves could ever reach the soaring heights of the soundtracks.

Witcher 3 won especially in terms of interesting quest writing.

Witcher 3 also won in having controls and combat so frustratingly bad (after just coming off of Bloodborne) I couldn't even hang with it. I plan to try again sometime just to see if the story ends up making it worth it.
