i feel like you're only really safe in cities like SF or NY just by sheer numbers
i mean really you're rolling the dice when it comes to free dating sites.
They're in one of if not the best area for OKC. I don't have a problem with it. I've seen and experienced some weird, but it's vastly outweighed by what you'd call regular people.
I'd love to hear some of the horror stories from smaller places.
I've never had bad experiences with OK Cupid, when I was living in a small city or when I first moved here. I've had not particularly good experiences obviously. But I mean... maybe you should ask yourself what about you is causing OK Cupid to match you with insane people.

Here are some fun stories. Grain of salt warning of course.
When I used it, I never really got anywhere near actual dating, just messages. Most of the time it was just super normal, but it was also the first and only time I've ever been asked "do you have your red wings yet?"
It's really more the overall experience. You kind of realize how silly online dating is through this method, assuming that math and answering random questions can match you up with someone.

Strange question and I'm totally not a stalker, but does anybody know Alex Navarro's gamertag? I know he's playing Forza and wanted to beat his times.

"Edward Appleby"
I can't recall, but watch one of the Rocket league videos and you'll see it.

Lol thanks.
Does he have the same PSN ID then?
Edit: I have now added Drew, Dan, Jeff Gerstmann, Vinny and Alex. I don't know Austin's or Chris Pratt's (Jeff B)

Piston does in fact speak for everyone here.
Also I think Dan's random appearances in this thread really makes it fun.

This Happy Home Designer Quick Look is the best one since Poly Bridge.
The randomness is exciting, but there's something to be said about the reliability of Brad's appearances after somebody overreacts to something he did or said.

and that something is "man, brad seems to only respond when people are talking about him"
don't you dare respond to this and fall into my trap, brad

so where the hell does the name MonsterDunk come from
it's dope as hell, but it only really reminds me of this cancelled N64 game:
solid gold, babby
they played it on UPF last week

It wouldn't be too far-fetched for Jeff's handle to be a reference to some obscure game.

Yeah, I think Demo Derby is my favorite regular (?) show on the site. It's the perfect venue for Dan, Drew, and Jeff to do their thing.
I just don't get why they don't do more of them. I haven't been let down by one yet

That's definitely a question I should ask Jeff at the next PAX, I only know the origin of U.S. Pipe.
I assume "Dunk" is a euphemism but it could be just something as simple as

Yeah, but I'm almost positive he mentioned in some video that the name came from that move. Maybe I'm imagining things.

I think it's more that a lot of people aren't used to talking to random people so they don't realize that the average person is either crazy, terribly racist/sexist/etc, or full of really weird quirks(or a combination)
I am consistently surprised by how fucked up the average person is.
