Site of the day: Douchebags of Grindr

Despite being around for something like two years, the inevitable Douchebags of Grindr site has been making the rounds only recently, which means the internet now has the comedic timing of Jet Set Studios.

Anyway, the site is kinda fun in a voyeuristic sort of way. It’s fun seeing people hung out to dry for posting their latent self-hate, femmephobia and racism (Really? You’re going to put “WHITES ONLY” as the thing that represents you?), although it’s a little weird to see them making fun of someone for being picky when they themselves are running a bitchy site that makes fun of others for being bitchy and having standards. I’m not saying guys should be outright arrogant; I’m just saying it’s a bit hard to justify being bitchy to call out others for being bitchy.
