[DING] [DING] [DING] Excuse me, are you Aaron? Yes. And you are? Also Aaron. Your hair, it looks different than the pictures. I swiped myself again, didn't I? Do they have good buffalo wings here? I love buffalo wings. I know. Fucking Tinder. You know they gotta to update it that so you can't swipe yourself! I like your shirt. Thank you. I have the same shirt. This is awkward. I'm going to order drinks. Whiskey sour? Yeah how did you? Don't answer that. Rememeber. I wrote no hook ups. Yeah but I
wrote it as a joke to get more dates. I mean you do like going on adventures though, right? Mmm, no. - Mmm yeah, me neither. But I'm "Very Spiritual." [LAUGHTER] [SLAP] What's your favorite tv show? - Blacklist Love James Spader. Coke or Pepsi? Regular Pepsi but Diet Coke. Greatest movie ever? DEAD POETS SOCIETY!!! [LAUGHTER] [CLAP] How can you still be single? I have high standards. Yes! Are you seriously on Tinder right now? Honestly, Aaron, [SLAM] I don't see this going anywhere. Uh, no No,
n-n-n-No. Wha-what happened? What Did I do wrong? - No n-n-No. It's not you. It's me, which I guess is you. Gah! - You just don't excite me anymore. We know everything about each other. Where's... ...the mystery? Give me a chance. I can switch it up. I'm gonna start going to the gym. No you won't. No, I won't. Is one of you Aaron? I had on my profile, Swipe left for cholera, swipe right for puppies. I can't believe I wrote that. Ya know, nobody swiped me for two months. That joke was the best. I
t really is though. It got me. Wait, why is there another me here? Because I swiped myself again. I look cute as fuck. Everybody says I look like Ed Sheeran. Pop stars have such normal names now. They're impossible to remember. Like Lukas Graham... ...or some shit. It was better when I was a kid. In the... ...Pitbull era. Yes, brother Aaron. Preach! Who would you rather have sex with. Oprah Winfrey or a dead Rihanna? That is extremely racist. I can't believe that you would ask me that, but I was
going to ask the same thing. Oprah- -but Rihanna- -only if she was dead- -for five minutes! [SLAM] Which one of you guys ordered the whiskey sour? Let me answer that. Me. [LAUGHTER] Hey, I'm Erin. I'm here for a date. Is anyone here named... ...Aaron? [LAUGHTER] [LAUGHTER] I love me! [LAUGHTER] - Next time, left for cholera. [LAUGHTER] Put your hands up Oh no, I swiped myself.
