Mastering the domain of online dating proves to be more difficult than it seems on the surface. For every Bumble match that expires after 24 hours, there’s also a Tinder ‘match’ who decided, “Oops, didn’t mean to match them – have to delete.” But once you start looking at Tinder as a business, that’s when things begin to pay dividends.
Shell, or @shellalexandra on Twitter, came across a guy who did just that. She came across a 33-year-old on Tinder named Brady whose sky is clearly the limit. A graduate of both Seattle University and University of Washington, he now works at Boeing Commercial airlines. With an MBA to his name, Brady probably already has the pick of the litter when it comes to the female demographic in the Pacific Northwest, but his Tinder profile only solidifies that notion.
Apart from repping that he’s debt-free and sang at a Seahawks game, Brady uses PowerPoint slides to demonstrate “Why you should Swipe Right,” in what he calls “A Slideshow for Ants.” Shell, who he matched, tweeted out screenshots of his incredible profile that shows humor, wit, and the business prowess needed to succeed in the cutthroat world of dating.
Guitarist for 10+ years? You know he breaks that out late night and plays “Wonderwall” at parties. Kung fu and regular exercise? Hell yeah, Brady. Pound that chest. Handyman who loves cupcakes? A manly and a soft side. If a list isn’t your style, he also included his hobbies and interests in a pie chart for the visual learners out there.
He closed with a bar chart explaining his fun levels throughout a night on the town where he peaks at 11 p.m. and 2 a.m., something most 33-year-olds wouldn’t dream of. But when business is life, you’re never allowed to turn off the jets. Always being on is a skill to be mastered, and Brady has clearly mastered that skill.
She put it to a vote, and as of this morning, things were looking good for this guy.
Honestly, her only reason for not taking this date would be because she isn’t ready for marriage yet. Everyone knows Brady’s never encountered a deal that he hasn’t closed on. .

I saw a girl on bumble do the same thing, which was refreshing to see something other than “fluent in sarcasm”, “wine and pizza are bae”, “only swiping for your dog”.
Same. Always good to change it up. Might follow suit.
i had to look to see what mine said HAHA “i love iced coffee, roger federer, the color pink, baked cheetos, and hockey”
Being in Chicago, I see “future hockey mom”, “hockey fan,” “take me to a blackhawks game,” I named my dogs toews and kane,” all the time as well.
Not sure why girls put their height in their bios though. It makes sense for guys to do it, but men could care less how tall or short a girl is.
Not everyone… I’m 6’7″… I’m not trying to check off 5-footers
i live in cleveland so no one here likes hockey. i did just match with someone who has season tickets to the penguins, so i’m like hmmm…i will go out with you just to go to a game haha
That’s kinda shitty for the other person.
The Monsters are Calder Cup champions and the games are well attended/awesome, I think you’re talking to the wrong Clevelanders.
Shell looks hot. I’m happy for him.
He measures his Fun Level in megakanye’s and that’s the greatest thing I’ve ever seen.
Not surprising that will has a man crush on another beta.
Ha!
You really gotta go through a pretty bad drought before you realize you need to make a presentation to meet women.
Brady definitely drives a Miata
I just saw a guy do this on Bumble. Screenshotted and sent to the group chat but it was a left swipe for me.
Sup?
Genuinely curious – was it a swipe left BECAUSE he did that or would he have been anyway?
Also, ‘sup?
It would have been a no either way. But I got a kick out of the presentation.
If I can’t get a right swipe, at least I might be able to make a girl (and her group text) chuckle which is nice.
A slideshow is a little extra tho
I’d swipe right
Guy’s got it all figured out. Probably a psycho, but hey, why not?
I have also seen this guy on Tinder. The general consensus from my group text was a probable stage 5- do not do this.
