The Story
Phoebe has a Tinder date in an hour. Keith has a Tinder date in an hour. Can you guess where we're going with this one?
No caption. This is a serious problem today.
In a cafe, bubbly Ashlee explains to the shy MIT grad student Phoebe the Text Delay Theory and lessons from past relationships.
Ew. SO GROSS.
At a bar, apparent writer Clay and frat bro Keith discuss the discovery of America and its relation to dating; their favorite porn genres; and the Manic Pixie Dream Girl.
Call me Ishmael. I will tell you about pussy.
Along the way, others drop in on them: a surly bartender, a rational Neo-Nazi, a couple of excited Beats from out on the road, a hypocritical preacher, an intellectual feminist, a scientifically-illiterate MIT humanities professor, and a barfly philosopher.
Interspersed are interviews with couples who met through the decades of the twentieth century, from exchanging letter during the Korean War to meeting on eHarmony.
All leading up to the Tinder date... This is: "The fastest, most romantic love yet."
