      I’ve seen many screenshots of people genuinely doing that. It’s disturbing.

      “My BF and I are arguing, help me win.”

      “Tell me how to respond to this girl I’m interested in.”

        “Tell me how to respond to this girl I’m interested in.”

        This might actually be a win. It will accidentally train them to be polite and courteous.

          I’m guessing this is mainly a joke, but it’s really not training them to do anything except offload the “labor” of relationships to a third party and that women are video games where selecting the right dialogue options will get you your preferred ending.

            Not everyone has good role models. Would you rather people get advice from Andrew Tates or Grok? Because you might want it to be someone other than those options but right now that is what a lot of people are picking between and we have no way of reaching and stopping them from picking poorly. As awful as Grok is, it manages to be somehow better than the other options.
