You’ve gotta fill out that dating profile somehow and with something. You already have the must-haves, like pictures of you with coffee/wine, pictures of you hiking/nature walking, and you enjoying brunch with a smile or something you perceive others to like. You even include that one “these are all my friends!” picture with Lyle, the guy that died last year but that’s okay because you weren’t very close with him to begin with.
Now it’s time for you.
It’s time to show off who you are. Who you really are deep inside. You are a pop culture nerd. Stop denying it. You not only watch all of the movies, you have takes on all of them. You not only know a lot about TV. Television raised you better than either parent ever could. Every time is screen time in your world.
What better way to show off to your future date than to spout off some trivia? Let us help you with these random TV and film facts to help fill out your profile.
