For what it's worth, describing oneself both honestly and attractively is kind of a pain to some people. Think of how difficult it was to write college applications (For me it was like pulling teeth). Now multiply that by the insecurity people often feel between relationships and the consideration that People You May Know may end up reading that description and thinking you pretentious or basic or full of it or not actually that much of an achiever.

Is Hubski a hobby? #foodski? #musicski (#hiphopski?)?

But also sarcasm is my second language.

It's a pain to almost everyone except the most depraved narcissists. What I and kantos were quoting is low-effort, even in the realm of dating profiles.
