Comment of the Day: Ajay: "A colleague asked for advice on how to open a conversation with a chap she'd met through Tinder...

...(not actually Tinder but some similar thing). For some reason she took my advice and gave the guy the Voigt-Kampff test (you know, the 'you see a tortoise on its back in the desert, what do you do' thing) from 'Blade Runner', a film that she has not in fact seen. She is now committed to going on a date with him based on a shared love of cyber-noir films of the 1980s which is, in her case, completely fake. I mention this to show that that sort of thing does happen in real life as well as in bad sitcoms.
