This trans woman trolling Grindr guys with audio messages has officially won the internet
In the tiled torso world of Grindr, roiled by accusations of racism and body-shaming, users have to find their own ways to have fun on the dating app.
Well, not always that kind of fun.
Getting into the Holiday spirit was one user who decided to troll some Grindr guys in the best way possible.
She pretended she could only respond to audio messages, leading to some oddly specific and dizzyingly wild situations.

‘I’m not a lesbian if that’s what you’re asking.’
In the first chat, Chase explained to a guy she only responds to audio messages because they’re “more entertaining.
“Also, I’m blind and don’t have thumbs.”
The guy chuckled and then asked if Chase is using her nose to hit the record button with.
“Actually,” she suggestively said, “I’m holding it down with something else…
“It’s the scar tissue where my right thumb used to be.”
The guy hit back: “Jesus Christ, you’re funny.

“Uh, to be honest, it must kinda suck not having thumbs.
“I feel really bad,” the guy said, whose Grindr heading was “[love] twinks”.
“Do you still have your pinkie and your first finger?”
Chase responded: “I’m not a lesbian if that’s what you’re asking.”
She even did a few follow-up videos, and we’re personally petitioning for this to become a Netflix Original series, to be honest.
Christmas even came early for her followers, as she posted a seasonal edition:

Twitter dubs it ‘the best thread ever made’.
Chase’s expert-level trolling tactic went viral, tallying 61,000 retweets in just a few days.
From “brilliant” to “this has me so deceased” to “my grave is set”, countless Twitter users were practically hospitalised for laughing too much.
