If you've got two X chromosomes and have spent any time on Tinder or OkCupid, you're accustomed to messages like "hey beautiful" or "any plans this weekend?" They're boring, unoriginal, and likely copied and pasted.

A shocking 20 percent of all messages on the site are copied. This "spray-and-pray" approach isn't as effective as taking the time to type out a personalized note, but dating is a numbers game, and it works well enough for people to keep it up.
