Most online daters say they like 30 Rock in order to get laid
In the olden days, attempting to date via classified ad was a tedious process of pretending to enjoy eating dinners in crappy lighting and trudging along a shoreline, all in order to convince someone that you were worthy of sex. But thanks to the influence of social networking, now it’s just a matter of selecting the right combination of pop culture signifiers to advertise yourself. And what works of other people's art are most men and women using to define themselves in order to snare a mate? If the New York-based users of dating site OKCupid can be used to stand in for the rest of America—and let’s face it, they probably can—the majority of them are telling everyone that they like 30 Rock, the one reference that appears most often in the profiles of either gender according to a recent internal study.
