Diskutera The Big Bang Theory

A company is supposed to launch a new dating app in February 2018 that matches users based on their DNA.

Yes! DNA! Who knew that a person has “attraction genes”!?

The process starts with a person submitting a cheek swab using a specially-created kit. Who knows, maybe couple_with_heart success for Raj is just an app away?


ON ANOTHER NOTE:

What say you? If such a thing really came to fruition, would you try it thumbsup_tone2 or thumbsdown_tone1 ?

I'm going thumbsdown_tone1 - Just wouldn't want any-old-body tooling around with my gene-stuff.

Well, since this is a science-y show, a **science-y **method for finding a mate might be a good storyline, and goodness knows Raj has exhausted most other avenues.

However for me, that sounds like too many test tubes and too little magic. It might yield a greater success rate (who knows?), but it kind of kills the step of becoming naturally attracted to someone.

For a girl who HATES chick flicks, I'm still a romantic at heart.

Speaking of "scienc-y", according to what I read the company has "a team of in-house scientists" who will be handling the specially-created kit submitted by the Swabers .

Couple of things:

-1. Any scientists dedicating their knowledge, skills, and ability to date-app exploration have too much time on their hands.

*> -2. Maybe I’m too sci-fi-ish, but in a few years transplants with become run-of-the-mill instead of some big to do. What better way to get ahead of the game than create a “database” of suitable subjects? Not only that, but they can also track their subjects over time—that is, until they age-out of the donor pool. I’m convinced that some of the folks (kids too) who turn up MIA, are just unfortunate victims who simply happened to have “the right stuff”. *

Well, at least they are upfront about telling folks that they WANT IT ALL. That is, in addition to the kit and the personal information stated on users’ profiles, they also collect their social media data.



If there are any "POI" fans out there - Is this..now!?

Have you seen the movie Coma? (Which happens to feature an early, if not the very first, appearance of Tom Selleck.)

No; have not seen "Coma"; but I see it’s by Michael Crichton (definitely a + in my book); also read the plot summary, and saw the official trailer. Don’t have to “hit me over the head” to make a believer out of me.

-- Reminded me of a scandal from a few years back. Anyone remembers the funeral homes and biomedical supply company employees that were caught harvesting and selling body parts? They made millions of dollars before they were busted. Yes; these people were already dead; but, still….--

Sometimes “fiction” is just “fact” that has yet to see the-light-of-day.

Just tossing something else into the mix: ** Planned Parenthood**.

I would more likely be AllUpOn the Planned Parenthood controversy were it not for the "prices" quoted in the so-called smoking-gun, undercover video.

Those funeral homes and bio-supply companies made millions; how likely is it that PP sold "their wares" for $30-$100 each--barely shipping cost?
