Being A Conan Fan Is A Red Flag In The Dating World | Conan O’Brien Needs a Fan
We became aware of you because you tagged us in a TikTok. Yeah. video that you made. Mhm. And that's how we became aware of you and, and tell us why you mentioned us in the, and what was the video all about? Okay. So I'm, I'm a TikToker and so I, my big thing, the things that have gone like, semi-viral are, I get ready for dates. so I will like pick out an outfit and put on makeup. and while I'm doing that, I will talk about. how much I don't want to go on the dates,
which is every time I go on a date. And the reason, And you mentioned specific things about the person you're. about to see Yes (laughs). And sort of, and maybe let's just use the term, you shit-talk them a little bit just before the date. I do, and sometimes I shit-talk to them after the date. (laughs). And, but like, depending on their actions. Mhm. But the reason I tagged Team Coco was because in the. tiktok, the guy I was talking to, who I already didn't like, he said, he didn't like you, he didn't like Conan.
How did I even come up? I don't know. Yeah, like, that's so weird that the guy just goes like, "well, I really looked forward to meeting you. and I'm happy that we're going to an Italian restaurant. because I love pasta. I hate fuckin' Conan O'Brien. That fuckin' prick.". Well, it's like. And how would that even come in? How does this show up? This has happened before, it's like you're becoming a standard on dating apps. Am I a standard? You're a litmus test for humor! (Conan and Mariana laughing). Well, that's true. Well, I think he sounds awful, this guy. He is awful. And then like some commenters,
some dissenters in the comments are like, "actually, it's a red flag for me. If he does like Conan" and I-. (laughs). Well, who do they like? What's their deal? I don't know, like. They're dumb Leno fans. Frickin' Jimmy Fallon. Yeah. Well, you know, it's funny. It's funny to me, like, I love, I love that (laughs). I love that a red flag in the dating world is if you enjoy. the humor of Conan O'Brien.
(laughs). I know, it's not if you won't get a vaccine or not, it's if you like Conan O'Brien. Yeah, yeah, that fills me with delight. And I also have to say, I think my wife is in that category. You should've checked. I know. My wife is like, she'd be like, "yeah, that would be a red flag for me.". If she ever leaves me and is like, you know, out in the world, dating. Politically, you don't like yourself either, so you guys would just hook up. Exactly. Yeah. I'm not a fan of mine, so uh... (laughs).
Wait Mariana, I have a question. Have you ever gone on a date who has watched. the video about you talking about them. before you got together? Like, "hey, I saw what you said about me.". Not before. I have made, I do date updates. where I say in detail what happened. During the date?! What?! Wait. After the date. Oh, after the date. After the date is finished, I will like give my followers an update. Okay... And a man has seen that. And he, that was,
Did he like, call you out? That was not good. I was mortified. Can I ask you, you know, back in the day. Mhm. there used to be this thing where in, in like Playboy magazine, "what are your turn-ons and turn-offs, what would your. turnoffs be? What are the things you don't like. that are red flags to you aside from, of course, the very normal, if the date despises Conan O'Brien. that's, well that's a deal killer right there. But what are the things that you really don't like if,
that show up maybe on their profile. or that you witnessed them do? On profiles there are, I think five big things. Like if you put this in your profile, it means you have no personality. And that's, if, if you list The Office, if you list Game of Thrones, if you list any opinion about pineapple on pizza, if you put hiking, and if you put coffee. Those are the big things, like. if you include one of those key words, you're, you're not an interesting person. Wow. This is devastating for so many people listening.
Everyone's editing their bio right now. Exactly. And, and you know what? You're so specific and probably so right. What about photographs? Are there certain photographs where you think, okay, I can't stand this person. Gym selfies and pictures where a man is holding a fish. So what's that all about? Oh, Jesus, wait a minute. I just realized my profile photo is me in a gym. without a shirt holding a trout. Yeah. You were actually curling it like a weight. Yeah, I'm curling it. And it's, fortunately. it's a very light trout. (laughs).
So gym selfies and anyone who's holding a fish, meaning they're in a boat and they're holding up the fish, like, "look what I just caught.". Yeah, "look, I caught a fish.". But you would like the guy if he was in a bank. getting a loan and he was holding up a fish, you'd like that. If he's somewhere else making sort of an ironic commentary. on the fish holding epidemic. Very meta. I like it. Yeah.
