Missouri State Student Emails Every "Claudia" on Campus to Correct Tinder Mistake

A Missouri State student named Hayden accidentally swiped left on a beautiful female student named Claudia’s Tinder profile, and responded by sending an email to every single Claudia with a plea to let him undo his mistake.


Is this adorable? Creepy? Both? You’ll have to read and decide for yourself.


And, of course, then there’s the intended Claudia’s response.






“Hello all Claudias of Missouri State,” his email begins.


We don’t know how many Claudias that includes. It’s a great name with a great history, but kind of rare.


Even rare names can crop up a lot when you’re talking about a student body population of about 26,000 students.


“First off, my name is Hayden, and I made a rookie mistake on Tinder. I accidentally swiped left on Claudia’s profile (left is bad), and I really wanted to swipe right.”


Oh gosh.






“If Tinder provided last names, this would be much easier, but it doesn’t, so I have to describe the profile to you.”


This is taking those old “missed connection” stories and adding another layer. Color us intrigued.


“The age next to her name was 20, but in her bio it said she was actually 18 and didn’t know how to change it.”


It sounds like they have similar proficiencies in using Tinder. Kind of a promising start to their relationship?


“The pictures she provided had some with her friends and her mom in them. In her bio she said some of her friends were single and if anyone liked them better that’s fine but they couldn’t have her mom (had me deat btw).”


Yeah that’s genuinely funny.






“So, like I said, I meant to swipe right but that didn’t happen.”


That can happen to anyone if they’re just flipping through profiles and make the motion one time too many by mistake, but maybe he’s 


“My instagram is Hayden.Moll if you want to look me up.”


He has almost no photos on there. It’s hard to tell if he sanitized his profile just for the occasion or if he just needs to get better friends if he wants an Instagram profile that’s going to grab a thirsty fellow student’s attention.


“I’m just asking, if this is your profile that I described, please message me back with ‘right’ or ‘left’ just so I know if you’re interested or not.”


Like a do-it-yourself Tinder. Amazing.






But what is he hoping to get out of all of this?


“If you choose ‘right’ we could totally get some doughnuts or something but if you choose ‘left’ that’s cool too. No worries!”


That’s a polite thing to say. In part for politeness but also because, well, sometimes when men feel rejected they respond with murder. Hayden was good to include that reassurance.


 “If it’s none of you Claudias and you know even more Claudias, spread the word please. It would be much appreciated!”


Well, the young woman in question did reveal herself. Her name is Claudia Alley.






Public responses have ranged from comments admiring the story to finding humor in it to others disparaging them or the entire idea of meeting someone through an app.


“He was smitten..”


“He was desperate to meet her because he could just sense she has a great personality.”


“She just wants to know who does his eyebrows.”


“Um, stalking?”


“That twink is out of his league.”


“I feel sorry for people out there that cyber stalk someone before and rely on screens during courtship.”


“No dear, not creepy at all.”






What matters, though, is what Claudia thinks of all of this.


Apparently, she’s not only entertained by the story going viral — she’s also amused enough by his endearing email that she’s agreed to go out to get doughnuts with him.


A lot of the time, viral relationships like this fall apart. You know what else falls apart? Non-viral relationships. Not everybody clicks.


That doesn’t mean that we need to start singing a funeral dirge for this “relationship.” They’re literally just going out for doughnuts.


We would point out though that Hayden seems to be pretty tall and Claudia is either exclusively friends with Amazonians or is extremely short. Sometimes height differences are the secret ingredient that make relationships click and stick.


We hope that they’re both better at a doughnut date than they are at using Tinder.

Ohio State University: Active Shooter Reported on Campus

A frightening situation is underway in Columbus, Ohio.


According to local authorities, at least seven people have been taken to a hospital after an active shooter was reported on the campus of Ohio State University.


It is not known at this time the type of injuries nor conditions of those transported.




Ohio State University


The school’s emergency management department sent out a Tweet about an hour ago that alerted students to the ongoing situation.


It urged them to take shelter, to be safe and to fight back if necessary; and it gave them an idea of where the shooter had been spotted.


“Active Shooter on campus. Run Hide Fight. Watts Hall. 19th and College,” read the first message.


It was followed a few minutes later by: “Continue to shelter in place. Avoid area of College. More information to follow.”




osu tweets


Around 10:20 a.m., the department wrote once more: “Continue to shelter in place in north campus area. Follow directions of Police on scene.”


Watts Hall, one of the locations referenced above, is the university’s materials science and engineering building.


Ohio State senior Anthony Falzarano has already been in contact with CNN, telling the network that he was in class at the time of the shooting.


“We heard a lot of sirens. I was in class and everyone got a text message at the same time for the emergency alert,” the 22-year old said.


“Someone said they heard popping right before we got the alert, but I didn’t hear it. We are in a shelter-in-place right now in the building next door.”


A spokeswoman for the Columbus Fire Department confirms that two people are listed as stable at Grant Medical Center and two others are at Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center.


However, their status is unclear.


NBC Nightly News reports that the FBI, Columbus Police and other agencies are helping the Ohio State University Police on campus.


Courtesy of social media, here is a look at authorities gathered on the scene:

Among others, Ohio Governor John Kasich have taken to Twitter to address the situation.


“Ohio’s thoughts and prayers go out to the Ohio State community. Be safe, listen to first responders,” wrote the former Presidential candidate.


Added Ohio Senator Rob Portman said:


“My and Jane’s thoughts and prayers are with the Ohio State community. Please be safe and listen to our first responders.”


Ohio State University’s main campus in Columbus is one of the largest in the United States. It played host to a major college football game against the Michigan Wolverines on Saturday, which the Buckeyes won in double overtime.


The university has more than 65,000 students enrolled across the state.

Sophomore Wyatt Crosher has also been in touch with CNN.


He says heard gunfire (maybe “three or four gunshots”) that he thinks came from a class building across the street from his dorm.


Students have been told told to keep their distance from this area while authorities investigate.

Miley Cyrus Stuns College Students, Campaigns on Campus for Hillary Clinton

Miley Cyrus went back to school this weekend.


Not her own education, necessarily, but for the education of others.


The singer shocked students at George Mason University in Virginia on Saturday when she walked around campus and urged everyone there to vote for Hillary Clinton.



Clinton currently leads Donald Trump by about eight points in this state, but it’s important for everyone to get out there and vote.


Isn’t that right, Miley?


The singer – who actually supported Bernie Sanders in the Democratic primary – went door to door inside the dormitories of the Fairfax, Virginia school to talk about the one Presidential nominee NOT accused of 11 cases of sexual harassment.


“Hello? How are you? I’m Miley,” the artist said after knocking on freshman Jake Zartman’s door, according to The Washington Post.


“I’m here supporting Hillary. Are you going to vote?”



Dressed in a red-and-silver striped dress… a furry blue jacket… a bright pink headband … and rocking an oversized blue bow across her chest, Cyrus walked across the campus in hopes of making sure Clinton wins this swing state on November 8.


“Your room is so cute!” she told another student, based on a New York Post report.


She continued:


“Sorry to come in with all these people. They’re awesome people also excited for Hillary. Are you registered to vote? Are you voting here or are you from out of town? 


“I’m from Nashville but I actually just re-registered because I’m so excited to go on the day because I want the sticker.”







A video posted by Emma Loop (@emmagloop) on





Cyrus posted her share of photos from this trip on Instagram, as did students who couldn’t believe they were actually hanging out with Miley Cyrus.


“Campaigned for @hillaryclinton today in GMU in VA encouraging young people to volunteer and vote!!!!” the sinter captioned one of the images of herself giving a thumbs up to potential voters from a dorm window.


A reporter from the George Mason student newspaper wrote as a caption to one of her social media photos:


“Miley says she was offended by way Trump spoke about abortion at the last debate. Says she is big supporter of Planned Parenthood.”


Indeed, Trump said many things at the last debate that left viewers shaking their heads.



In another caption for a video she shared on Instagram, Loop wrote:


“Mousa Abusaif, 20, tells Miley that Trump tried to have him fired from his Washington country club.”


We presume this is because Abusaif is Muslim.



Earlier this year, Katy Perry performed her songs “Rise” and “Roar” at the Democratic National Convention, where she urged viewers to “have an open mind and to use your voice.”


Other celebrities we know are on Team Clinton include Kim Kardashian, Demi Lovato, Kerry Washington and Eva Longoria.


Those supporting Trump in this election include Scott Baio, Antonio Sabato Jr. and Kelsey Grammer.


You absolutely should NOT based your vote on the opinions of famous people.


But maybe take a look at the success achieved by those voting Clinton and the success achieved by those voting Trump and ask yourself is there’s a correlation.



Have you made up your mind yet? 


Who will YOU be voting for on November 8?



And the Winner is?

UCLA Shooting Leaves Two Dead; Campus on Lockdown

Two people were killed at the University of California Los Angeles today, with school officials announcing the campus was placed on lockdown after reports of a shooting around 10 a.m.


The incident took place at an engineering lab in Boelter Hall.




UCLA scene



The identities of the victims are unknown at this time, but law enforcement officials say they were both men and both were in their 40s.


It is also unknown whether they were students, members of the faculty or neither.


Los Angeles Police Officer Tony Im says authorities had received reports of an active shooter near the aforementioned building and were operating under the assumption that he or she was still at large.


One theory, however, is that this was a murder-suicide and that no one else in the area is in any danger.


Officials quickly placed the campus on lockdown while authorities looked into the frightening incident.


From there, large groups of armed police officers patrolled the streets of the campus, which is home to over 40,000 students.


There are also snipers in place and helicopters are flying overhead.




UCLA



“We have responded in an abundance of caution,” a police official said during a press conference at the scene. “The city of Los Angeles has been placed on a tactical alert city-wide.”


Agents from the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives are also on the scene.


Some students, of course, were in classrooms when the lockdown was announced.


One individual Tweeted the following photo along with the following message:
