If you had the chance to find a date during these chaotic times, what would you do? Say yes, of course! Even with the world seemingly on the brink of World War III, who wouldn’t seize the opportunity to find the one?
But as Glenn Embrey’s story shows, finding “true” love can be hilariously tricky. When someone told Glenn he’d look more attractive to women if he posted photos with filters, he decided to take their advice. But here’s the twist—what kind of filters did he use? The ones for photos or the real, tangible kind?
Glenn’s response was pure gold. He posted pictures holding actual filters. Yep, real ones. And the internet couldn’t get enough! His photos racked up 37k reactions, over 10k comments, and were shared more than 113k times. Hats off, Glenn—you nailed it!
Now, about those filters he’s holding… Are they for coffee? An A/C unit? Maybe even fuel? No one knows for sure. But one thing is clear: Glenn’s sense of humor struck a chord.
This also raises a funny point about photo filters. Some people think they’re a bit deceptive. According to Brande Victorian, 29% of men and 32% of women admit to editing their dating profile pics—with Photoshop, Facetune, or filters. In a world obsessed with perfect images, it takes guts to post an unedited photo.
Glenn, however, took things to another level. He skipped the digital touch-ups and brought the laughs. For that, he definitely deserves an award!
