The thing about using a pop culture reference as a pick-up line is it only works if they actually get the reference.

Reddit user DBREEZE223 posted a not-so-successful Tinder interaction he had recently with a girl named Nana. The hopeless romantic decided to try out a pick-up line that incorporated a play on his match's name, which is a classic Tinder move.

Though it is kind of a clever way to try to win someone's heart, the result was not exactly what he was hoping for. It's ok buddy, maybe she's more of a Marvel fan?

At least something good has come of his misfortune. There are plenty of great Batman puns being left in the comments.

Though he probably won't have the chance to try out this exact joke again, maybe he'll match with a nice gal named Robin who he can try to woo with another Batman pun.
