It’s no secret there’s a good population of assholes on OKCupid, but here in New York, the online dating world boasts some particularly uncreative types: the guy who was “born and raised” listening to Dylan and the girl who is “obsessed with” Jay Z.

Yes, according to OKCupid’s latest data batch, New Yorkers really like watching snarky mainstream TV, especially when it takes place smack dab in the Big Apple. Here are the top six words/phrases found in every person’s profile, organized by sex:

Men

30 Rock

Arrested Development

Always Sunny in Philadelphia

Bob Dylan

born and raised

my iPhone

Women

30 Rock

True Blood

Jay Z

obsessed with

ice cream

wine

Pretty depressing! Guess that means true love in the city is knowing someone else who finds Liz Lemon’s awkwardness just as charming as you do. Either that, or it’s someone who will share a sad little bowl of Häagen-Dazs with you as “Hard Knock Life” bumps in the background. [Village Voice, Image: Magdalena Bujak/Shutterstock]
