I ended things with my date after he accidentally texted me this

At 58:10 · chapter starts 54:05

A 22-year-old woman posts on Am I Overreacting after what she described as an amazing first date ends with her date accidentally sending her a text meant for a friend. The text rates her appearance using crude slang, gives her an '11 out of 10,' and describes an involuntary physical reaction to their kiss. The panel has an immediate, layered reaction — part amused, part genuinely critical. The real villain of the segment becomes the follow-up: a multi-paragraph ChatGPT-generated apology so formal and repetitive that Shayne likens it to a Jane Austen novel, noting that it adds zero new personal information and simply loops through formal apology language. The panel agrees: the AI apology insulted her intelligence even more than the original text, because it revealed he wasn't even willing to do the emotional labor of a real apology.
