Tinder: The New Dating App for College Students I Find Incredibly Creepy.

Step foot on any college campus and the name “Tinder” is bound to creep up–emphasis on “creep,” because the iOS app does nothing but make me feel uncomfortable.

To put it simply, Tinder focuses on one question: Hot or not? The dating app anonymously matches users with people within a 50 mile radius of them, and gives them the option of pressing a red X (Not interested! Sorry, I’m not sorry.) or a green heart (Smokeshow! Like me?!). If both people express interest, Tinder notifies them and they’re allowed to start building a budding mobile romance.

Now, users login through Facebook, so Tinder can generate an account consisting of a profile picture, age and location, as well as allow people to see if they share any mutual friends or interests with other users.

Sounds way less creepy than, say, Match com or OKCupid, right?

Well, I just downloaded the app and have been yaying or naying people for a solid 30 minutes–all in the name of journalistic research, of course. What I realized, however, is that my own profile is flawed.

It says I’m 12. Yes, 12 years old.

Somehow, my birthday on Facebook–which I correctly entered in (8/9/89, for anyone wondering. Feel free to buy presents.)–didn’t sync with the app, meaning I’m now a 12-year-old 23 year old. How alarming is that? How can I trust anyone else’s age when my own has timewarped me back to the eighth grade?

Whitney Houston died of prescription

drugs mixed with alcohol, sources say.

As fans mourn the loss of Whitney Houston, investigators and family continue to seek answers to the cause of her death. The 48-year-old singer was found dead Saturday in the bathtub of her room at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.

Coroner’s officials told the Associated Press they will not release any information on the autopsy performed Sunday, but did say there were no obvious signs of trauma. They’ve promised to not rule out any causes of death until toxicology results are in, which may take weeks.

Family sources told TMZ that the “I Have Nothing” singer did not die from drowning. Rather, they suspect Houston died from a combination of Xanax and other prescription drugs mixed with alcohol.

The family was reportedly told there was not enough water in her lungs to indicate she drowned. She may have already been dead before her head was submerged in the tub’s water, TMZ reports.

Beverly Hills Police Lt. Mark Rosen told the Associated Press that his agency may release more details Monday about Houston’s death, but it will depend on whether detectives feel comfortable releasing any information.

Houston’s mother has reportedly arranged to have the body flown to Atlanta, and officials will likely grant permission as no foul play was suspected in the singer’s death.

Whitney Houston, who won six Grammys, two Emmys and sold more than 170 million albums and singles over the course of her career, was honored by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences Sunday at Sunday night’s Grammy awards. LL Cool J started the show with a prayer for “our fallen sister” and Jennifer Hudson sang “I Will Always Love You” as a tribute.
