While Tinder can feel like a whole lot of meaningless swiping and embarrassing pickup lines, every once in a while someone stands out from the sea of matches and takes a risk.

The latest Tinder Hero to save us all from reading another monotonous "Hey" is Reddit user BostelJ. Instead of asking a match "What's up?" or making boring pleasantries, the user launched right into an interactive story.

And though it ended in a virtual slap, it's very fun to read.

To shake the digital conversation up a bit, BostelJ first asked the lucky match to pick one of three doors. The chosen door led to a mysterious/semi-creepy lighthouse.

Fun, right? And the interactive story was all made up in real time, according to BostelJ. (Very impressive.)

"I was doing three other things at the same time lol. Had the idea of doing something more creative than the generic pick up line and was getting bored of Tinder in general," BostelJ said in a Reddit comment. "I just made sure I could come up with something for each letter and went along with the flow."

Tinder users, it appears it's time to step up your games.
