VIRGINIA BEACH, VA—Regaling her friends with tales of promiscuity from her single life, local woman Erica Bennet reportedly referred to the sole “hi” she sent to a man on a dating app Wednesday as a “ho phase,” according to sources. “Truly in my ho phase, y’all,” the 29-year-old wrote in a group text with her girlfriends, describing herself as “such a little slut” for finally hitting send on the two-letter message to a Tinder match following weeks of deliberation. “Whatever, I’m single! I’m totally allowed to write ‘hi’ to as many men as I want. It’s time I finally let loose a little and engage in some harmless salutations with total strangers. If following up with a gif of Michael Scott makes me a complete fucking whore, so be it!” At press time, sources confirmed Bennet had not waited for the man to reply before panicking and deleting her Tinder account.
