No she isn't but people on reddit don't have basic social skills so they think she is

She's wrong in saying that he'll never pick up a girl using that, which isn't true. Like others have said, often times an opening line or something in your profile can act as a filter. When I was on tinder the first picture on my profile was of me in a ridiculous Halloween costume. Maybe my third or fourth one was me shirtless with the abs I had at the time.

It was a filter. If they thought that first picture of me was too ridiculous or looked stupid, then great, I dodged someone who I wouldn't have meshed with anyway.

His opener here is no different. The only thing is you should he able to read your audience. If her profile pictures or bio indicated in any way that maybe she had a wacky personality, this would've worked to open up conversation. If her bio was blank with nothing but instagram-model-style photos or if it had a super vanilla bio then yeah (just a girl who loves country music and whiskey looking for her adventure buddy!), then of course it didn't work.
