TRANSLATION:

FVO:
If I had my way, the world would be different.
There'd be policemen picking up hitchers, 
Firemen watering flowers,
And couples walking in single file on narrow pavements.
Yeah, I know I'm asking a lot.
Love is thirsty work.

SFX bottle opening.

...but it ain't when you got an Afri Cola.

AFRI COLA DATING – CONCEPT

There are dating apps with I.Q. filters (e.g. LoveSmart), and dating apps with psychometric filters (e.g. eHarmony). But none that combine both.

The app could be built and run by dating conglomerate Match Group.
