yeah i noticed it a lot while checking profiles that there was just nothing written up at all. never really thought about it being a fake profile.

Not Okcupid, but another dating site I went to had one profile message me. In her hobbies list it said "I really enjoy: NULL"

I've seen a few women* list a programing language in addition to other languages on online dating profiles.

* I'm sure there are some men that do it too, but I don't browse those profiles.
