I've been doing that for a lot of the STDH.

This old one works especially well:

Not Always Working posted:

(My parents own a small bookstore. Being all fair-skinned redheads, it was only logical on Halloween that my three older brothers and I dress as the Weasleys from Harry Potter. Two other coworkers get into the spirit and dress as Harry and Draco. The newest coworker is a girl who wasn’t really working out. She’s dressed in an overly-revealing princess costume, so we’ve asked her to change, which she complains about.)

Me: *to customer* “Thank you! Happy Halloween and come again!”

Regular Customer #1: “Thank you, Ginny! I love this place. You guys are always so cute!”

Me: “Thank you!”

Regular Customer #2: “So, Fred and George helped me find this book, but I need to order another one. Should I see Harry Potter or Draco Malfoy about that?”

New Coworker: *to regular customer #2* “What the h***?! That isn’t anyone’s name that works here. Are all your customers retarded or something?!”

Me: *to regular customer #2* “Draco will be more than happy to help you.” *to new coworker* “It’s just some Halloween fun…no need to be rude to our customers.” *to regular customer #2* “I’m sorry about that.”

New Coworker: “That’s dumb. This is the worst job I’ve ever had!”

Me: “This is the only job you’ve ever had.”

Regular Customer #2: *to new coworker* “You were that girl who was dressed totally inappropriately, right?”

New Coworker: “You can’t talk to me like that!”

Brother #1: “Sure she can. Ma’am, I’ll be happy to escort you over to Mister Malfoy.”

New Coworker: “You people are a joke! You just can’t stand that I’m working here!”

Me: “What?!”

New Coworker: “It’s because I’m so pretty, isn’t it?! It’s because I’m blond and pretty!”

(Note: Regular Customer #3 is a young college-aged guy who comes in a couple times a week.)

Regular Customer #3: *to new coworker* “Hey, could you maybe get out of the way so I can actually buy these books and talk to the lovely little redhead there? You’re just kind of taking up space.”

New Coworker: “I am not!”

Regular Customer #3: “Uh huh…” *to me* “So, Ginny, wanna go out with me tonight? There’s this party and I was hoping maybe you’d go with me.”

New Coworker: “What?! You’re seriously asking HER?! But I’m BLOND and PRETTY!”

Regular Customer #3: “…And rude. Let’s not forget rude. Now please, I’m trying to have a conversation here.”

New Coworker: “Oh my God, I quit! This place is awful! NO ONE APPRECIATES ME!”

(She runs out of the store, throwing her name tag at me in the process.)

Brother #2: “Harry Potter’s scar no longer burns…the evil one, she has been defeated.”

Regular Customer #3: “Well, at least she’s gone. I was serious about that party, though.”

(We’ve been dating ever since!)

Well, a lot of people do consider some forms of dancing to be a very sexually charged thing (and not just the really obvious ones). But for these guys, I'm sure it's probably some variation of the whole "peacocking" thing. "I'll show her how good I am at dancing, which will unconsciously make her realize I'm great in bed and also demonstrate my genetic fitness to her. She won't be able to resist the urge to steal my sperm! :biotruths: "

That's just a guess on my part, but it wouldn't surprise me if they would be all over a human version of some kind of dance/ritual thing like animals do during mating season.

This immediately made me think of Can't Buy Me Love. (Causing me to turn beet red, my jaw to drop, etc. I am now married to the VHS.)

Saw this on another forum I go to.

quote:


saw a girl and a guy walking through the club and "knew" that I could take the girl off him. The girl was tiny, cute german chick and the guy was an equally tiny English kid. The guy must have been 18, and was about 3 to 4 inches shorter than me.

I opened super hard and physical, right up in her face, to "exclude" the guy from her reality. And she immediately forgot he existed. I was still completely aware of him in my peripherals. I proceeded to game her and escalate hard, while the kid stood beside us, gawking. I asked her "who are you here with?", and dude was like "She's here with... (looks at girl)... you're here with... me? right? you're here with me...".Tonality was the ultimate DLV, whiney and sad.

He grabbed my arm and tried to break my iron grip on the girl, so I turned and stared in him in the eye "Patience, child". Then he started to cry. It went on like this for a while, with him standing there sulking, her puppy-dog eyeing me, and me eventually number closing her in front of him. Oh dear.

I'm having mixed thoughts about my actions. I don't usually AMOG dudes. I suppose I'm scared, having never being in a fight and very little muscle. I kinda took advantage of this guy because he was so tiny and insignificant. I don't know how to feel about it. I made a kid cry. The girl was equally unfair to him by completely ignoring him and letting him stand there and cry - she didn't care at all. On the other hand, this guy needs to learn lessons in life, and I gave this guy the gift of realising that being a chode won't work. Hopefully he went home and decided to take some action to help him to handle this in the future.

I suppose what I am seeking is the mindset guys who AMOG have to:

a) Be completely comfortable with making other guys sad / hurt

b) Have the guts to AMOG dudes who are clearly bigger, stronger and could beat me to a pulp.

Any ideas?

Does 'number closing' mean what I think it means, i.e. getting the girl's phone number? Is that a thing somewhere besides Happy Days? I mean what kind of 'closing' is that? I distinctly remember the purpose of chatting up women at a bar being to have sex with them, not to not have sex with them and then call them at a later date.

What I mean is: if you're a 'pick-up artist' and your 'closing' is getting a phone number, you are basically in the exact same position as before you 'opened', only with a number.

If you bang ASAP you lose the power, you have to hold out so she gets anxious about why you didn't sleep with her at that opportunity and that makes you the dominant one.

You see in the PUA world sex isn't about getting your D wet, it's like a game of mental chess.

But you see if a female gives you her number she wants to have sex with you because if you'll take a look at this chart

I like how in that, he's actually confronted with the fact that woah, hey, I made someone feel lovely and was an rear end in a top hat, as if he actually realizes that what he's doing is terrible, then he asks how he can get into the mindset to be an rear end in a top hat like that more often. He feels remorse but he wants to know how to get rid of that feeling because it's stopping him from having sex with getting a phone number from girls.

e: oh and of course it's only the guy he feels bad about because women only have two emotions: whore and bitch am i right :smuggo:

e2: v That one, on the one hand, was super dumb, but on the other hand, thisisfatprivelege blogs about that sort of stuff ('you shouldn't want to lose weight because that oppresses fat people') all the time.

No that's advanced interaction since it requires you to pick up your jaw from the floor and avoid slipping in the vast pool of your tears while dodging clapping people.

Someone has the gall to suggest that he isn't "an alpha."

quote:

It seems to me that a "prototypical Wolf Alpha" would only look like Charles Munger if he was interested in finance, so that's where he applies his talents. I'm interested in sex and writing, so I watch porn all day and write about sex and am paid handsomely for it.

The fact is, I could give a rat's rear end about what you think about me or the entire idea of "Wolf Alpha". If your opinion is so valuable, then go write your own drat book about it. As it is, I've written 18 books in the last 20 years, not to mention innumerable articles and blog postings (and yes, I got paid for it). I pump out about a million words a year. 18 books and a million words a year . . . for a "smart Beta grad student"? I don't think so. I blog because I love writing and I have something to say - something that people are willing to pay to read.

So what the gently caress have you done that entitles you to my respect?

I don't want this is be true.

Good god that site.

Look at his masculexicon if you want to see him describing relationships in terms of literal competitions.

Look at his 'artist of the month' pages if you want to find out, surprise, the dude fetishizes the 40's/50's as 'prefeminism' and likes pin-up girls a lot.

Honestly he just really reminds me of the father in The Woman, which is a horror movie I watched but didn't enjoy much. (In it the father is ridiculously abusive and feeds a teacher who tells him his daughter's pregnant (because he raped his daughter) to an eyeless feral woman he keeps as a dog.)

Waiiit, that red pill guy actually (pretends to have/) has a wife ? A wife who somehow agreed to have kids with him ?!

Seriously those people have some kind of social problem, they seem to have to turn everything into a competition

Nu-uh, I pick up more women than you ! Nu-uh, my kids are all more brilliant than yours ! Nu-uh I'm more clever and interesting than you (because of my steampunk erotica) !

Regarding those books :

quote:

The Sky Panthers Argosy is a work of serialized fiction. Your buck has bought you roughly 20,000 words of original fiction. There will be another installment that will also cost you a buck, and which will advance the story and arouse you sexually and challenge your sense of history.

The first book was published over 2 years ago. 2 years for 20k words seems pretty far of the manly prowess our subject (I was about to say friend, but even in an ironic way I just couldn't) claims to be able to achieve.

About the book, taken from the amazon preview

A more cultured and civilized age huh ?

Well that's culture and civilization for you I guess... Also note how he said he included all this in the book even though it's only 69 pages long ?

Fake edit : There is actually a second book in the series also from 2011. I you click on it you can read a sum up of that incredibly interesting story so far. Which also means that the book page on his blog has not been updated since 2011.

Sadly it appears that neither book is popular enough to have gotten a single review :smith: (And there is no way he gets any of my money)

E: After this wall of non content, have some Reddit :

quote:

I grew up in a 'family' where my father had nine 'wives'. He was only legally married to one of them but the rest were joined in a religious/ spiritual type ceremony. Because of this I have close to 40 siblings, some full - many half. Family is in quotes because in reality I would call it a cult.
In short it was loving horrible. All the women and children were abused and all the people I'm still in contact with (a fair few) have lasting trauma. As far as I know every one of us who have seen a psychologist/psychiatrist have been diagnosed with some type of severe anxiety disorder and several of us (myself included) with PTSD.
Growing up...is difficult to explain. Because of the culty nature of my family growing up mainly consisted of being terrified all the time. Rules, so many rules, that were always changing so you were in constant fear of punishment. And you had 9 'mothers' to drag you to the executioner aka your father. You couldn't rely on any of them to protect you either because they were trying to avoid punishment for themselves.
I'm not exactly sure what kind of information you really wanted when you asked what it was like growing up, but if you have more specific questions I'd be happy to answer them the best I can.
I would NEVER EVER consider a polygamous relationship of any kind because all my experience with them was one of unequal power. I also have no desire to share my partner sexually. It's a lot of work to fully love someone. It requires a lot of energy and I just don't see myself capable of spreading a whole love across multiple people that way. Nor would I ever desire to.
