How on earth would anyone think that facial hair looks good? How can you be so delusional to look into a mirror and think yep, that looks awesome. Straight away you can tell not to take any advice of any kind from that person.

His first two lines are delivered with such mechanical awkwardness. He immediately comes off as the guy you stay away from at parties. And that's before he talks about eating your eyes. His advice is the advice of someone who has seen and studied people flirting, but hasn't really caught on to the nuance.

I would watch a show by someone who finds real people who think they are experts on things they actually are terrible at. Well... I guess that's just Youtube, but like a real TVshow about it would be neat.

Now, who are the best flirts in the world? They're actually little kids.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say this is not going to be the best way to make your point. It's pretty awesome at outing you as a paedophile an ephebophile though.

This guy is amazing.

There was a short-lived show in the UK called "Help Yourself", presented by Angus Deayton. He showed clips from terrible self-help or instructional videos and made fun of them. I think there are a few episodes on YouTube still.

Thank you. I can't believe this existed 8 years back, before youtube was big. Some of the older videos are proof that there have always been loons I guess.



See its not that you don't take care of yourself, don't have any fashion sense and were born ugly. You just need a new Cologne! The sheer number of these related to being attractive or to anxiety is pretty telling. Then there are these:

MASTURBATORS. Create the effect that you've been sleeping on your arm by getting someone else to pull you off.

MARRIED women. Bored of having sex with the same man again and again? Simply sit on your husband's cock until it goes numb and Hey Presto! It feels like someone else is banging you.

HUSBANDS. Tired of sleeping with the same wife? Simply lie on top of her until she goes numb, and Hey Presto! She'll feel like someone else's wife.


Also is there anything you can't use sanitary pads for?

What the hell is it with the UK and poo poo like "Chizzy" and "Jezza" and "Macca" for nicknames. The only time I've hated Matt Smith was the time he referred to Karen Gillan and Billie Piper as "Kaz and Bills."

It's a UK magazine that mentions Shakira, so that means this must've been from about 2002 at the earliest. :aaa: I thought all these things were from old vintage mags. I wanted to believe that.

Most of the videos featured were actually VHS tapes that were actually for sale in self-help, exercise or self-teaching sections of shops and libraries. Not just on YouTube, some people paid money to see "How To Massage Your Cat".

Just how the hell are sanitary towels cheaper than anti-perspirant? Was there some kind of anti-perspirant shortage back then that drove up prices that I'm not away of because I'm a smelly goonlord?
