is it just me or is today kind of weird?

yes

one of my coworkers suggested we go "sargin'" tonight and that while "sargin'" he would be "peacockin'"

so yes

my day didn't seem weird till i read tombot's post.

what does that even mean? are you going to go?

http://sarging.com/

yeah I talked him into just hitting the Big Hunt with me because they have an outdoor smoking zone in the back. he is going to dress in a loud fashion and attempt to pick up ladies. I am going to be the wingman, basically by default.

yeah it's weird. look at this waythefuck out of porportion email i got:

"jerginho" to Jacquie
show details 12:48 pm (1 hour ago)

hey. it was great to see you! let's meet up again!

juniperg to me
show details 1:07 pm (58 minutes ago)

maybe if you guys actually came out to the east coast once in a while it wouldn't be up to me to cram a visit into a short, holiday trip that i make ONCE A YEAR. plus, i was sick. after you make a few visits out, you can flip me shit.

i will slap a bitch next time i see her

lol don't be sarcastic to sick people

WTF. i'll slap her too.

also WTF:

"Dude, my bro and I are going sarging tonight at Club Xtreme. Hopefully I can use my acquired skills to pull an SHB11 after negging, out-alpha-ing AMOGs, establishing a jealousy plotline, doing a venue change, setting up a time bridge, bouncing to the seduction location and then overcoming last minute resistance. And maybe her hot roommate will come along for the ride."

double up indeed

just like there are huge web boards for boys to get help at video games, there are huge web boards for boys to get help talking to women in bars. boys need help with everything. our fathers didn't grow up in a totally fucked up alien environment full of complete bullshit, so we have to take advice from strangers on the computernets. God I hate this generation.

but at least I know where dude picked up his lingo now.
if he says "hb" while we're at the bar I'm going to slap his hat off.

tombot did you type that or c+p it

oh god, now i have to look up what "hb" means? maybe i don't need to know. leave the boy terms to the boys.

i may need to know what a "walk it out contest" is, though.

haha gr80 I typed that

that is straight tombot output

I've been looking at pictures, reading field reports, and so on for a number of PUA sites for about two months now, and something that has been bothering me is the variance in the personal scales from HB7-HB10.

Let me elaborate...
Say for example, I was out in a club with my friend/wingman who just opened some 3 set or w/e and I, not them, could tell he was definitely into them. Say for example he evaulated them each as a HB8, HB8, and HB10 and in my mind, the two HB8s were not even on the scale and the HB10 might not even make an HB7.

I have read numerous times that certain routines, c&f lines, openers and such only work on certain levels of HB i.e. some ridiculously blunt c&f lines and negs are most likely only to be tried on HB9-10s. Also the same with certain approaches, not necessarily canned material, that would not work when said to an HB9-10.

Now for the question.
Say a girl was, for all intents and purposes, an HB 7. Now if me and my friend were trying to pick her up, him with the mindset she was an HB9 and me thinking she wasn't even an HB7 but simply wanted to game her for some unknown reason. Our games would be different, in my mind (which this is where I could be comlpetely wrong making this thought irrelevant) one strategy would work and the other would fail. Bringing up the thought that there should be a standardized grade of HB7-10 so people don't read an article with the disclaimer saying "only attempt on HB10s!" and in their mind use the line on a girl who was really a HB7 and have them get slapped in the face or something. Or maybe does the HB7-10 simply have to do with how the girl percieves herself? I dont know, thoughts appreciated.

oh my god

really seriously I wish my job had some kind of hidden clout so I could blow up the internet and the phone lines and force people to go back to being civilized instead of whatever you call this shit we are now

weird

am0n! i was just thinking, "where is am0n?!"

okay yeah, thanks. i could totally win that contest.

yeah. the fact that there are weird meta-meta-meta strategizing strategies for simple interactions with other human beings is a pretty clear indicator of the fuckedupness of things. websites with guys arguing in bizarre-sounding jargon about seduction techniques somehow seems a far cry from an old school cosmo article about "how to make him notice you"

is HB "hot bod(Y)"?

In the interest of examining some common psychological patterns women have with regards to their looks, I give you The Hot Babe Scale: a simple, discrete 1-10 numerical scale that allows you to predict, with some accuracy, the behaviors and thought patterns of different women.

On Calibrating the Scale: Because of the somewhat subject nature of beauty, guys ought to talk to their buddies about The HB Scale, and compare notes on how they rate particular women (the website www.hotornot.com can be used for this). This can prevent the pitfall of having a “skewed scale” and making mistakes in interactions based on assigning a wildly divergent value to a given woman, and thereby treating her in a maladaptive way.

Now im going to show you how to subtly change your image from an average timid guy in to a unique master of attention. On the two photos I have on display, the guy is wearing exactly the same outfit but in the first photo he is wearing no accessories & in the second photo he is peacocking effectively. Notice how much of a remarkable difference peacocking can be to ones image.

http://www.theartofpeacocking.com/minicourse/part1/picture1.jpg

(1) In the first picture, the guy is not dressed all that bad but he is dressed more in a way to blend in rather than to stand out. His clothes are well fitted & the colours go together well but there is just no spark to the image. There are a lot of cool guys who can dress to this standard so this look will not be enough if you want to elevate yourself above the ordinary norms to get an edge.

Based on just this look, women will appreciate the fact that you have general fashion sense like the clothes fit well, the colours match Etc but there will be loads of other guys who will be able to not only compete but also better this look. The chances are you will not be noticed if you were amongst an average bland crowd. A good thing about this picture though is that the guy is dressing in such a way to compliment his slim physique.

(2) In the second picture the guy has a very eccentric personalized look going on for him. To achieve this feat he as only added a sailor's hat, eye catching black & white striped fingerless glove, A belt and finally a purple & silver interesting rosary bead.

Now this guy looks far more sexual likes he's oozing sex appeal. Also women will definitely notice him because he's wearing some very eye catching accessories that grab the spot light. So he as effectively used the peacocking concept of standing out from the average norms. Also he is wearing some interesting items like the unique sailor's hat & an eccentric fingerless glove which gives women reasons to approach him. Then add to the fact that it takes a confident person to pull this look off so he's conveying confidence right off the bat. The sailor's hat can be a great lock in prop too.

So overall this is a good example of effective peacocking because he can achieve all the concepts of peacocking by wearing some cleverly selected items that not only achieve the desired affect but they also make for a good look.

Have you noticed in the second pictured that even though he his wearing a few eye catching peacocking accessories, none of these accessories are try hard or out of place. All the peacocking that is on show fits perfectly to his whole overall image. Also notice that he is only wearing 3 colors to create this unique look.

today as well
