Re: Some Stuff About PUA (very long)
I don't like the games and tricks that are part of PUA nonsense. But, I have read The Game and it can be very applicable for real life. I am a confident good conversationalist, but at times in my life I have been a doormat. Never been a player, but never had problems with girls either. It is a weird comibination because I am a leader and assertive, but also am way too nice at times. Ultimately PUA stuff can be used to better understand all people and lead to better interactions with them. I can still be a nice guy without being soft about it. Every person has the ability to grow through the self analysis required as part of these ideas.
I feel the whole thing gets a bad name because the people you read about are nerds who can't talk to anybody getting "programmed" to pick up women. Just like anything rooted in psychology, there are simplistic negative ways it can be used, but overall it is a good thing for study.

Re: Some Stuff About PUA (very long)
80% of teens have had a job by HS graduation. 50% have worked more than 15 hours a week.
That % is higher in summertime. In the last 20 years, the number of 16-19 yr olds in school has jumped 10% as well.

Re: Some Stuff About PUA (very long)
Can we start discussing some of the unethical PUA stuff? I remember someone posted the tricks to use if a girl has a boyfriend. That was pretty brilliant and sick at the same time.

Re: Some Stuff About PUA (very long)
[ QUOTE ]
IMHO, 90% of the attractive girls in America are unbearably stupid and their lives are governed by the stuff they watch on television and read in magazines. On the other hand, 99% of men are also retarded. [/ QUOTE ] This viewpoint probably isn't given enough credit. The dimwitted shallowness of the culture we live in, and our generally enthusiastic commitment to it, encourages and accepts our being dullards. It doesn't matter who is doing the choosing -- talking sports and cars for more than a minute or two is just as dull and vapid as talking about make-up or hairstyles; talking about Lindsay and Brittney is equally dull no matter which sex is doing it. However, there is still the practical matter of getting laid. And/or having a relationship, if you're into that. PUA is being presented as the answer for both.

[/ QUOTE ] Blarg, I've spent countless hours talking with Cardo on AIM. I ended up in the middle of far too much drama, and gave him tons of advice that he ignored and ignored. This isn't some cheap potshop (and wtf @ easiet targets), it's the result of being really frustrated by Cardo acting like a [censored] to people trying to be his friends. The point I made in this thread is that upon meeting Cardo in Vegas, many people found him to be really [censored] weird. This doesn't exactly seem like the guy that everybody loves that Cardo wants to make himself out to be. When somebody acts like an [censored] to me, and then posts [censored], I'm pretty inclinded to call them on doing it.
