VH1's "The Pick up Artist"

[cpitt398]

i dont think this is mentioned in the thread but it turns out Kosmo is an actor and not a computer prograMMer like he claims.

Also they dont give away many "secrets" on their show b/c he wants people to sign up or his courses

I don't get this channel in Canada and neither do any of my friends. If this becomes a fad just like described in L.A in TheGame, it will happen in U.S and be on a much more underground level here in Canada.

Mystery is from Toronto and there are a TON of community guys from Canada involved. I'd guess Toronto gets sarged similarly to LA or NY.

Also, I think it runs counter to the shows theme that the two finalist are the two that by far had the most going for them aesthetically.

Eh, not really. It's also not that surprising that the better looking guys have an easier time changing their behavior into one of a person valued highly by society in general.

Btw, I dno where I posted it but I did call in the first episode that Brady would win. Obv I have no idea if he actually does but one of the reasons I chose him was that he had the best body language from the start...prolly due to being pretty attractive. Of course, after like one of the early episodes where he could barely string together sentences that made any sense, I was a bit worried about my pick, lol.

One thing that no one has seemed to mention is that Mystery, while being very good, is almost certainly not "the best pickup artist in the world." He is just a kid that used to play DnD, got frustrated at being a virgin and introverted, and decided to "fake it until he made it."

I'm not trying to knock on him to make myself feel better like other guys, and I respect his work. But you are definitely buying into his frame when you call him "the best in the world." He gets alot of attention and a fair amount of money doing seminars because of this tag-line he has invented for himself and that others seem to back. This tag-line feeds his image and his ego.

The truth is there are many cool guys in the world and they have skills near Mystery's level. Whether there are people that surpass him, I don't know and don't really care.

exactly. guys have been doing this since forever, the nerds who want to make a life change just built him into a god because he knew how to market it. Do you really think mystery is a better at nailing chicks than Sinatra or Tommy Lee in their primes? not a [censored] chance. And its also sickeningly laughable that the guys who are into it, think there is no other way to pick up chicks if you dont do what mystery says.

[/ QUOTE ]

I think if you Mystery, Frank Sinatra, and Tommy Lee all were suddenly transported into random bodies and lose their look and fame appeal that I'd bet on Mystery being able to meet more women.

The question asked is whether, transported into "random bodies", who would get the most chicks?

The reason Sinatra could get chicks is because he was Frank Sinatra. Mystery gets chicks based on his charm, not because of his fame.

This show really went to [censored] for me now that I know the truth.

Brady's a model and Kosmo's an actor.

How much more of this show was fake? LAME!

Wasn't Brady pretty tall? He's only list at 5'11" in that page.

[Dudd]

He also wasn't any where near that jacked.

I don't know if the site is real or not, but that's definitely him. Brady lives in LA, but he's from Fort Wayne, IN just as that site says.
