FR: Mr Affliction Shirt Guy

I'm wearing shirts by Affliction which have skulls and thar cool gothic lettering in honor of a friend of mine who said they were gay.

Guess what? I get attraction off them. I swear. Happens all the time. Its funny.

I go out alone to Ybar. I think that tonight I'll do some experiments using social proof. I want to get the social proof up in the venue so I can use it.

Ybar is dead. There aren't many sets at all. I wander into the porch area where I've had some success in the past.

I order a beer and talk to the waitress. She has a nice ass and some cute jeans. I say "I like your jeans. Where did you get them?" (Lame yes but she's a bartender). She tells me they are True Religion and they cost $200.

Wow! $200! I was looking at some Diesels the other day. So I play around with using it as an opener.

I turn around and lock in against the bar. The porch is nice but the rain has been on and off.
A girl smiles at me. She's in a mixed set of MFF. I ask her what was here before they built the bar. She doesn't remember. Neither do I. Fluff with the other two people - girl and a guy.

And then its time for the opener. "Would you pay $200 for a pair of jeans?"
And then I fluff the rest. It goes good. I then do David Bowie and go into the trust test and strawberry fields.

I get IHAB'ed. Which is short for "I have a boyfriend"..which doesn't bother me but whenever I get it, it means that I have shown too much interest.

So its a really good test if you're showing too much interest.

I turn to the adjacent set and ask the girl next to me if she would pay $200 for a pair of jeans. She says yes. Wow. Girls like to look good. And we know why.

This is entertaining because the girl and the guy had been arguing and now she's in a playful state talking to me.
Which only show again how emotion-driven girls are.

The guy is cool and I make friends with him and then I run a magic trick on the girl #2 and she looks foolish for a second.
Its funny and she brings over her super hot (9ish) friend who can't do the magic trick because she's toasted and horny.

Its a good night for me at this point. I am told that the girl #3 has a BF. Which means again that I showed interest. Damn. I can't see how I'm showing all that much interest other than being entertaining.

Ok enough entertaining...

I turn back to girl #1 after going to the bar and make friends with a cool black dude who I try the $200 jeans opener on. And it works.

All is good.

I sit down with her and start talking about vacations and things she likes to do.
The guy is mostly working her friend which I haven't talked to that much but seems ok with the whole thing.
Then he brings in his friend who is cool but is trying to steal my girl.

Ok so I just work my girl some more and tell her some jokes and she's back listening to me. I get some kino.
He starts to fade and then he's like "you all are talking about some heavy stuff..." This sounds like an AMOG but if it was it was poor.

I get her attention back again and roll.

At some point the guy friend leaves and the one dude is there alone by himself and he's not exactly working with me. I am still holding out that he's got some brains...he seems to have some game. His girl is into him and we could do a double date since they are roommates. Naaaa. He's lame.

He keeps leaving and coming back. His value is dropping. And he looks upset that I'm not leaving. I feel like saying "I like my girl and you got yours. This is not rocket science!"

I actually edify the guy by saying he was pretty cool to the girls. Meanwhile he's telling his girl that I am lame.

The night ends with the girls leaving and the guy walking them to their car and getting a kiss at the car and then watching them drive off.

Onto Xbar... where I run into Captain Jack. He's by himself on this night and he can't get anything to work. And its kinda lame tonight. Not too many hotties and angles suck.

We basically talked shop for the last hour or so.

CJ one of the hardest working mofos out there. And so is Sinn. Its respectable. And what's more is that I don't see anyone else from the lair out as much as I do them.

Thanks to CJ for the insight.

Q: Have any of you guys noticed that you do better on slower nights than on nights like Friday or Saturday?


$200 Jeans Opener
------------------
"Would you pay $200 for a pair of jeans?"

- Yes - "Typical Dallas Girl." (body rock away)
- No - "What if it made your ass look *really good*?"

quick DHV Story "My ex girlfriend paid $200 for a pair of jeans but she tends bar and works for tips so she has to look good."

cut---stack into next routine----

I'll do good girl face/bad girl mannerism next. Or Bad Ass Kid.

Neg more. Or just communicate disintrest with your BL.

WF

"I just met you and you're already boring me with your boyfriend?"

"It's so cool that some guys can look past physical apperence and love someone for who they are on the inside. You must be a really interesting girl. What's interesting about you?"

Tribulus - nice post. I agree with a lot of what you said.

Going out alone is a revalation and most guys are afraid to do it. You can never get comfortable enough in field basing your going out schedule around other people. I have had more SNL success on my own no doubt not to mention anything of the fact I have met many cool contacts this way. But more than that it teaches you so much about your weaknesses. And how to overcome them.

I also love that my Dallas Girl line lives on in mutated form with the extended $200 jeans opener. It hits the spot just right for most girls in this city.

Slower nights can work better for a number of reasons. It's less pressure on the girl in a lot of ways because everyone knows how easy it is to make a false time constraint for a week night therefore IOIs tend to be more genuine. Less distractions. In a funny sort of way it's more personal. I honestly think their shield is down more because they know the typical asshole Dallas guy thinks he can only get laid on Friday or Saturday so they don't have to deal with that as much.

Westfall - Good point. Neg more.

Welsh Dragon - Yeah. I like slow nights at certain places. But there are always variables such as location, time, day of week, ratio, or just too many people.

Sherlocks Addison on a Friday is very busy. Too many bodies piling into one (or two) room and too many dudes. I see girls and guys walking around shoving eachother looking for the cool place to be. Kinda sad in a way.

Yet the girls are hot and the music is good and so is the beer. So I keep going.

I have had success at certain slow places in the middle of the week or outside of the MM-prescribed 10pm to 2am time frame.

Also I really like "Typical Dallas Girls". Its one of the best things I read on this message board.
Very good frame and very funny too. You use it as an opener if I remember correctly, right?

Do you shake your head as you say it?

Tribulus - I first thought to use it because girls were saying it to me. This is where most of my material comes from. Then I started to throw it into the convo and finally tried it as an opener one night out with Vector. It went down a storm.

Originally the opener was designed to create a "them vs us" feel. Later I expanded it into a neg that is powerful against the immediate shit test. Props on the new jeans version.

The most success I have had is on "off" nights, or at places that are not packed on Fri/Sat night. One problem I encounter often is the music is too loud on Fri/Sat nights and you can't even communicate with anyone. The off nights, and quieter places allow you to run your sequences more fluidly. Also Good point about girls not having as much of a shield up during the week because the real losers only come out on Fri/Sat night and women don’t have to deflect as much unwanted attention as they do on the weekend. Good FR. -ULTRA

most of the girls I like really aren't typical Dallas girls and it's a big thing I qualify them on. I really don't care about mrs. royal-hotness and her blond hair and fake personality. Now balance that thought with a huge desire to have the ability to fuck any one of those TDG's and you get one of the complicated parts of my mind as it relates to pickup.


But no girl wants to be typical, unless she is the coolest typical, but in that case that would be what makes her different. Girls are at war, let them win by catching you.

Good to see that the Trib is still alive!
