The "Amog"

[Twitchy]

First off, what most guys in the community call AMOGing to me is just an insecure guy intimidating a more insecure guy. A true leader wouldn't have to actively attempt to "take" a girl from another guy. He would be surrounded by females and would be choosing which one he wants vs. chasing one that is with another guy.

That being said, AMOGing some other chump in a bar seems to have some sort of stupid attraction to many PUAs. Maybe it is a cheap way to boost their fragile ego? I don't know.....

Friday night, I was out with one of my girls and Sinn. Sinn was off doing his thing and I was hanging with my girl. Her and I were cutting up and having a good time.

As we are minding our own business, some community guy I didn't recognize decided to try and AMOG me. It was very obvious he was a community guy by the way he was dressed and his actions. I am not sure if he knew who I was or not but he was very persistant at breaking my set. Maybe he wanted to brag that he AMOGed Twitchy?????

I normally don't mind when guys come up and test the waters so to speak when I am with a girl. I typically date very attractive women and am used to guys coming up and flirting with my women. I don't really mind and often find it flattering. And when most guys realize that I am with the girl, they politely back away. No harm, no foul.

This guy wasn't polite or respectful however. And of course, he got blown out.

Whoever you are, lame PUA AMOGing guy, I have some tips for you.

DON'T try to open me with some lame line like "How 'bout them Lakers?". Especially when I am not watching TV and we are in Dallas.

DON'T keep plowing through when I say I don't care about the Lakers and then both my girl and I back turn you.

DO realize that you stink like loser chump, you have nothing on me and there is no way you could ever score a girl as hot as mine, no matter how many cheesy canned lines you can recite.

DO walk away once you have been back turned.

DON'T try to reopen us by grabbing my shoulder and trying to physically turn me to face you. Especially when you are about 6" shorter than me and weigh about 50lbs less.

DO walk away after I turn and glare at you for rudely pulling on my shoulder and then back turn you again.

DON'T then try to reopen me again with the same lame line about the Lakers. It didn't work the first time, it won't the second time

DON'T then open my girl with some compliment about her earings after it is obvious we don't want to talk to you.

DON'T stare at my girls breasts the whole time you are talking to her so much so that she leans into me and tells me that you are creeping her out.

DO walk away quickly when I interrupt your stupid story and tell you very aggressively, "Nice meeting you man, have a good one" and then both myself and my girl back turn you.

DON'T, DON'T, DON'T grab my shoulder again and try to physically turn me towards you. I know the community teaches that you should kino people to establish rapport. Physically trying to turn me is only going to piss me off.

DO run when I grab your hand and throw it off my shoulder, tell you to "Get your fucking hand off me" and back turn you yet again.

DON'T put your arm across my back yet again in some fake buddy-I-have-my-arm-around-you gesture and tell me to calm down.

DO get the hint and leave when I tell you to "Quit fucking touching me or I will put you down"

DO realize that I am not bluffing.

DON'T then open the set of 4 guys standing nearby with the same stupid line about the Lakers and then try to manipulate that group into starting conversation with my girl again. I KNOW the Mystery Method indirect tactics. They won't work on me.

DO realize you have lost the test of wits when I start slamming on you and you can't think fast enough on your feet to have a good come back.

DO understand that when I grab my girl's hand and we walk away from you that we are tired of you bothering us and are moving to a douche free zone.

DON'T then mumble "pussy" as I am walking away thinking that 1) I am not going to hear it and 2) if I do hear it, I am not going to do anything about it

DO run away like a little bitch when I abruptly turn and confront you. Oh yeah, that is right, you did do this. Good job! You finally got one right.

Lame AMOG PUA guy, I won't forget this. I can't wait to run into you again when I am not with a date.

The fact you think this guy is from the community says a lot about the community.

To "AMOG" someone is a stupid concept. I have posted this numerous times before.

Uh... no way...
Ok it is not me... I still have AA in a room full of overweight late 30's and 40's something ladies (Yep me this weekend at a Plentyof Fish get together).

So after a "disinterested turn of back" is the sign to leave the set gracefully.. right???

It is the nature of the PUA community to attract losers who are socially inept and have no success with women. Some of these losers grow and learn the social skills they need to become a cool guy...and some do not.

That said, I wouldn't be too sure the guy is in the community. There are plenty of Douchebags out there that dress in a peacocky manner, either to stand out or to get attention who have no knowledge of the community.

Of course he could very well be, PU teaches about having confidence and when some guys try to fake having confidence, they come off in this manner--I call it pseudo-confidence. Of course this is incongruent and creeps girls out...

Agree totally with you.

That's sad (for him) that he had to try that.

There are times when amogging is called for...

I have successfully AMOGged guys myself. But its usually in the context of the dude or dudes having approached a girl and been so ultra-LAME and the girl was wanting to be rescued.

I'd call that 'rescuing' as you are doing a service for the girl rescuing her from chodes.

Beyond that, there's really no reason to be a dickhead.

The best method for dealing with other guys in a venue, of course is....
BEFRIEND.

Befriend. Be a cool guy.

Don't become a sociopath like the guy in Twitchy's story.

I'm feelin you man. Fucking AMOGS sometimes jesus. I was out the other day, not with my girlfriend but with my little sister who i'm super protective over and i don't let her anywhere near anyone who knows "game" etc. and if anyone tries to pick her up at a bar and i'm there i'll fuck with them and DLV them. we were at blackfinn celebrating her new job, and every time i go out with her some fucking wanker always tries to pick her up in such a cheesy way. last time this guy was pulling on my shoulder like with you and started trying to make fun of my shirt after I cut him out of a conversation, like that was going to impress her or something, well it didn't and btw my shirt fucking rocks.

anyway, pesky fuckers. thumbs up for how you handled it, hopefully you scored some points there with your gf.

in my many years having a good looking sister i've also found that the best thing to do is to ignore and marginalize, and the second best thing is to make fun of him in a way that's not "confrontational" but makes everyone else laugh, they usually bolt then. Every now and then you run in to a real blockhead like you did, in that case IMO you did the right thing, although I've been guilty of putting a few fuckers down in the past when I was with an ex out of jealousy, before I gained a little more self control but that ended up hurting me with the girl. Funny how the supposed AMOGS often smaller than you too, I've noticed that more than not as well. Maybe I should call them aMOGS with a little "a." The ones who actually are "alpha" get the point much earlier and usually leave when the girl does the shutout. Crazy.

Yeah it's always retarded to try to AMOG the brother of the girl you're trying to pick up. She is going to look for his approval with respect to the guys she dates, so it's best to be on good terms with him.

You're a cool guy, btw.

Tell me more about your little sister. What type of personality does she have? Can she cook?
