| The Pickup Artist Is anyone watching the show? I find it endlessly entertaining. I was thinking that their names were extemely cheesy especially how they dressed themselves. Without knowing the relationship, I found the book, "The Game" by Neil Strauss, and it is a fantastic read. It talks about how this writer stumbles into the world and becomes the best PUA. | |||

| I've caught bits and pieces of thi show. It reminds me of Beauty and the Geek. The actua pua on the show seem a little weird though. I think I would be frightened by them if i met them in a club! The ahow is entertaining though. | |||

| You should really read the book then. Part of the reason that they "look weird" is just to do what all of the other people in the club aren't. If a guy walks into a room w/ a Mickey Mouse hat on, you'd all turn your head, but if it was in Disneyworld, it would be normal and you wouldn't notice. He uses it as an accessory as ice breakers. If a guy wears something like that and a girl comes up to him, she already shown interest in the guy without even trying. I still think using those avatars in public sound ridiculous, but I think he is right in some of the things he says. | |||

| Oh this show is hilarious! I've been watching from the start & I can't get enough. I do think the idea of tricking girls into liking you is wrong, but watching them & their tutors in action is very entertaining tv. As for this week, I can't believe Pradeep survived. The guy has been a jerk from the start. I think that's the only thing keeping him on the show b/c he stirs the pot sorta speak. | |||

| Well I do think the things they say are "rehearsed", but I its more about guiding or making the conversation to start you more interesting. I wanted to see Spoon for more than the first episode. I think Mystery got his black hat from a strip club And what is the kiss on his neck all about? | |||

| Yeah I felt bad that Spoon quit. I was hoping Pradeep would follow through with quiting this week though. I like Joe D & Kosmo to get to the finale myself. | |||

| Imagine if Mystery was the size of Verne Troyer.... do you think he would be as successful? Or would he be more b/c a dwarf might be a checklist item to cross off for them? ![]() | |||

| Read "The Game". It details where he came from. In a nutshell, he's a pick up artist who sprang up when the internet started and they started to share "pickup techniques" in messageboards. He used to sell his services to guys. After awhile, the scene became so big that everyone was doing his routines in LA b/c they would copy his dress & everything. | |||
