I just want to say FOR THE RECORD, that I didn’t buy this book. A certain Pirate Fembot left it at my house while she is out sailing the high seas. The book is called The Game and it’s about picking up chicks and is a prime example of why this particular Pirate Fembot is a menace. Fortunately she never reads my blog so I can say whatever I want about her and she’ll never even notice.

Amazingly, this girl is like 10x smarter than everyone around her.  That’s partly because she’s a heartless robot.  But it’s also partly because she spends her time reading bestselling non-fiction books on the secrets of pickup artists.  For six months this book has been sitting in my living room and I’ve only picked it up long enough to wipe under it.

Until today.

Before today I’d never even heard of Neil Strauss. I’d never heard of his book, “The Game” (despite its apparent new home in my living room).

So today I started reading it. And it’s got some really good info in it.

Stuff you would never ever want a crafty Pirate Fembot to know.

I’ve always loved performing magic.  I’ve never been particularly impressed with the big Vegas illusion kind of magic…I like the Harry Anderson street magic.  Cons,  Coins, Cards…pocket magic.   I never have given it nearly as much practice at it takes to be good.  But I’ve read a magic book or two.

The Game is kinda presented like  a magic book. It’s very matter-of-fact, it has diagrams, and terms like selecting a target (or a mark).  But instead of dealing with how to make people think you just read their mind, it’s about the practicality of meeting people….specifically girls.

How you present yourself, how you speak, the clothes you wear…all the things that actually make up “YOU”…are dealt with.  As are, the things you say, how much you listen, what to listen for, and  some actual tricks…ahem…techniques to achieve your goals with members of the opposite sex….whatever they may be.  Maybe you’re looking to get laid, maybe you’re just looking for someone to hang out with…whatever.

None of this information, whatsoever, will help me solve this Pirate Fembot issue.   If she knows all the stuff in this book, she’s probably already been reverse using it on me.

Wait…I’m just assuming she read it.   Maybe she just wants me to THINK she’s read it?  BLARG! This is the kind of trickery that Pirate Fembots are known for!  They trick you and then they steal your booty.

Why?  Because that’s why Pirate Fembots do.

She’s out there, men.  Beware.
