I want the book that Lane Meyer's 12 year old brother was reading in Better Off Dead... I think it was called "How to Pick Up Trashy Women." Now that's an investment...

I wonder why no one just makes all the content available for free online. I mean, someone must have bought the damn thing.

Lovely, elle? Hm. Okay. Sure.
I like that the logo for the site is an A inside a circle. The message thus being (that's right) that the finest trashy chiquitas go for anarchist dudes. Fekkin' A!
Take that, jocks and rockers of the world!

Yah, probly, but she (trashygurl, I mean)'s really working what she's got, gwawdblessher.
And kcalder, if this valuable information actually was given away for free, on the web where any ole loser (like, say, me, not to name names) could get to it, then everyone would have it, and the guarded secrets of playboy caballeros everywhere would no longer be secrets!
Then we'd all be rutting in the streets, all day, all night, and the economy would go right down the pooper! Right down there! Just like [snap] that!
These pick-up secrets must stay secret! The very integrity of our social system depends on it!

just to clarify: yes, the detector was working. i didn't think there would be any question, and appearently, everyone here does think she is pretty gross. so there you go.

Can you imagine the poor dude that had to do the "research" for the book? I'd wager he got slapped in the face more times than all Three Stooges put together. And, yes, elle, I'm with you - if those are the kinds of "women" that you'd pick up by reading that book, then I'll feign illiteracy.
And as for the Lane Meyer reference: hey, sure it worked the Badger, but then, he could build a rocket ship out of household appliances. If I could do that, then maybe I'd pick up trashy women, too (who are still probably a cut or two (or three) above the ones pictured on attractwomennow.com).

You know, that chick on the front page is a little trashy, but I'm sure she cleans up real nice.

If you really want to get a piece, stop surfing the Web and reading stupid books. :)

Piece of what, gleemax? I don't understand.
And what are these books of which you speak? I saw something about books over on /. and now you're talking them here - is it some AYBABTU type meme thing?
Could someone provide a link to one of these book-things, please?

Being french, this look to me as cheap way to exploit the despair of some clumsy (american) geeks. As you all know, we got the thing from birth and tend to scare off every girl boyfriend as we enter the house... It ain't a secret, it's just instinctive, thus can't be learn :)

kush, a lot of Americans must be geeks, then, because stuff like this has been around for years!
I think most Americans would agree that French guys have it all over them in terms of les demoiselles. But you're all smelly, unshaven, cigarette-smoking assholes, too, which balances things out. ;-)

dhartung: true, I'm an unshaven, cigarette-smoking, asshole, but I'm NOT smelly. This is a myth, we do wash (sometimes)!

Another thing - regarding the title quote.
11 chicks in 6 weeks is not quite two a week. Which means this Delmaire character, their BIG SUCCESS STORY, the attractwomennow.com Studpuppet-Poster Buoy, is still getting no action at least five days a week.
And (and!) of those eleven chicks, he's only actually gotten past first base with six. That's barely more than a 50% conversion rate, among only those women he was already necking with.
So their B.S.S., Studly Whiplash Numbero Uno, is still sleeping alone six nights out of seven.
YM, of course, MV, but this stats geek over here doesn't feel so bad about his own life right now.

Just imagine when those customer testimonials show up when a lady decides to google the man she just slept with... But I guess it wouldn't matter at that point, since they would have likely already slept with the slimy guy already anyway, right?

thanks for the link above (comment #2), waxpancake. I love the name Speed Seduction! Has all the romance of a hit-and-run. Makes you wonder if the women that get "speed seduced" are left standing there, dazed and wondering "who was that masked man?" and "where did my panties go?"

Well, of course. After all, male geeks have more sex than the average Joe, remember?
