A guy once told me that I was rude and that I should read this book.

I told him to go fuck himself, I'll read what I want.

Is he your friend?

This book is PUA caliber creepy, but at least some nice libraries came out of it.


Azmo23 - 2014-07-08

wrong carnegie


Old_Zircon - 2014-07-08

No no no, you need to do that INdirectly.


Old_Zircon - 2014-07-08

Honestly, this cartoon makes it all seem a lot more reasonable and less sociopathic than the book (or having someone use it on you) does.


Old_Zircon - 2014-07-08

"Sociopathic" is probably too strong, too. I'll change that to "greasy as fuck."


Bort - 2014-07-08

"Greasy ass-fuck" sounds about right.

Also, why is Chris Elliott narrating this?


baleen - 2014-07-08

ahem.

"You fucking hipsters. What do you know from behind your little keyboards"


Bort - 2014-07-09

I think I know someone who uses this technique; it would explain why, when he's trying to persuade you of something, he says your name every other sentence. "The sweetest and most important sound in any language" my ass -- besides being bullshit, it's manipulative bullshit that relies upon the other person being a narcissistic douchebag.

This is basically the salesmanship strategy that mormon missionaries are taught to use. except for the part about sincerely trying to understand other's beliefs.

My brother, who is the worst person I know, once got this out of the library based on the title and reputation because he wanted to get people to do what he wants and was distraught to learn that the advice was "be nice to people." I once overheard him actually complain outright about this, mocking the book to someone (our dad, I think) because it doesn't provide real insight in how to manipulate people.

Great video, but -1 because I hate these "time-lapse writing on a whiteboard" videos.
