Boyfriend Destroyer?

What do you do if you’re being used… and you know it? An awkward scenario in which to find yourself embroiled is to be dating a girl you like, who also likes you and has made that known, but who is deep into a multi-year relationship with another guy that she has told you about, […]

A reader sent me this pic of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes and wondered if it showed that Cruise is secretly a nancyboy beta: signaling the mothership. The average man could not get away with this obsequious lean-in. If the average man did this with his girlfriend in public men looking on would cringe and […]

I went to a speed dating event here in DC with my date and one of her girlfriends. The idea was that we would have some over-the-top fun with it while practicing our flirting skills on a maximum number of targets in a minimum amount of time in order to keep our game sharp. (Lord […]

These guys were talking to a couple of women at Marvin when an attractive third girl who was a friend of the women showed up. I walked over to occupy chat up the friend and our conversation was good. She was flirty, fun and all smiles. We talked for maybe ten minutes when I felt […]

Take a look at this “man” (and I use the term loosely): This twee little turd was photographed at the opening of the new Brooklyn Flea market, written about in this New York Times article . The annoyance level of this picture is a 9 on the Prickter scale. There’s so much hideousness to choose […]

The girls were mostly mid 20s to mid 30s and were very approachable. When women reach a certain age they stop sitting in a tight circle with their backs […]

Cat On A Leash

UPDATE Reader Leena sent in this photo of a cat in a stroller that is whisked around town by its owners: I thought the end of America would be a long, slow decline over generations, but now I think it might happen in a matter of years. My man about town, Zeets the Throwback Barbarian, […]

Dancing Douche

Prop Sometimes the scene will yield the perfect prop to exploit for bonding with girls. This guy gave us ten minutes of quality entertainment: I know it’s hard to see (dark, buzzing cameraman) but there is a guy dancing in front of the fish tank holding a cell phone to his ear. I’m pretty sure […]

What’s Annoying In This Picture?

Answer below The satchel. As everyone helpfully pointed out, there are a lot of annoying things in this picture. But the satchel-wearing herb is the most annoying of them all. Its 1AM and he’s drinking a beer in a loud bar environment that is not conducive to bringing textbooks and studying for an art history […]

Hovering

One of the most socially inept mistakes I see guys doing is the Rejection Hover. (The Hesitation Hover is almost as bad but at least in that scenario the guy can pretend he’s just waiting around for a friend to arrive.) It usually happens like this: Guy walks up to a girl who is alone […]
