This man was in the T-shirt he was planning to wear when the whole class went out to a bar that night, trolling for babes. It had two lines of printing on it. At chest level, in big letters, it said “The Man” with an arrow pointing up. At belly level, in big letters, it said, “The Legend” with an arrow pointing down. (The Don gently suggested that he change.)
*
“He needs to be going for kino!” an instructor grumbled. In the patois of the seduction industry, “kino” stands for “kinesthesia,” or touching. Something needed to be done! Something subtle but effective! So, pretending to be on his cellphone, the instructor walked behind the student and yelled into the phone: “Kino! Kino! Kino!”

“The other thing you need to know is that, even though the 12 students each paid $3,000 to take this class, they are not pathetic losers.”
Uh, sure.
rockdalian on January 26, 2008 at 10:24 PM
Absolutely. Tend to make sure the opportunity presents itself as well.
Spirit of 1776 on January 26, 2008 at 10:24 PM
I don’t know who I like less, the Don or Gene Weingarten.
I think he’s off-base about lying, anyway. Never works.
IMO, it’s some combination of blind confidence and being the anti-George, whatever that might be for you.
Purple Fury on January 26, 2008 at 10:24 PM
I like the very end, where he “has game” ;) The rest is your typical “How to get a woman” seminar you can find in 15,000 different places.
Btw, first!
mcrabben7 on January 26, 2008 at 10:25 PM
So was it worth 3K Allah?
frreal on January 26, 2008 at 10:28 PM
I think the politically correct term around here is “beta males.”
billy on January 26, 2008 at 10:29 PM
I would have guessed that Allah was one of the instructors!

Uh, losers! Big time.
Tell me you were not one of the students AP.
conservnut on January 26, 2008 at 10:35 PM
Heh. I want to know what that guy thinks “seeing a girl” means. I’m guessing he means through the window:)
Spirit of 1776 on January 26, 2008 at 10:38 PM
Who needs to pay $3000? All you need to do is dance like The Gergen:

For $3000 I’m sure you must get a years supply of date rape drugs as well.
For $3000 I’m sure you should get a practice babe for the whole weekend as well.
For $3000 you should get a guarantee from The Don that it works or he blows you.
BL@KBIRD on January 26, 2008 at 10:43 PM
For $3000.00 you could buy an escort every night for almost a year.
Kini on January 26, 2008 at 10:55 PM
I will save you the 3K. The secret to getting the girl.
BOOZE! Getting men laid for 5000 years.
ronsfi on January 26, 2008 at 11:03 PM
It isn’t stalking if you’re really in love.
ronsfi on January 26, 2008 at 11:05 PM
your honor.
ronsfi on January 26, 2008 at 11:05 PM
ROFL. So glad I checked this thread again! That was great.
Spirit of 1776 on January 26, 2008 at 11:14 PM
thats an $8.25 a night hooker, dude. caveat emptor….
liquidflorian on January 26, 2008 at 11:15 PM
Brush your teeth, smile, and don’t lie.
The only line you need to know.
That’ll be $3000.
profitsbeard on January 26, 2008 at 11:19 PM
Damn, I’m in the wrong freakin’ business. I need a platform. I need to be a life-coach or something like that. The trick that the columnist pulled off is much like the one that Fast Eddie pulled in The Color of Money.
robblefarian on January 26, 2008 at 11:20 PM
Ouch to Allah. Although I suppose it doesn’t help that, “[T]here is nothing at all disreputable about this enterprise, according to The Don, who would not let me use his real name because under no circumstances did he want his relatives, potential girlfriends or prospective employers to find out what he does.”
That said, writing that article must have been like shooting fish in a barrel.
calbear on January 26, 2008 at 11:37 PM
Here’s what I learned from that article: a great way to get chicks is to say you’re working on a story and ask ‘em if they’d participate in a friendly little sting to put some misogynists in their place.
Levy on January 27, 2008 at 12:06 AM
And now the secret to Red Eye’s ability to book the babes has been revealed…
If anyone is interested, though, for $3000 I’ll teach you the secret to writing epic poems. They worked for me with Suzanne Sena. They can work for you too! Just paypal me at Ace’s for my free newsletter!
Jack M. on January 27, 2008 at 12:17 AM
Levy on January 27, 2008 at 12:06 AM
Damn Levy, that’s gist of the article isn’t it?
Makes me wish I were still single.
billy on January 27, 2008 at 12:19 AM
There’s the rub. The secret to getting chicks for real is to care about the other person. Once you care about the person, you’re not single anymore.
pedestrian on January 27, 2008 at 12:27 AM
Oh brother were art thou,the guy with the t-shirt
with the arrow pointing down to stupid and going to
the bar,is going to make all the dudette’s laugh
their AO all night long,of course if he’s lucky
he’ll meet a Liberal moonbat dudette,talk about
Clinton,and——————————–score!Haha
canopfor on January 27, 2008 at 12:36 AM
I think the columnist is the real loser here…or whomever paid his way in. Three grand and he didn’t even get any digits!
JollyRoger on January 27, 2008 at 1:48 AM
From reading the article, I suppose wearing my “Don’t F*** with Mr. Zero” t-shirt would be at cross purposes.
(Film reference!)
scatbug on January 27, 2008 at 3:10 AM
so who do i send my $3000 to and how do i register?
custer on January 27, 2008 at 9:03 AM
Bottle of Mad Dog 20/20 $4.83
Jar of Vaseline $3.71
Pay Per View Adult Flick $12.99
Night alone with the “one” you love, Priceless
SPIFF1669 on January 27, 2008 at 9:17 AM
hahahahaha
Uh…No it doesn’t. We think it’s creepy when a man we don’t know starts touching us on our hands, arms, hair, small of the back, etc.
No wonder the student couldn’t do it to a woman he had just met – he was right and the instructor was wack. No wonder he doesn’t want any of the women he knows to know what he does. They’d set him straight, is what.
inviolet on January 27, 2008 at 11:00 AM
“They are not pathetic losers”
…sounds an awful lot like:
“I am not a crook”
In each case: “Methinks they doth protest too much”!!
landlines on January 27, 2008 at 12:55 PM
I know a lot of women who would fall for this crap — I would never want to date them, let alone take them home for a one night stand.
mesablue on January 27, 2008 at 6:35 PM
Want to pick up* women with all the same set of benefits and expected follow ups offered by The Don for a lot less money and no wasted blather?
Get a van and a two by four and park outside clubs.
*literally
BL@KBIRD on January 27, 2008 at 7:59 PM
Another male that is bragging. True legends have no need to advertise.
