So last Friday I was at the Puma store at the mall "South Coast Plaza". I had bough the wrong size shoes previously when I was in a hurry so I can back to exchange them for 12s.
There was this creepyish asian (gay?) guy eavesdropping the convo. with the teller. Then as I sat down to lace them up I noticed he was standing around and talking to the DJ there and kept lookin at me.
When I finished lacing them up I put em on and walked out (because I was in a bit of a hurry again), they did fit this time. Success! So I was walking really fast and I guess the azn dude was following me and finally caught up to me at the escalator.
Out of no where I hear, "How tall are you?" (hes behind me). I was like wtf, "Six-two". He proceeds to ask me a bunch of other questions about where I'm from, where I work, etc. On the course of the escalator. This whole conversation is taking place over my shoulder and is pretty akward. At the bottom he hands me a card and says, "Call me". I said, "Ok" even though I didn't know wtf was going on or why he wanted me to call him (Jeffrey Dahmer anyone?). His card is pretty fancy but says nothing other than "Bong Prada Lim", phone numbers and email.
I just pulled it out today and googled the name and found lots of pictures of the guy and bunch of shit mentioning him. He is apparently "Fashion Stylist and Los Angeles’ Patron of the Arts" whatever that means. So I assume he is some kind of recruiter of models or designer or something.
So Should I call the guy?
Poll: Respond? (Vote): Call him (Vote): Throw away the card (Vote): Email him (Vote): Fuck with him?

hey you might get into some $$ so why not? Might be wise to perhaps not use your house phone / cell phone though if he turns out to be shady.
I guess hope for the best prepare for the worst, and if he wants some $$ from you in advance and shit gtfo of there.

I'd say go into it with an attitude of 'this probably won't be anything but I'll hear him out'
|
|
shit dude call him and see what he wants from u, if it is a job see what it offers. u may be able to make some decent money.
|
but his card doesnt have any professional information?

My first gf was constantly getting handed business cards. Most of the people were sleezy and illegit. Might as well give it a go. Then you can tell every girl you ever meet, "yeah I model here and there, meh"
|
He's probably trying to recruit you for runway modeling. It really isn't for everybody, but go for it.
|
So, I wrote him an email.
|
what do yo uhave to lose go for it

But whatever.
|

|

Call.
You'll either get raped, or get paid. If he rapes you, just close your eyes and pretend it's sAviOr.
|
post a picture of yourself here so when you get kidnapped john dahmer style we could spread the word and try to find you.
|
You're gonna get buttraped!!!!!
Most of these dudes are sleazeballs anyway
|
post pic of self (for our cruel criticism) and call him promptly.
|
Do you have any idea how much people pay for models? a shitload, and all you have to do is like gel your hair and turn a little bit and smile i think. If you get the opportunity you can make cash for doing nothing.
|
easy money + possible traveling + female model co-workers = ok go!
|
I want to see a photo of you. OO
A bw foreign player as model ? Cant be real xD.
|

'the rest of the day' ... l2text =p imo jus call him and if u cant get anything definite out of him in that one phone call jus ignore him. call >> email cuz u can always dodge in an email response

Exactly.
Say "Did you give me your card for business or personal reasons?"
That would work.
|

|
|
you are spor"? shit we used to have BM wars like 4 years ago on west LOL.
|
What you mean like talk shit? What is your name(s) on west?
|

Pride> Money?
|

Obvious insta-call in this situation, no matter how much he raises.
|
Hahahah
But yeah, call him from a payphone or something
|
Yea the emails have gotten stranger and more leading me to believe I should just fold.
"Hello ! I'm back but have not heard from you ! Hope all is well . Please call" Thu 7/24/08 10:39 AM
Subject: Whats Up? "I want to see u ! Call me" Sun 7/27/08 11:18 AM

just ask him what he wants from you. gay sex or modelling
|
sounds like he has you on a spam list, he is probably going to hit you up to do some multi level marketing.
|
|
Update? Send an email just asking what it's regarding.
|
He looks like one shady negro.
|
E-mail in case is isn't legit.
|
|
where's the "fuck with him" and upload/post video on tl ?
|
new poll pls
|
hmm i think if you decide to meet him, bring a friend (girl) and you decide where to go, because this smells very fishy. Either way, I already fear for your life.
|
Don't worry, he's fine, my uncle's always like that, so just meet up with him and have fun.
