Here is a thing i really like, and that has given me alot of fun

It's called the five question game and it's basicly a really good conversation starter or ice breaker when talking to someone for the first time or just to fool your friends.



The guy in the video is Neil Strauss or "Style" a famous pickup artist, a guy that is an expert on picking up girls

So basicly most persons will figure out the first "trick question" (where you say "hmm how many questions was that? (even thoough some will get fooled by that to)
and they get all happy that they got you and then you hit them with the last one. it's a nice moment

Anyway what i learnd is that you should remember to say: "just stop me if you heard this before" becouse otherwise the last question might be wrong, and say thing like "what if i heard it before?" and you'll loose some of the magic

Anyway, Have fun and i hope this was not posted before.

*sigh*
He asks "how many was that"
the answer to which is 3, but if they answer 5(or any number but 3), then you follow up with "have you played this before?"

did you even watch the video?

This is worse than the 'does your mom know that you're gay' joke cause the guy tells her how it works before she even says anything. How can you be stupid enough to fall for this? I would've just sat there with being paranoid about every question because obviously I would've been counting the questions.

This is wrong. Totally not an opener. Neil never uses this as an opener. This is definitely a comfort building game. This game is probably played in C1.

The no-pressure, ice breaking convo would be one of the many openers he invented: Jealous GF (I hear that's not so good to open with), who lies more, Two-part kiss opener, etc. If you've read about him, and how he approaches women, or if you've ever seen him demonstrate, it's amazing.

Haha that's pretty good. It's easy for me to sit here and think "I would totally focus on everything he says so that I wouldn't get tricked like that" but I think that's only because I saw him do it to her. If he did that to me before I saw that, I think I would've fallen for it too.
Oh no

you can't answer the question "Does your mom know you're gay?" without tacitly admitting that you're gay.

what depresses me is that people were taking notes in the video.

and this game sucks, if you want to have an icebreaker, be yourself and talk. If you cant do that just go on irc and say "hi", that breaks the ice most of the time.

The funny thing is, the next thing the girl would ask if where the game comes from then you'll have to say "yeah i had to youtube this or read this losers book about how to pick up girls"

all i can say, get a life

I've tried this '5 question game' in the past before countless times, and it works. Anyone saying Neil strauss is an idiot and the game doesn't work and is for losers:

As sweetlemons said, I don't think you should use this as an opener to break the ice with some random chick at the bar. This routine is probably best used in the comfort-building stage where some sort of rapport has already been built between the two of you. I guess you could use it but you might come across as a little weird (unless she is already into you before you open).
