How to pick up girls
And other lessons, ethical and otherwise, of ‘The Game’

Strauss
Neil Strauss made himself into a well-known pickup artist.
NEW YORK (AP) — If you want to meet Neil Strauss, you have go to a bar. You just have to. That’s his territory.
Strauss, you see, has spent the past two years turning himself into one of the best pickup artists in the world. He’s gotten so good that he even teaches others.
“I can get any guy to go up to the most unapproachable, stunning girl and make her interested, make her laugh and make her love him,” he says.
Make no mistake: Strauss, a Rolling Stone writer who has ghost written books by Motley Crue and porn star Jenna Jameson, is not particularly gorgeous. With his shaved head, goatee and slender frame, he resembles an emaciated Howie Mandel. But the dude’s got game — a series of techniques he has adapted from a secretive community of seduction artists that can beguile and hook the hottest of women better than if he looked like Brad Pitt.
“I’m messing up the genetic code,” he says with a laugh.

    yeah really? having a good looking chick means having magnetic skills? the guy wears gold boots? the genius of this guy is that he compiled general knowledge, personalized it and brought a decent pair of tits(maybe? where’s her pic?) to a CNN interview. sounds alot like a get a bigger dick ad. you either got it or you don’t, no matter what you look like. i just jealous the skin made some bucks really.
