(the bangraman sits in a minimalist room on a straw mat. There is a tea set in front of him. He strokes his beard contemplatively. Etherial shakuhachi music plays in background. He seems to float a little in the air)


Rittle Glasshopper, risten carefurry. Talking about gleat guy does not entail you are gleat guy. Talking rong time about gleat guy in dodgy Spandex mean more you are boring ****.


Instead, become gleat guy. Get better conversation, leed more books, deverop more wide-langing hobby, do sports, hang out with different people. If that fail, rook for ladioactive spider.

Spiderman 2 is one of the greatest movies. In a way, it's a great love story disguised as a superhero movie. If women were to give this movie a chance they will see that Spiderman is really a wonderful love story with deep inner human conflicts. It touches the soul. It's heart breaking yet beautiful. This movie is deeper than many people think. Women should know the truth about Spiderman.

Here's a good indepth review of Spiderman 2.

May be because when a person hears Spiderman, 1st thing that comes to their mind is comic book, and as we all know comic book = geek

, comic book characters aren't the only topics women find unattractive. Other serious turn-offs include: Star Trek, anime, computer hardware, heavy politics, model airplanes, and gadgets in general including headphones. I'm generalizing of course (I did date a woman who was heavily into politics and LOTR), but in general it's good to stay away from these kinds of topics at least for the first while. Half of the problem is that many of these topics are not social, and the other half of the problem is that the types of people stereotypically involved in these areas are not the types of people they want to hang around with (geeky, poor social skills, obese, etc.).

I agree with Bangraman. Become a more well-rounded person, show that you're passionate about some unique topic, get involved in activities that broaden your social networks and develop usable social capital. For instance, knowing the guys at the comic book store is nice, but the social capital involved in that relationship is limited. In contrast, being a member of a group like the Kiwanis or the Masons or a local recreational sports team exposes you to both social events and a network of people that can help you with various things -- much more valuable social capital.

Firstly, take the word "chick" out of your vocabulary. Women are looking for men, they think comics are for boys. Not agreeing or disagreeing, but if you want to make a good impression, and maybe get the young lady to go out on a date with you, talk about things that women are interested in. Later after you have her interest (at least 2 weeks) you can bring up Spiderman and other similar topics. Try the safe topics at first like travel or career goals.

Or you can just be good looking.

A Head-Fier invariably has more money than the average person.

So freely tell the chicks you have money, they'll come in droves to suck your bank accounts dry faster than any audio equipment would!

Nope, we just eat less food.
