Comments on: On the Subject of Prospects http://thedrunkenblog.com/2006/12/31/on-the-subject-of-prospects/ I drink, there I am.

I mean, it was entertaining enough for me to take the time to figure out how to fix James’ stereo, which involved me going on his computer, locating and then downloading the manual, then downloading and installing Acrobat so that I could actually open the manual, and then taking the time to actually read through the manual to find the solution to the problem. The party wasn’t all bad, though, the people that were there were nice enough, even if it was mostly guys and there weren’t any prospects. A notable conversation happened between Jake and Bob’s girlfriend, Karen, it was actually a pretty ironic conversation. [...] […] At first glance this party was busted.

However, if she comes on to me while I’m drunk with an axe to grind, I’ll be too indifferent to tell her I am not actually a blacksmith. There is a point in attractiveness that you simply won’t take their business, but it’s a slide-scale that constantly changes depending on the time of night, the amount of alcohol imbibed, and the number of prospects available, among other things.

Then your game's blown, you become "that guy" and once again, we hold all the power. Muahahaha.

Interesting entry, I had a clue of the man's game, but didn't know it could be broken down to such an extent. I don't know if girls, or fine the girls I know, generally go out with the mindset of finding prospects for the night. Drunken rambling and fun are normally the goal, but I guess men with this prospect objective are the ones that make the night more fun.. hmm, it is all linked together. Interesting, maybe we do have prospects in mind, we just don't know who they are yet..hmm. Hmm.

That reminds me of the last game of fuck the dealer I player where one girl was completely mystified as to how, for 3 straight rounds, everyone was guessing every card every time. Of course, someone was looking at the cards because she wasn't hiding them properly and then holding his hand up in the air to give the numbers. Like shooting fish in a barrel. Nice entry.
