I think you're looking for something and I think you care to a degree. But, who cares about that as well! Chem_guy is on the right track with his last post and I agree that this thread has run its course. Most of them do.

My opinion is that the OP is putting this kind of stuff on the forum for several of these reasons, the principal of which is to antagonize certain females. Possibly secondarily he is looking to brag a bit (seeking validation).

I don't know if this is what others are thinking, but I guess their conclusions are, possibly subconsciously, driven by the premise that someone whose online interactions are driven by misogyny and insecurity will not treat his girlfriend very well.
I couldn't rep you again

You have succinctly articulated EXACTLY how it is.

A "cold approach" is not an art nor is there any reason to highlight it. Men have successfully approached women they find attractive since the beginning of time, without needing to dissect their actions online and without a support group. It is a normal, natural thing to do. Elevating it to an "art" is just plain weird and makes me think you probably have low self-esteem due to a lack of money and looks, and as a result you have elevated the guy in this link because you relate to him. Get over it, and go out and talk to women you like.

Are you saying I am wrong, that men haven't been cold approaching women since the beginning of time? Instead of throwing a temper tantrum, learn to engage by stating your case. Otherwise, don't start a thread.

As sense? I don't get it.

If you had said it sounded like "ass scents" that would have been funny.

The sad thing is, there was nothing artful in the video he posted. The guy wasn't remotely charming in any way. He's the guy you might notice for a second just because he is so loud and oddly behaved, then you hurry past without making eye contact, praying he won't attempt to talk to you.

Men have been cold approaching women since beginning of time, but male/female dynamics have changed substantialy in the last 50 or so years. Not to mention, most still advise guys not to cold approach, but instead stick to freinds of freinds and their small social networks. Many CDR posters feel that cold approaching is creepy, which I think is insane in itself.

Ok, I fixed it to ASS-Sense (def. - the sense of an ass).... Ass scents is good too. You should know that I am often in my own little world with my humor...

Ass Sense:


I'll Make Your Ass Sense - YouTube

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Talk:ass

"Ass" meaning "stupid person" is not a shortening of "*******"; it's by analogy to the stubborn and learning-resistant donkey or mule. For instance, British speakers use "ass" in the sense of "stupid person" despite using "arse" (and "arsehole") for the anally-related meanings."



In conclusion, I feel "Ass-sense" is a perfect moniker for this thread.
