*Spoilers below* I recently finished the Wordsworth Classics Essential Kafka; my verdict: Kafka was a massive narcissist. As I read through the unfinished novels and short stories I pieced together evidence to support that claim: Kafka’s relationship with his perfectionist father; the presence of an oppressive authority (the narcissist’s super-ego); the fact that his main … Continue reading Narcissism, Kafka and Game

#64: Long Live the Car Crash Hearts (Analysis)
The Time of Day: it turns out the pussy paradise isn’t a place, it’s a time… man. Jokes aside it’s worth thinking about. I think 11am to 1pm has a higher ROI for me than, say, 2pm to 4pm. Someone more extroverted than me would say that 11pm to 1am has a higher ROI because … Continue reading #64: Long Live the Car Crash Hearts (Analysis)
#64: Long Live the Car Crash Hearts
I’ve figured recently that weekend afternoons are actually a poor time to Daygame. Sacrilege, I know. My reasoning is that if you head out between 11am and midday then you’ll catch more solo girls as they are on their way to meet friends rather than heading out in the afternoon when they are already in … Continue reading #64: Long Live the Car Crash Hearts
#63: (And Die With Your Mask On If You’ve Got To) (Analysis)
Afterwork Daygame: everyone knows it’s a ballache to pack up at work, head home, whack your Daygame gear on and then head out with an effective vibe. One way to get over this particular difficulty is to make it as easy for yourself as possible. Don’t tell yourself your going to “hit the streets hard” … Continue reading #63: (And Die With Your Mask On If You’ve Got To) (Analysis)
#63: (And Die With Your Mask On If You’ve Got To)
It was a humid, overcast and sticky summer evening and I was out solo (T). So far I’d reeled off three sets and got one number: an American girl who was only in town for the weekend. She never came out (T). I turned onto Oxford Street and started making my way towards Tottenham Court … Continue reading #63: (And Die With Your Mask On If You’ve Got To)
Momentum
The problem with momentum is that you can’t go out looking for it, you have to wait for it to come to you. This post is as much a reminder to me that I should stick to what I do best, and not be tempted by the ‘dark side of Daygame.’ Last year, for a … Continue reading Momentum
The Stealth-On Super Slut
I think I’ve observed this phenomena enough to write a post on it. Let me describe a situation which many of us have been in: You’re on a date with a girl and you’re pretty sure she likes you. Maybe the date came off of the back of a strong set, or strong texting, perhaps … Continue reading The Stealth-On Super Slut
Narcissistic Injury and Game
I’ve been reading Sam Vaknin’s Malignant Self-Love: Narcissism Revisited recently in an effort to understand myself better and improve my Inner Game. Whereas I don’t want to (and technically cannot) diagnose myself with any personality disorder I can’t help but read his book and think about how it applies to myself. Narcissism exists as a … Continue reading Narcissistic Injury and Game
Narcissistic Personality Disorder and Game
Recently I’ve been ‘working on my Inner Game’. That’s right. I’ve realised that this is the next frontier in my Game and this is where the growth is going to come from; as a person as well as for results. There will be a longer post on this process in the future but for now … Continue reading Narcissistic Personality Disorder and Game
#62: Dead Simple (Analysis)
IOIs: there’s so much that could be said here but I’ll focus on two things: 1) you should position yourself to get more IOIs by walking in the middle of any area, or as close as possible; I see too many guys skirting along the edge of the pavement, not thinking about their placement at … Continue reading #62: Dead Simple (Analysis)
