You guys act as if … You guys act as if Jessica would actually fall for this guys bs. He looks (and sounds) like he belongs in the west village or chelsea. But hey if the gay weakling look works then I guess I cant really argue it.
O shit, i just … O shit, i just watched it again, he gamed her up so nice. Watch her eyes and body position. she was about to touch him, but didn’t cause she realized what she was doing.
He he is dude. … He he is dude. Notice how she tried to get into the conversation,but he just casually dissmisses her, and slowly lets her in, then she starts ignoring jimmy. He might not even know he’s doing it, cuz he’s so good, but he is doing it.
dude he is actually … dude he is actually using it on her she is genuinely interested in him shes making eye contact and hes not givin her alot of attention only when she earns it look at 6:00 she has entered his space and went as far as to put her arm on his chair around 6:15 she has her body open towards him and if he wasnt facing toward jimmy, like a pickup artist ignores the target, she would of touched him …. this guy is a master
he was not gaming … he was not gaming anyone, just keepin his status, u know, the alpha status. sure, alba gave some IOI u could say but it was all casual, no intent, having a good time kind of IOI.
if he’s the best, it doesnt mean he does it all the time and everywhere..shit.
Very good video. I … Very good video. I love how Kimmel is both dumbfounded by Style’s terms at the same time as he is poking fun at them. “The Game” is a great book by the way and I highly recommend it. While Strauss/Style sums it up well in this video, reading it gives it a whole other depth, as it is really about more than The Game.
You said It, … You said It, Ullbritt. I’ve always imagined Style like having this strong presence (like Mystery) and a smooth and deep voice. But he actually looks like guy who work at hair saloons here in my country (Brazil).
Note: 95% percent of them are gay.
Still, Style’s a role model for all of us PUA wannabees.
The host of the … The host of the show hasn’t read the book. That is incredible! You would think he would have AT LEAST read the book, what a interviewer.
That’s probably the … That’s probably the best comment in this video. Jessica Alba is an actor in the end and how are you so sure that all this isn’t staged?
Neil is so insecure … Neil is so insecure. He is still the same shy guy as he was before. Just with the new look. Ok- he can play the game, I don’t deny it. I don’t deny it works. But at the end- he is still a scared, little boy. All alone. If you read the book, you know how unhappy they really are. It is fun to play. I do it too. But you have to know when to stop and try to live your life. Not a life with a nickname.
amen to that … amen to that brother! it really is fun to do it and it works, i do it all the time. but sometime you just gotta know your limits.
i know someone who just doesnt know when to stop.
this may sound lame and dorky but “with great power, comes with great responsibility.”
that sounded a lil gay too.
Of course he is … Of course he is scared. Anyone who plays the game should be scared. They have to paint a persona of being an alpha male because women are attracted to that hollow image. Cause the truth is, alpha males don’t prove to be more resourceful in today’s society than other males, unlike times before. But, women are still attracted to it, so you have to cater to that. Sucks. But hey, maybe one day women will evolve pass that. And some people have to stretch to fit the role more than others. Like Niel.
BTW, on a side note … BTW, on a side note…. I think Niel’s neg was outstanding here.
Notice how every time Alba speaks up, he acknowledges her in the tone as if he is speaking to an interrupting child. lol Just goes to show that negs aren’t always a line. 90% of what we say is not with our words. I personally think this is a safer way to neg as well. Especially with a target that is as knowledgeable as Alba.
you’re over … you’re over analysing it…dont deify the man. He wasnt putting game on Jessica. Well actually he was, but nothing to make her go doggy eyed. (He could do that if he wanted to, just no point to do soing at that setting).
OK Style right when … OK Style right when he came out on stage started the game. This is how, do you notice how he was focusing his attention to the host,Jimmy, and kinda ignoring the girl. And she would constantly be trying to get his attention, and then gradually turning his attention to her making her work for it, and then she was totally ignoring Jimmy. She was also giving out a lot of IOI’s. That right there my friends is one great PUA and it was so subtle.
