    Anyone know of any Pick Up Artists or if there is a PUA communtiy in Ireland?
    I just saw a really interesting documentary on Channel 4 on the UK PUA scene.

    There's a whole community of guys who have systems and techniques to pick-up girls. The channel 4 documentary followed them round for a few months, showing their techniques etc. It was kinda strange but very interesting!

    Not really. Although it'd be nice to get a few more. The more the merrier as they say in France.

    So to answer your question. Yes.

    Nope. There's just the one female mod who's managed to grab a piece of Pigheads heart. Never raped her either.

    No medals needed Collie D. A smile and a saucy PM from the fair lady is more than enough of a prize.

    Anyway back on topic. Are you any good at pulling chicks CD? Pighead heard you're favourite chat up line is:
    "Hi I'm Collie D from boards. I might not be the best looking bloke here, but beauty is only a light switch away."

    I don't think they call it pulling.

    The term 'sarging' is what is used, I believe.

    Funny you should post this OP, I just started reading The Game last night. Pretty crazy stuff.

    Don't know anything about a scene in Ireland though.

    Come on, tubby. At best I thought you could be humourous in your putdowns at times, you stole that from a taxi driver's thread yesterday.

    As for the pulling, I like to think I have a certain degree of charm about me. Helps when you're an ugle bastard I suppose.

    Taxi driver thread? Pighead pleads not guilty there buddy. Wasn't on boards at all yesterday. Been using that line for years. Love making ugly people cry.

    Anyway would you do Pighead a favour and send him the link to the post in question. Have to nip these plagierizers in the bud.

    I'm sorry to be the one to inform you about this, but if you're trying to pick up women by joining up with some club of men, you've already failed.




    (unless said club involves pirates of course)

    I'll ask. What's 'sarging?'

    'Sarging' is going out with the purpose of meeting females.
    It's a term coined by Ross Jeffries, one of the original seduction 'gurus' after his cat "Sarge".

    some extras:
    A pickup artist (PUA) can "sarge" alone, or with a friend (wingman).
    Some of the terms used in the 'community' stem from
    the movie TOP GUN but not in this case.

    yes - you need to be dedicated to it, like everything where u expect to get better - does work though.... very well. but - u have to be willing to make a tit of urself.

    What was the documentary called?

    I thought the Game was a great read. The whole PUA scene seems kind of creepy to me... some of the guys Strauss talks about in the book are great at picking up women using learned and rehashed routines, but can't hold a simple conversation if they don't have a prepared "script" to fall back on.

    Incidentally another poster mentioned David DeAngelo. His stuff is definitely worth checking out. It focuses more on bettering yourself, rather than learning what to say by rote.

    Very true, but once you start enjoying making a tit out of yourself, your on the way to becoming a PUA
