I recently watched part of the documentary The Pickup Game (2019). Obviously, it was made with the intention of depicting the PUA community in a bad light, and in that regard, this documentary surely was a success. Some of the smarter people, however, used their screen time in order to promote themselves and improve their… Continue reading Ross Jeffries and the Problem of Aging PUAs
The other day I got an email from Scotty Flamingo, completely out of the blue. You may be familiar with him. I met Scotty in person when I visited NYC about a decade ago, and we had a lot of fun hitting the clubs together. He is has a small YouTube channel with quite a… Continue reading Scotty Flamingo is Back!
I have not written a lot about the legal challenges of esteemed PUAs on this blog, in contrast to my former blog on Blogspot. Of course, part of the reason is that the PUA scene is basically dead. It is also the case that after public backlash to maladjusted PUAs accosting women in public there… Continue reading Guest Post: The Rape Trial of the PUA “Bald and Bankrupt” (By Anonymous)
A while ago a video made the rounds in which a guy goes around, insulting a bunch of scantily dressed women and, upon receiving a less than favorable response, pepper sprays them, supposedly in self-defense. On an aside, I came across the video first with the attached claim that this incel goes around harassing prostitutes.… Continue reading Social Retardation: PUAs and the “Based Incel Warrior”
As has become obvious even to those who used to fully buy into the promises of the pick-up industry, “game” does not exist. If she is not attracted to you, then approaching her from a 45-degree angle from behind or asking her if she flosses before or after brushing is not going to get her… Continue reading Do you have Anti-Game?
I recently wrote a post about a guy in the UK who is facing up to ten years in jail and may have to register as a sex offender for touching a girl’s elbow. It was a girl he knew from his school, but that did not help him. He just wasn’t good-looking enough. That… Continue reading Pick-up Artist Jailed for Two Years for Creeping Out Girls
Those of you who have been around for a decade or so are probably familiar with Assanova. If not, then maybe you have had a look at the few sites I link to from this blog, which includes an archive of some of his posts. If you are not familiar with him, then maybe you’ll… Continue reading Assanova is Back!
Readers of my old blog remember me publishing evidence that NYC-based PUA Justin Wayne is a scammer. That was back in 2012 and way before he made it big on YouTube. I had completely forgotten about this, but about two months ago I received an email from VICE. I will post my email exchange below,… Continue reading About VICE News’ Exposure of Justin Wayne
(Note: In 2013 I wrote the multi-part series of blog posts The Great Manosphere Invasion of Russia. Below you’ll find a barely edited follow-up article, which I didn’t get around to publish until now. Did I mention that I’ve been very busy the last few years?) We’ve spent quite some time discussing the problems of… Continue reading What is Roosh V’s end game?
In the comments section there was recently a discussion on old PUA concepts being alive and kicking. I think it was Alek Novy who remarked that the few remaining companies are no longer absurdly ridiculous and distance themselves from their former teachings. Out of curiosity, I clicked around a little bit. Note that I’m not… Continue reading Look at this future pussy slayer!
