…. and I’m not talking about Sparta.
Welcome to March Madness. How does your bracket look? Speaking about bracketeering, welcome back to Pick Up Labs. Where we bring you bigger plays than the tournament. This week, we have another big play by one of your best players from the Stylelife Academy: PRODIGY.
I could sit here and type up a huge story about this routine, and how it is an awesome game (much like the Cube or Strawberry Fields). I could tell you that it is very short and very easy to remember. BUT, I would rather you guys told me what you think. The last routine was put together really well, but didn’t get much feedback. I want to hear what you guys think.
So, on that note, I give you:
I want to know how this works out for you. Post the answers to the questions listed on the PDF and let the GAMES BEGIN. And hopefully your love life can look better than your bracket.
KEEP FRAMING AND GAMING

I’m going to nitpick here a little bit. I actually posted this on the Stylelife Forum back when Style did the very first Stylelife Challenge. It’s from Chuck Palahniuk’s “Diary” and it’s a Carl Jung personality test.
I left out the white room for the exact reason you guys did. Also, the animal is actually how you view other people, not how they view you. That’s an interesting way to do it though.
It was originally a test for artists to help discover their own inspiration, or something to that effect. Good luck though, this is one of the first routines i was using on girls, before i knew a thing about PUAs.

Thanks Big S! I had heard about this before I got into Pickup as well, and I never knew where it originally came from.
As for the animal, I had heard about it the way you describe originally however like The Cube this is modified for Pickup alot of people usually disagreed with how it originally was, so I altered it and it seems to be more accurate.
Since youve had some success with it you should report back to us!

Sure:
1. Does it work successfully? Yes, most of the time. Once i asked a girl to tell me her 3 things to describe the color pink and she said “pink, pink, and pink”. So maybe not as well with ADD girls. 4/5
2. How difficult is this routine to master? Very simple and short. 5/5
3. Did you get called out using this routine? Not exactly. One girl had heard it once already and since i’ve been using it for so long, i accidentally tried it on a girl i’ve already tried it on. She went along with it though. 3/5
4. What is the hook point strength of this routine? Pretty strong. I wouldn’t open with it probably. But i’ve never had a girl say no to it. 4/5
5. Rapport building strength? Pretty good actually. When i went to this, it was an almost instant connection. It was always a good backup plan. 4/5
6. I don’t have any problems picking up a girl if i want her.
7. Number of times tested? Countless. If i had to put a number on it, 100 times?
8. Any additional insight? Both ways mentioned seemed like they’d work pretty well. Girls always love this kind of stuff. I’d hear “this is fun” or “got any more?” at which point i’d go to the cube.
9. Suggested modifications? I always mention that it will only take a second or two. I tell her to try and go with instinct, don’t think about it too long. And i tell her to try to use creative, descriptive words when describing the question. This prevents the girl from saying “pig” when describing pink, although you could easily run with it if she says something like that. If she really likes the routine, i’ll tell her there’s another one called the cube but it takes longer. Then i’ll make her wait before i run the cube on her.

Hey, I was just about to post more or less the same comment as big S. This is a Carl Jung test that I too read in Diary. I’ve been doing it on people even before I knew about the PUA community. On guys and girls just because it’s interesting and great to get to know people.
It works great every time. One of my favourites.

so, yes i’m a girl & i have used this opener on guys & its been pretty successful
1. Does it work successfully? yes 5/5
2. How difficult is this routine to master? it’s very easy
3. Did you get called out on using this routine? nope 5/5
4. What is the hook point strength of this routine? pretty strong, its worked great for me 5/5.
5. Rapport building strength? strong, 4/5
6. Your PUA-AFC level? generally i’m really shy, so its hard for me to pick up a guy, but with openers like these, it works as an ice breaker and initiates further conversation.
7. Number of times tested? only about 5/6 times as of right now.
8. Any additional insight? it’s a great routine to use, like i said, for a conversation starter & helps you get to know the person.

This routine is really fun, easy and makes a great comfort building filler, mid-set. I’ve probably used it about ten times over the past week, and it’s been well received every time. I haven’t used it as an opener, I guess you could if you wanted to go more direct, but I tend to open with less personal stuff and use this sort of thing after attraction has been established.
Definitely a good tool to add to the box.
Thanks once again, Pick Up Labs!

I think its funny everyone says its good for comfort building not as an opener, its not supposed to be an opener. Good that alot of you guys caught that
