Out with the SLA crew last night celebrating the completion of Neil’s new book and testing of the Lint Opener came up. Neil shared some private details that may help this opener, maybe he will share below.
Before I get to the results here is Part 2 of the interview with Brian and Greg with perhaps one of the funniest FRs I have ever heard!
So for everyone asking how the guys from the show are doing now that it is over, it sounds like they are doing pretty fucking well!
Now back to the Lint Opener. Testing of this opener/routine was BRUTAL! With feedback such as
“2. Does the single grab open successfully?
If by “open”, you mean “get a look of disgust immediately before the target walks away”, then yes. Otherwise, no.” which not only still makes me laugh out loud as I type this, but also proves a great point. Even if you go out and have a “bad” night, the absolute worst thing you get is a great story. Thanks VikingWarlord
Grading:
Hook point strength 1 out of 5
Rapport building strength 1 out of 5
Experience level needed to perform 1 out 5
Busted level 0 out of 5
So this unfortunately does not get the Pick Up Labs Stamp of Approval. While it did open for a few people, the majority were treated like dirty homeless people. It did help prove a few important points though, first that even though this was in a MAJOR TV show that is seen all over the world, NOBODY was busted on this. Even if I do get called out whenever I am in field I just admit it, “ya you got me, I was hitting on you, is..there.. a problem with that?”
Second, just because this was written about in The Game, it doesn’t get any special treatment here in Pick Up Labs.
Third, going out with a plan and a mission gives you a goal to work towards. If we don’t have a goal or destination we are wandering around aimlessly.
So to thank everyone for making Pick Up Labs so fucking cool, I will be doing something special for you guys on Christmas. Then the following week we are going to test an opener I have been waiting to sink my teeth into, just in time for New Years, so make sure to check back soon!
