Everyone (including myself) will ask this question upon reading The Game: Is it true? If it is true, then God help this world.

Everyone (including myself) will ask this question upon reading The Game: Is it true? If it is true, then God help this world.
The tactics used by the PUAs (pickup artists) described in the book are quite traditional and I doubt whether any sane woman will fall for that. Do these PUAs have nothing else better to do than chasing and bedding women?
For a monologue describing the sexual adventrues of a guy, this book is far too long. But if you want something racy and funny for your leisure reading, skim it, and you may like it.
I do find it quite entertaining though.

It's a very entertaining book. I had so much fun because Style's pickup adventures are so hilarious. I don't think there are a lot of PUA in Hong Kong, not even in LKF. Most guys I know are AFC, and I do know one AMOG, my man. Luckily, he doesn't read, so he won't touch my book. Hahaha!

Bet there'll be people try to mimic what Style has done in the book, apply it in LKF maybe? So girls, be prepare and start read the book!!!
I admit, Style is sweet..
"Most people have this idea that love is supposed to last forever. But love isn't like that. It's a free-flowing energy that comes and goes when it pleases. Sometimes it stays for life; other times it stays for a second, a day, a month, or a year. So don't fear love when it comes simply because it makes you vulnerable. But don't be surprised when it leaves, either. Just be glad you had the opportunity to experience it. "

Very funny and easy to read.

Men: give it a try, I might not hurt (too much).
Women: beware from men who dress in an extremely flashy way.

If you are in a bar and approached by a man wears cocky props speaking with irrelevent operers, he is the Pickup Artist. You will know tricks of how to respond and get laid with a girl in this book. But you will never win girls' love and respect other than that. And this kind of living makes those PUAs in mad as they found out they are nothing but just sex-machines. The glamour faded away as the PUAs repeat their nights everyday hanging in pubs, bars and parties. The holes within cannot only fill with seuxal desire, but with something more concrete, and more humane.

Cool

That was a very entertaining read. I really want to believe all of this has actually happened.
As for the 'tactics' used by the pickup artists, even though some people seem to believe otherwise, I have no doubt that they work. In fact, I've seen much worse things work in clubs.
