PSA - How to use cocky and funny at the right time.

I was reading David DeAngelo's newsletter last night and saw something very funny that I thought I had to share with you guys.

**QUESTION***

Dave, I've recently been trying the C&F routine in online ads. I told one chick that using her drivers license pic in her ad was a nice touch. She replied back saying "it's
a**holes like you that have made me decide to pull my ad"
and she did pull it, I checked.

Another chick, I told her she looked like she worked for psychic hotline cuz she
kinda looked like a fortune-teller. She IM'd me and asked me what I meant and I explained it to her, then busted on her for stalking me because she found me so irresistible. She replied "you shouldn't brag. It's unbecoming" and she
ended the conversation shortly thereafter.

My question is, am I hitting on any taboos with this C&F or were these just
uptight women? When you say be funny do you mean what I think is funny or what we both will find funny because it seems to me the funniest things are usually at someone's
expense who doesn't find it so funny!

>>Dave's COMMENTS:

LOL...!

"...using your driver's license pic in her ad was a nice
touch..."?

"...you look like you work for the psychic hotline..."?

LOL!

And then you ask me "When you say be funny do you mean what I think is funny or what both will find funny..."?!

You're killing me over here. Stop it!

Yea, try leaning a little more toward jokes that SHE will also find funny. Good idea.

I think you've invented a new technique.

I'm going to name it "Cocky And Dumb Ass".

You know, the REALLY funny part is that these two things you've said would be GREAT to use in slightly different contexts...

For instance, if you're online chatting with a woman, and you're having fun teasing her... and she's into you... and she sends you some modeling picture of herself... THAT'S the place to say "What's with the driver's license pic?"

Or "You look like that girl in the Psychic Hotline commercials. Are you famous? I always wanted to date a famous fake psychic girl that makes $100 a day for extra work in Psychic Hotline commercials."

lol...

You don't need to try so hard right from the beginning.
 
Yeah man... Just be yourself, or at least a slightly funnier and more outgoing version of yourself anyway. I could never pull off half of the lines that guy suggests in his newsletters, because they're way too out of character for me. Women can tell when you're putting on an act, and it's not a turn on for them.
 
It also depends on who you are. Some guys just can't pull it off, like me for instance. I am more of a witty/charming kind of guy vs. cocky.
