trying my memory routine out:

First field test:
Quote:
First girl I tried it on, an HB8 told me how she had an older brother So she picked up the skill young. She remembered the first time she dropped an f bomb. I'd didn't read any into her word choice.
I could've dug deeper and gotten the full story but it was mid class. ...
Since then though she has been cussing up a storm. As well as showing off texts where she's stringing several cuss words together.
"titty-shit-fuck-balls it's cold out here"[x4 overkill!]
Second Test:
I tried it at a dubstep concert. I waited too long psyched myself out then it came off as canned. I didn't really pay attention to the conversation. She said she was 22 when she first swore. And her 2 year old was already swearing. I left cause I wasn't that into it. My buddy, who talked like he wanted to wing, stood silently somewhat within the circle. which also threw me off. Her friend who was actually the target had approached me earlier for drugs. I mistook that for interest in the first place.
And I'm running out of things to complain about.
Third test
She's a 7. Who started at 11. It was when her dog died... =^/ I guess cussing is associated with stress or pain pretty often. oops. I probably should have waited to mention my cousin until after she brought up her memory. I said my cousin was 11. Thatt got a bigger smile than saying she was 14 did.
I'm experimenting with saying my cousin is different ages. How young would be too young for ability to spell? when are they giving kids phone's these days?
[it's not lying it's exaggeration]

Seems promising. I'm going to continue working with it. It's my first weekend. I also tried it a few times on facebook with good results. No online in this forum though, right?
Today's the first day back to class for the week, so let's see where this takes me.
What's the best way to update this thing? Should I comment? edit? should this be commented on my original topic?
New name also. Old one had too many associations.
