Okay i tried this out yesterday and i got a really good response. I was on the subway platform and im walking towards a girl as i get closer i see that shes like a hb7.5-8 and i stop walking like 15 feet from her. I swear at that point she flipped her hair like 5 times in a row! Im like "was that an IOI cause holy shit i just got like 5 in a row!" So as the train comes and stops we both head for the same door and i slow down and say "ladies first and smile" she goes in and then i say " I wanna ask you a question".
Her: Umm, sure.
Me: Okay this girl asked me this yesterday and when i got it wrong she said i was the only person to ever get the wrong answer. I told her that i didnt believe, but she was stubborn. Anyways i just wanna make sure im not the only one. Okay you ready: how many times does the number 9 show up between 1 and 100.
Her: gigiling, okay.....'counting'...10
Me: YES! im not the only one, welcome to the club.
Her: What?! how many are there.
Me: there are actually 20. Now i grab both her hands and count with her fingers "9,19,29.....99 has 2"
her: ohhhh thats cool!
after that you can go into anything you want you already attracted her, touched her hands and she thought the trick was cool. You can ask her if she has anything interesting to say or show....
K i dont know if Im counting wrong or anything but doesnt every number appear 20 times between 1-100, except 1 which appears 21 times because of the 100...
ex: 5, 15, 25, 35, 45, 65, 75, 85, 95, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59
thats 19 numbers + the extra 5 in 55 = 20
should be like that for every number...so if the HB is smart, and realizes that...it pretty much ruins the whole game...although I should say that I think its a great opener, but the game is flawed
