| It's true guys.
Canned material is heading six feet under, and VH1 sealed it's fate.
You will be caught with "You got that from Pick up artist, didn't you?". It's gonna happen.
College kids, It's gonna happen.
High School kids, It's gonna happen...eventually. lol.
But seriously, canned openers are dead.
A good majority of newcomers and even our own experienced have run into a cloud of smog on the subject. People are lost. They cant think of anything original.
...I will try to clear that fog right here.
Canned vs. Imprompt
Let us define the words
A)Canned (Adj.) A slang term used to describe something premade,or unoriginal
B)Impromptu (n) Off the top of one's head, spontaneous, situational
EVERYONE, by now, knows about "George being fought over 2 girls" or "Who lies more?"
...no good. Those are dead.
No talk about little kids, no nothing.
Well, those specific lines might be dead, but the ESSENCE behind lives on.
The ESSENCE...is what gives us the fuel to go impromptu.
Instead of saying "I'm thinking about throwing a party, but I cant decide between an 80s theme or a Jungle theme(Dont use that), think "Why does it work, and how can I reword it"?
Find the bigger picture behind the lines. Once you find the bigger picture, you'll find at least 30 more impromptu openers off the top of your head, and, stay with me...1000 more AT THE SITUATION ITSELF!!!
You can comment on the dominant color of the place your in, the energy of the people, the driver who did a u-turn 2 driveways before and almost killed 3 people, including yourself, etc...
Limitless opportunity.
If you're at a frat party, comment on greek life itself. Get your targets talking about what they expected. Talk about a situation you had that sounds like something straight out of Animal House.
If you're in HS,I'll only say this once...OPENERS ARE EXTREMELY,PATHETICALLY EASY!!! Use any gossip going on. There's at least 20 new stories a week, and you cant fail on it. (Of course, bad news is your success is solely determined on rep).
Impromptu. Get to know it. Practice.
That...is the future of opening. With impromptu, it will be DAMN near impossible to get caught with VH1, unless the girl is super smart and a wiseass, in which, reverse it on her. _________________ BRENT AKA "HOLLYWOOD"
