Today is a lesson for those of you that are not familiar with the world of Pick Up Artists.
Today I am going to share an hysterical video that not only makes fun of men in costumes but goes to show that using an alias as a name is ridiculous.
Guys be real be who you are and you will not have to dress in Halloween costumes year round.
Thanks Paul Rudd for entertaining me today and showing all of us, that men need to step up and connect with women without the silly games and antics.
Hope you enjoy this as much as I did.
And if you can come up with a silly nickname i could use……Hmmmm….let me know I am all ears and I can easily go to hollywood and grab some of those cool clothes in the video.
david,david,david, that video was balls to the walls funny, how true that is, PUA suck, as we both know genuine is better.
cheers,
Joe
David
I would make out with you if you met me in a store:)
But not if you wore those clothes.
Nice take on the whole Mystery angle. I would never sleep with a man who dresses like a seductive matador.
I’m still laughing……
Hey David
Long time reader big fan of your stuff!!
Your mastery series taught me never to be something that i was not. I used to be part of an online PUA community and my handle was Tony The Tiger.
I used to dress like Paul Rudd did on the video and one day i saw a few women laughing at me so i went over and tried the Mystery bust them approach and they looked at me and said.
“Get a real identity why are you trying tobe like that guy Mystery”
That woke me up into reality and I found your stuff and now I have my own personal identity and have venver been so successful with women.
Thanks david you changed my life.
So your nickname is.
David The Worlds Best Dating Coach.
David
How about Natural man
You taught me how to be yourself and how to become powerful around women.
Thanks I am still laughing and i am going to pass this blog onto to everyone i know.
I had to chime in, I have been on the sidelines too long.
I can not stop laughing at this. Mystery is a cool guy to hang with, I have seen him in action and he is the real deal.
But that is who he is.
The people that follow him and dress like fools are just lost souls.
David, you are the one guy that i admire for not selling out like the rest of them.
The rest of these guys are just good marketers that really do not understand how to attract women from the inside.
Great Job and i love all of your videos and blogs!!!
I am looking forward to the London bootcamp.
How about the Yenta Man.
Are you even Jewish?
Funny video everyone needs to pass this along.
OMG my abdominal work is again done for the day!!! LMBO
DAVID:
Maybe because I am not out there enough to see, but is this shit real?? I know that was just a bit over the top as far as reality is concerned, but????
I would SO love for one of these walking weenies to comapproach me. I would have my body and eye language going on, and verbally have him so hot his hard C%$# was ripping his pants open, him panting and…..
SEE YA! LOL Hey I am both capable and willing. Act an ass, be left standing there looking like one, with a hard on! LMBO LOL!
David…hmmmm a silly nickname?? How about “Dynamite?” You could wear a costume and the fuse would be placed in the vicinity of your C…. well you get the picture. LOL
LOL!!!
This guy was being “coached” to pick up women by, essentially, putting them down!!
Bria
It is called a neg in the pua world.
They made fun of it in a very clever way.
As you all know I am not a neg fan….I prefer to tease in a more charming way.
Yes they did….
I know I always wanna hop on a guy who tells me my hair is fake…lmao.
DAVID:
No reply on my “Dynamite” name suggestion, so does this mean it is in the consideration stage?? lol
Bertie:
“…I know I always wanna hop on a guy who tells me my hair is fake
yeah, they were clever in exemplifying this. But, the sad truth is…treating women like crap does work with many of them.
Bria
Joan
That was J J name from good time he always would say
Dynamite!!!
Bertie
Your hair is fake it is so fake that it looks like you stole it from a Barbie doll!!
Now if that did not turn you on let me know
I have so many more routines in me:)
David;
Wasn’t his “DynOmite?” AHHHHH whole different meaning…and if it wasn’t, you could use “DynOmite” emphasizing the “Big O!” LOL
How about “Digher” as opposed to Digger? lol
Semen as opposed to Seaman?? Hey you asked for names…LOL LMBO
I better give up while I’m a head! lol
Bria
Yes very true stuff like that will work on women with low self esteem
I would prefer to teach people how to have high self esteem and meet people who are self aware and confident in who they are.
It takes just much work to become confident as it does to memorize routines
Men just think routines are the magic pill but in the end you get exposed for the robot you have become
That is when they leave the dark side and find me.
Wait I think I found my nickname it is…….
Yoda!!!
Sometimes I crack myself up!
Bertie;
Damn girl…if that didn’t turn you on..wad up?? I am over here touching myself just at reading the meaningless words….and singing too…
I’m a Barbie girl, in a Barbie world..la la la la la la la la la la la la la! LOL
OHHHHH mmmmm my Owl is pissed off at something…gotta go see
LMAO
David;
YODA??? LMBO LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
How bout “YODLHER” I crack myself up as well…….hey it is great when you can make yourself laugh…sometimes I am my only hope! LOL
Oh, David, almost forgot….question regarding your upcoming posted schedule. (ONE day for women? What
I agree, women that are “turned on” by bad treatment have issues. And men that need to do that to “get women” have issues.
Both need to leave the “dark side” and see you, Yoda.
May the “force” be with you…
Bria
Well I am sorry but I have to say this.
If I were an Owl, I would find the highest cliff and jump off of it, forgetting to spread my wings! Poor things lead one damn boring life!
What a life…ain’t like they don’t have enough kids squaking about in the little nesting box…pecking has turned into peckher and we will have more kids on the way! I love children, but 5 at a time already? What is she…an animal or something?? LOL
(Hey I promised I wouldn’t say anymore….on the other blog…LOL)
I am off to give a massage to one who makes me need a massage myself afterwards…wahhhhhhhhh!
yoda? david please? how about yogi, and your dick could be called,BOO BOO. that would be quite a surprise.
cheers,
Joe
Bria
Yoda loves to speak at schools and I leave that up to my booker to do that.
Unless you have pull to get me to speak at your school!
I get paid for the night to speak at the colleges usually 3000 plus travel.
I will be doing more training for women this year but right now the men are demanding the workshops more!
Joe:
LMBO “Heeeeey BOO BOO….whats in that pic-in-ic basket?”
“Cum and see!”
LMAO
Joe;
You bring out the best in me…you crack my ass up!!!
Ok, lol client enroute
Bria
Do you want to be princess bria!
We might as well bring back all the star wars names today.
We just need someone big tall and hairy to be chewy.
As for self esteem that is something that takes work and so many people don’t want to take the time.
There are no shortcuts in life.
David –
I am usually happy to be a quiet fan of this blog and just enjoy the comments, but I haven’t laughed this hard in a LONG time . . . so in thanks to you I thought the least I could do was offer a suggestion for your new nickname.
I was thinking that since you are the man who runs these bootcamps, that it would only be fitting for you to have a tough and masculine military-type name . . . So how about “Ranger” or “Seal” or … “Green Beret?!”
David, since we were on a 70’s kick the other night on here playing ABBA videos and reminiscing about fun disco-era stuff …
I can’t help but see you nicknamed Charlie (as in Charlie’s Angels). Ah c’mon, I know you had that poster of Farah Fawcett in the red bathing suit!
David –
Since you seem to have a commanding presence and you help people meet other people — What about having your nickname be Orson like from Mork & Mindy . . .
After all, aren’t you the man who helps all the Morks get their Mindys!
Well David, the nickname I remember most from my teenage years were those from Top Gun. Maybe forget about Goose, but since you’re every bit as cute (and in my opinion cuter) than Tom is — you could be Maverick … or Hollywood. We would just need to see your beach volleyball skills first
This was the funniest video ever! Paul Rudd is fantastic . . . and a better parody of Mystery they could not have done!!!
Thanks David for an awesome mid-afternoon break . . .
This is too funny! Just too funny! LOL
You want us to come up with a silly name you could use? How about… the Water Pick or Mr. Water Pick!
Now wait a second … can we ladies have nicknames too? I always liked Sharon Stone in Basic Instinct – maybe I could be Icepick?
omg……lmao
check this one out guys…
http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/0fff512bf3
Dammit you guys! I had to go be all responsible and such….Conference with Mitch’s teacher. While you all were gallavanting and cavorting! (Pout)
Joan,
I’m average, but I’ve been asked a lot of times if my lips were fake…
David,
Careful….I’ll spontaneously combust….
I want to be FemBot…..cept my babydolls are all red. What fun I could have singing that…When I think about you I touch myself…
I don’t know about Yoda though, he was, kinda green and wrinkly. lol
David –
I would love to be Princess Bria…has a great “ring” to it, I think.
As for speaking at schools….I certainly could check things out here and see what level of interest there is with our student population. We have about 18K when you count all 5 campuses. Want me to check it out for you? I can email you the details on the school and you can see if you want and you can see if its a place you’d wanna come. 3K plus travel doesn’t sound outrageous at all, but that’s just me. LOL. I thought school speaking would be good since you seem to wanting to market your products to teenagers/young adults.
Gotta run, more later.
Bria
Yakub,
Thank you! Kinda puts it all in perspective doesn’t it?
Come on David W, do’nt we get some Medallions, like they gave out on the show? A DW Medallion.
Ooh Yes! We need bling! lol
http://gigglesugar.com/770237
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WoyFP1vOE64
If only my garbage guy would do that…it would make the routine Monday morning blocking of the driveway and making me late for work deal a lot more tolerable! lol
Bria
That would be great if you could look into it.
I am always up for speaking!!!!
Yakub
That video was really funny.
There are quite a lot of videos that make fun of the pick up game stuff.
J Dude
I am going to order you a few medallions.
Forget about my dating products i am just going to sell pick up medallions on my site:)
Oh Bria….I meant Princess Bria
Ana
Love Basic Instict.
I am all about crazy demented women with insane sex appeal
I still think being called Orson is so funny.
Though calling all the men Mork and dressing them in those clothes smells a bit like the video wouldnt you say?
This is very funny check out as mork gets dating lesson from mindy
Gee David, I already have a nickname for you. When I speak of you, I refer to you as Mr. Sassy McSizzlebritches. I don’t know if I could get used to calling you anything else.
david if you ever saw a picture of me, i bet you name me Radar from mash, because i look just like that guy. ask Joan….
cheers,
Joe
Joe
So now I am Yoda or some other weird name that people have come up with.
Radar do i smell another video
Joe;
Hey, Radar is a pretty decent name…you know what I mean??!
Yes you do favor Radar, but with way more confidence and definitely more personality…he was funny, but not in an intelligent way.
Ok Joe…who do I favor? Didn’t you say I looked a lot like Raquel Welch?? lol No, honestly…do I favor anyone…but me?
I want a nickname…so help me out. I think I am th eonly one who doesn’t have one yet.
Looks like somebody forgot to tell this guy that Halloween comes but once a year, on Oct. 31.
Then again, his schtick probably works at least as well as his real persona, so why not?
David-
“So now I am Yoda or some other weird name that people have come up with.”
So what do you think of Flavah Dave? lol
Joe,
Radar is good……
Hmmm….like that old Golden Earring song…..
David –
OK, cool. I’ll check things out here and let you know what I come up with. Now, I like Princess Bria, but does that come off like I’m one of those “high maintenance” chicks? Yikes! So far, I’m liking Yoda best as the nickname. Not b/c it implies that you resemble a short, balding, green, wrinkly, dwarf type non-human creature. But rather b/c it implies that you possess much wisdom in this area. Refering to Yoda says so much in such a small word.
Joan –
Quickly back to the owls….now don’t do anything that will have you come back as one of these owls. Life is hard enough the first go around, don’t want the next one to be a boring one. LOL.
Bria
Holy shit talk about people coming out of the woodwork, where have all these contributors been hiding all this time!
David
Very funny vid, I can’t believe these guys actually get enough business to make it worthwild. You’re so right, I love to tease a girl I like, been doing it since the second grade
And for my mandatory nickname contribution i’ll go with “Shaggy” – seeing as you are the best friend to all us scooby-doos on steroids. Also you already have a Daphne. I could have gone with Johnny Bravo but considering the amount of women that are after you I felt that Shaggy would be more appropriate…
Joan,Joan,Joan,
you firey thing you…..
your nickname is HOT LIPS….
passion that could melt ice… lips the seer the skin, make your mark hot lips
cheers,
Joe
david yoda? really? you’re not a yoda?
just remember david, if she ready grab your light saber
throw in it, and use the force! Just remember to wear clean undwear, we dont want anyone to see your “Darkside” lol
Joan
in light of this, and other comments posted by you regarding god given ample apendages, may I suggest… HOOTER 
You and your owls
hooters! LOL that a good one, melons is good to, but i like hot lips
Cheers,
Joe
Joan, Joan, Joan,
You nickname should be Fire!
Joe:
I am finally connected here! Okkkk woooow!
I’ll take ummmmm HOOT LIPS for 100 Alex! LOL
Bria Dear;
LOL I would guess after I am dead…I won’t give a “hoot!” LOL
sorry joan about the mobile message i must of scred the shit out of you. you are hot lips.
cheers,
Joe
Thats ok Joe…..well we haven’t talked since the last blue moon, and I never sign into that ….AIM is it??
When I saw you called me “Julie” that is when I was thinking who is this??? I don’t get but 4 people IMing me, 3 being my children and the # wasn’t my other IMer, so I wasn’t scared…just baffled
Thank you for the hot lips comment. I have been told this and I am humbly, hot lipped happy!!!!!!
OK Hey Now we are starting a mash theme if you are Radar, and I am Hot Lips hooligan (better than hoolihan..lol)’
Where is my Dr. Donald Penopscott?? (Actually I call my friend..Dr feel good, or Dr feel me up good, or Dr. do me good, or Dr. I want to su…. Ok well anyway……LOL I miss himmmm.
Maybe I will go AWOL and seek him out.LOL
Does anyone here have any real knowledge of the PUA community or is it all just Mystery Method? Well, I do, and there is a whole other side called ‘natural game’ endorsed by the likes of Charisma Arts (Juggler Method), Sebastian Drake (The Approach), and Vin Dicarlo. The reality is David is a PUA. He runs natural game. So he can say don’t be a PUA but I have his Mastery Series and what he teaches on there is the Wygant method of natural game. He is teaching pick up skills without the peacocking and negs that are part of Mystery Method. Not all PUAs are after club girls for ONS and not all use Mystery’s tactics. David, I would enjoy reading a blog post about not being a PUA as is relates to natural game and the use of open ended questions, speaking genuinely and honestly about your own life and perspective on life, teasing, sexual barriers, getting committment (from the girl) in interactions, listening, and any of the other tactics that are so much a part of this side of the community.
Simon,
Keep looking at the blog and the vlogs. Its all right here.
Simon
David teaches that above all else you must have value in yourself. Yes he may have tips on what works with women and what doesn’t, but the driving force (I think) behind his message is to be confident in yourself. This is not a ‘method’ or ‘tactic’. The fact that most people, male or female, are attracted to a person with their own sense of confidence and self esteem is, infact, a bonus.
Its not about methods or games. Its all about enjoying your life, focusing on the positives and the everyday moments. If you want to talk about methods then if anything, David’s ‘methods’ resemble those found in psychology. The rules that EVERY human being plays by by genetic default. Its so simple. If you enjoy your life and your own company, and extend that enjoyment to others without fear of rejection, then you are truly living.
Simon
I have never really thought of myself as part of a pick up community.
Yes I do teach men how to pick up women and women how to pick up men.
But i feel what I teach as you know through my programs is to connect with women on a deeper level.
Yes you can call it natural game but why even call it any kind of game at all.
Why dont we just call it connecting with women in all aspects from the first hello to the time you and she decide that it is time to have sex.
It does not matter what your goal is and at different parts and times in our life we have different goals.
Yes there was a time in my life that i wanted to get laid and that was it and i ran game on women.
I manipulated and seduced them into my bed as fast as i could…..i would use all sorts of seduction techniques that i read about or had someone show me but that part of my life was 20 years ago before all of this stuff was all over the internet.
In the 80s it was trial and a lot of error there were no me’s around or mystery or style or anyone that had a step by step manual on how to run game on women.
You had to figure it out on your own and it was a lot of fun.
Sometimes i was good at it…sometimes i was not.
It all depended on the night and the amount of booze or drugs that were in my system at the time.
I was a player in my 20s and slept with a lot of women.
But i learned a very valuable lesson that i wish i knew back then.
If i just took the time to work on myself and learn the power of connecting with woman instead of playing them i would have had a far more satisfying adventure.
Now do not get me wrong i would not go back and do anything over….i had a blast being 23 and chasing women.
What really gets me in this whole community are the nicknames.
I find them very juvenile always have.
I refuse to call my nicknamed competition by their stage name….i know a lot of them and when i see them i will use there real name.
This is why i posted the video today….i found it funny and enjoyed how Paul Rudd poked at the whole pickup thing.
Being a natural and teaching natural game does not mean that i am not picking up women…i am just teaching guys how to build lifetime skills.
i love women…I enjoy everything about them..
I also respect women, this is not a game to me this is about getting deeper with myself and the people i connect with.
I also have been coaching for 10 years….not just selling products that make me money.
I love what i do and if you ever attend one of my bootcamps or book some phone coaching with me you will see the passion that i have for making men understand how to be powerful men.
Thats all for now………I am tired and need to get up early.
I am launching a new coaching program next week and i have 3 new products that are about to be put up on the site so look at for them.
One simon you will love.
It is called 25 of my best openers and how to make them work for you…each one is broken down so you can make it your own.
I will teach you how to deliver each one using your own words…..
This is what i am trying to get people to understand.
The power is all inside you…my job is to get you to open your eyes and mind and let it all out.
trust yourself and if you really want to get deeper into this email me and set up a coaching call.
it will be the best hour that you can invest in yourself.
Simon

Simon
Read this one…..a far better way to tease and get her attention.
http://blog.davidwygant.com/pull-her-pigtails/
And there is one more Simon for you to read.
I just cant find the page that iposted this blog on….so i cut and pasted it right here for you.
Sam
Another great post today……..the comments keep getting deeper and deeper.
Thanks for your posts today.
Thanks David. I was actually just thinking ‘jeez I ramble on a bit’, I know I get a bit carried away sometimes, but good to know it makes sense to somebody other than me!
Sam,
what I am saying is this, and this is a difficult concept for me to convey at 6 in the morning from Maryland, since I am just waking up, but I will do my best. What I am saying is that no one comes into life with any personality traits or socially learned means of communicating to anyone, whether of the opposite gender or not. They are all learned. My basic premise, therefore, is going to be that all life is a method or tactic. I know those words sound potentially bad, but hear me out. Lets say you are a man who sees a woman in a bookstore who is reading, Foreign Policy Digest, your favorite magazine, and you would like to talk to her, what do you do? Before you answer, suppose you had never learned that you could approach a total stranger in a bookstore and talk to them. Your mother never told you this, your father never did, your 6th cousin 7 times removed from Senegal never did. Nor did your super successful with the ladies best friend ever tell you. You want to engage her in a conversation, but you need a way to do it. Well from a purely analytical point of view, what do we need here. We need tactics, which if you look up the definition, are simply means of accomplishing a task successfully. So we call up David Wygant and tell him about the situation. He and he gives you the tactic, which is to walk up to her, notice that she is reading your favorite magazine, and make a comment to her about it to open the conversation.
And it is my take that this is all of what life is, at its fundamental core. We have something we need to accomplish, so we learn a proper means to do it. Even saying “I love you” is just a way to express our emotion and convey to another person how much you care about them. Think about it, you don’t tell them, they smell funny, or have poor posture. You learned this particular means, long ago, for properly expressing this one very deep feeling. It is a tactic. It is not manipulative, it is real, it is genuine, but it is a learned way to accomplish something you otherwise would not know how to do.
And too, being confident and all the things you mentioned in your post are tactics, we just prefer to call them other things, like exuding confidence and living life without fear of rejection.
David,
I have never thought of you as part of the pickup community either, even though you have Heartwork, who is a PUA working for Vin Dicarlo and SargeNation, which is a pick up community website on your blog roll, and have appeared on David DeAngelo and Pickup Podcast products.
I simply call it ‘game’ because I have not been clever enough to think of a better word.
I really enjoy your Mastery Series and the blog, I just wonder is a post like this doesn’t have underlying it, just a bit of the marketing of differentiation to try to avoid being lumped into the seduction community, since that community is not looked at so favorable by the mainstream? It would be fine if it was, as while I am aware of the community, I don’t consider myself a part, even though I do do some stuff in it.
So I have read your linked blogs and the one you attached and I am unsure what you where trying to get me to see. I just see natural game from your perspective, which is completely congruent with the style of the schools I mentioned in my first post. This is great. The purpose seems to be to communicate and have fun with woman we meet just as those schools would have us do and to create social proof, as those schools would have us do as well. Is there something I am missing?
Oh, I agree and respect your decision not to use a nickname. Whenever I have spoken to a person about Charisma Arts, I alway call the guy who started it Wayne Elise, not his nickname, Juggler.
Simon
Regarding your response, I totally agree! However, the difference in our viewpoints is this; In order to learn these tactics as you call them, (which in reality are just plain old social skills), and achieve success in your social life, a person must feel good within themselves and have sufficient self esteem to make it all work. Not all people are instilled with self esteem and self assurance from childhood. Not all people have had easy lives where their sense of self worth has remained unscathed. Many people for one reason or another find social interaction very difficult to grasp. Now your typical PUA is going to feed you all manner of tricks and angles to get around these difficuties – TEMPORARILY. Yes you may fool the girl into thinking you’re a legend bcos you put some pre-conceived deceptive tactic on her, but what then? Eventually she will discover the real person beneath the act, at which point it may be game over. Its a band-aid solution.
David’s ‘tactics’ as I see them, (and I’m not his spokesperson or anything, I’m just voicing my opinion here) are designed to assist the people who for one reason or another find conveying THEIR OWN thoughts and personal traits to other people very hard to do. Like drawing it out with a sponge. Its already there, but the social phobias and often just lack of knowledge about how to go about it, hold the person back. I see it as like the spark that ignites the fuel that has been lurking within.
Let me tell you from years of experience dealing with my own fluctuating levels of confidence and self esteem, these things are NOT “tactics or any other thing you care to call them.” These things go right to the core of your existence, and when you have no confidence in yourself, you essentially have nothing.
Forget picking up chicks and being the life of the party for a moment. Confidence and a belief in yourself affects everything you do, be it career, social life and personal life. I think you are on the right track in your post about learning the skills to approach people and start conversation, no one denies these things must be learned. But its the bit before that, before you even approach another person, when you’re comfortable within yourself that needs to be addressed first.
Sam
That is great advice for Simon.
Simon you need to dial it back and gain that confidence.
The mind is a very powerful thing and right now you are thinking too much and not just reacting to what is going on.
The magazine woman is exactly what i am talking about.
If that is your favorite magazine you should have plenty to talk about with her. You need to start talking and stop thinking so much.
Anything interesting in the magazine.
You could have said that and if you said it with a smile and confidence the conversation would start rolling.
Its all the way you say things….with your voice tone and everything.
I cant begin to tell you that you need to look into some private coaching.
One hour with me on the phone will really help you out.
I also record all the coaching calls so you will be able to listen to what we discuss over and over till you can understand how simple i will make this for you.
As why i posted that video…..I want people to understand the powerful difference between being real and being a show.
Writing this blog is a passion for me and putting out great products and coaching as well.
I am glad you are here.
Sam,
You convinced me …. not that I needed to be convinced
I echo David when I say, well written post.
Additionally, a well-spoken, self-aware man is HOT! You’re sizzlin’, Baby! Mmmmm …. yummy.
David and Sam,
I am going to digress rather than continue, because I am not sure at this point if the fact that your response don’t seem to be specifically related to the EXACT words I wrote, is a result or your not reading closely enough or my not writing clearly enough. Either way I agree with what you both say for the most part, so we really have no difference worth disputing
I agree that you should use your real name when approaching women but I disagree with this when it comes to interacting on the internet. There are millions of Sam’s in this world and if you want to differentiate yourself from them for a message board username or for leaving comments you would have to include your last name. This is a bad move in this day of age of Google.
Ten years ago I made a fan site for a cheesy movie and I included my real name on the site somewhere. I had a job interview and had the potential employer ask me about the site.
I call myself “Mack Tight”. Maybe it is a silly nickname. I am not trying to be “phony” or be arrogant. I am simply protecting my identity using a fun and unique alias just as Mystery did. Many of the pickup gurus who have names that sound real are actually using alias too. If I was making enough money that I could be self-employed I wouldn’t be concerned about using my real name but that is not the case at this time.
Theresa
Thankyou for your kind, oh wait, HOT comments! If I were a girl I’d probably blush ;P
David – One hour on the phone with you would help, eh?
