Default Re: great myspace.com opener

I agree with Scotty. We saw the notes that our fake chick accounts are getting. They're getting bombarded by compliments - especially eyes. Hell, crack open any hot chick's profile and look at the comments on her photos. You'll have at least 20 comments from driveling wannabe playas complimenting her eyes.

I think Scotty's "Do you always dress that way?" opener is brilliant, actually. The beauty of it is how ambiguous it is, especially when typed out. She doesn't know whether it's a compliment or an insult. This gets her (a) wanting to find out which it is, and (b) wanting to prove herself to you that she's a hottie. That's HUGE. vnh, Scotty. I'll definitely be trying this out as a default opener if I can't find something witty to say that's inspired by the girl's profile.

Lastly, I disagree that calling girls crazy is bad. I haven't toyed with it much on myspace, but I've had tremendous results with it in person. Crazy, like Scotty's opener, is beautiful in its ambiguity. The girl is left wondering if we're calling her a raving lunatic who we want to get away from, or if we're saying that she's wild, free, and fun. These sorts of ambiguous comments are powerful weapons. By being a cut and a compliment at the same time, they accomplish much more than one of each.
