The Science Channel is Hardcore Rock in my Ass’ness- AWESOME FINDING

Well, I just happened to be watching the science channel the other day and came across a program dealing with social interactions and psychology. The program itself was very interesting, so I continued to watch it for the duration of the hour. It wasn’t until halfway through did it offer a very useful piece of advice. This advice I found (although I have yet to test it) can have major implications in the field. So what was the finding you ask? Here goes: Researchers took two individuals (similar looking middle aged males) and placed them in separate rooms. They then took a sample of random individuals (men and women; one on one interactions) and had them carry on a conversation with these two individuals. However, they asked that one individual act “mean” while the other act “friendly”. Now here’s the really interesting part… While these two men were interacting with various individuals they asked them to make various physical motions such as brushing their hair with their hands, leaning back in their chair, and even changing the position of their legs. In so doing, the researchers found that the individuals would actually copy the movements of the friendly guy while not copying the movements of the unfriendly guy.

So… What does this mean for us fellow sargers??? Well, there are two ways you can use this information to benefit you in the field. 1) It will help you tell if the chick you are talking to likes you. This is basically an IOI that no one talks about. 2) If you find that she is copying your movements, then you could somehow get her to copy your movements into kino escalation with one another. I’m not yet sure if this would even work or how to go about doing it however, the information posed above is intriguing. So who wants to put it to the test? I would like to hear how it goes->
