The Extra-Long Straw Game
I recently tried The Extra-Long Straw Game for the first time, so I wanted to post up a thread with my experience.
The concept is based off of a Heartiste post: http://heartiste.wordpress.com/2013/02/19/straw-game/
The Game: You take a long straw (3 normal straws inserted into one another), and as you wander around a bar/club/house party, you drink out of a girls drink from a short distance.
That is your opener.
I opened a lot of girls using this method, so I was more in experimental mode than anything. I tried different variations of the approach: in one instance, my friend would walk up to the girl and open her in a normal way to ensure her distraction. Then I would approach from the other side (out of her sight) and start drinking her drink. The girl would turn toward me, and my friend would bail, since I now had her full attention.
Often I would just stick my straw into a girls drink on my own, without a wingman, and let things play out from there.
Results: Mixed, but hilarious. Some girls FREAKED the fuck out on me. But many laughed and had huge smiles on their face, and many were so thrown off they had no clue what to do. Almost all of the girls feigned anger and grabbed my straw right away to take it apart, throw it on the ground, or just hold it away from me; so I learned to keep extra straws in my pocket.
Regardless, and for better or worse, 100% of the girls I tried this on turned to face me and engage me. So in my eyes, it is the most successful opener I’ve tried. I have never made so many hamsters spin in so short a time.
Pros:

Pros:
- Starts an incredibly playful/mischievous interaction right off the bat.
- Approach anxiety was non-existent, since I didn’t have to say anything to the girl. In fact, she was the first to talk in most of the encounters.
- Girls that rejected me looked like uptight bores, since I was clearly a fun, cool guy that doesn't stress about trying to impress a girl. This caused my confidence to skyrocket to never before seen heights. It created enormous momentum for me.
- Ability to open/approach any girl, regardless of their configuration. Girls that were sitting down were almost easier to approach with this method, as were girls in groups, etc. It allowed me to open girls that would normally be very difficult to approach.
- Can be used to flirt with girls already in your social circle.
- Difficult to maintain attention/transition after high-energy opener, especially later into the night when girls were drunk.
- The girls that freaked out, freaked out hard. One girl pushed me, one started drunk shouting, another threw her drink in my face. Good thing I was laughing too hard to care.
- All the girls wanted to “figure me out” after the approach, and I eventually realized some were not attracted to me, and if I had used a vocal opener on her, she would have quickly rejected me. Corollary: my game needs further development.
- This approach attracts a lot of attention; not always a good thing. We burned through bars quickly.
- Requires higher than average energy level.
- The more crowded the venue, the better. If you get blown out, you’ll want to move on quickly.
- The hotter the girl, the better this worked. Merely “cute” girls knew I was using them as an experiment, and that I normally wouldn’t have approached them. This seemed to upset them.
