Great idea for a thread!
I've got a good one. When I was in Tokyo, I was chatting up a non-Japanese girl at a club, and she asked me:
"So why are you in Japan? To find a girl?"
How would you respond to this?
[/quote
"I look for girls wherever I am."
"Yeah, sure am. Girls from (insert non-japanese girl's nationality) are boring. I want something new/different/exciting."

If Ranger Up has taught me anything, she's exactly right. Good things don't come to those who wait; good things come to those who work their asses off.
Of course, you could always go with a lighthearted "Define work..." with a devious grin.

Me: Were you born here or are you an import
Asian girl on tinder: Is that a serious question?
That pissed me off: No its a stand up act
Obviously she got to me, but how would you handle it?

Fader,
Her: "So why are you in Japan? To find a girl?"
Me: "Yes. My sister went missing 3 weeks ago in Aokigahara."

I don't understand - why did that piss you off? Presumably you are deliberately saying something potentially provocative to incite a shit test. So if you use that type of game, you better be prepared for that inevitable shit test that's coming your way a lot of the time.
The responses I usually get are playful, not bitchy. You make a good point, duly noted. I'm still learning, and had no idea of how to respond to this.

Combine with a wink and you're golden. More often than not you'll get her laughing and will have calmed the mood so you're in back in control of the conversation again. The worst thing you can do is get butthurt since you're ceding control of the interaction back to her by default; getting pissed is implicitly telling her you can't handle being teased.
You have to A&A here in a matter that fits your personality and situation, though. That's just what I would say above.
For dumbass texts (from women) my go-to is either A&A or Amused Mastery depending on the nature of what they sent. Either way, the hamster is trying to break through the damn cage each time. Lots of what I use comes from Heartiste too so that's always a good resource to check for when you're stuck.
Hawk, what is that amused mastery you speak of?

Here's a shit test from a first date with a chick after a bar meet:
Her: "there were a lot of girls at that bar, why me?" (Shit test mother fucker! Can you pass it!?)
Me:"I already fucked all those girls" smirk
Her: sexy smile
So fun

Not to downplay any of the shit-test-handling advice in this thread, I think the witty/bold/indirect response is usually gold, but if you're a good-looking guy, and/or you've already established a decent frame, you don't have to sweat these shit tests so much.
I tend to ignore most shit tests and just tell the truth, more or less.
For example, in this old shit test from 3 years ago:
(okcupid chat at Friday 6-7pm)
Her: Where are you right now?
Me: At my house.
Her: So, what are you doing at home on a Friday evening?
Me: Chilling with my roommate, watching Shaun of the Dead.
Her: Kill the Queen!!!

Smashed my reg last night, went to dinner, came back laid in bed. We were just talking about stuff we could do during sex somehow the question came up with her:
"What would you do if I didn't want have sex?"
I laughed and said, "I'd kick you to the curb, because I'd know something was wrong or something was up, if you aren't fucking me, well then you're fucking someone else, I don't care either way"
she went quiet and said "what, really?" to which I say with a smirk, "of course, besides we can't keep our hands off each other anyways"
I end up fucking the shit out of her again 15 minutes later.
It's better to be bold with a smile than to be weak and worried. Safe to say I'm pretty sure I passed that shit test.

Girl: "Are you a player?"
Me (in rapping tone while smirking) "I'm not a playa i just fuck a lot!"

Hold eye contact, maintain eye contact, and ask, dead-pan, "Do you like me?"
^ If delivered with a good sense of timing the above can knock back even the most sarcastic snark-machines. If you're decent (enough) looking the above retort carries a lot of value... especially in a group setting.

Shit tests like, 'so, do you say that to all the girls?' dont seem that difficult to pass. When the test seem like an insult I start having problems.
Shit like 'you are old and broke'
'are you literate?'
'leave me alone'
These are insults and afterwards the girl would act all nice. How do deal with that? I would rather go haome and jack off!
Don't debate me.

Verbal shittests are easy. it's just important to recognise whether it's value shittest or comfort shittest. there's a difference. then respond accordingly.
the worst shittests are passive non verbal ones. for example..
- you are with a girl at your place it looks "on" but she sits on chair instead next to you
- your conversation with a girl got interrupted and she ignores you like there she didn't even talk to you before.
- a girl who clearly likes you and would leave with you but doesn't give you any signals, she just sticks to you and follows your lead without saying anything
- a girl who doesn't respond to your texts or calls to see if you freak out or become needy
- a girl who plays hard to get by being cold to you or trying to ignore you when you break the ice with her but when you stay cool and persist and her firewall disappears
shit like this is pain in the ass. sometimes it's tough to correctly assess what's up. oh well i guess it's just girls being girls.

Text exchange:
"Place x is closed at 7. Changing to place Y at 8."
"Umm....rain check?"
"It aint raining outside and I'm more of a cash kind of man"
"haha smartass"
"Just one of my many talents, don't be late."
Place Y is right downstairs from my apartment and I knew place X was closed at 7 when I first planned it, funny how that works huh.
Now I just sit in my place and do work. If she actually goes there, she'll text me and I'll say im running late then walk downstairs (which later on the date will come out that I live right upstairs, at which point she will realize I wasn't running late and just wasn't going to show, which is going to make her more attracted to me). If she doesn't, I don't invest any time in getting flaked on.
Gonna book a second girl for a different bar, again right downstairs. That's how you leverage double booking and killer logistics to minimize your effort and maximize your return. If one girl shows and the other doesnt, it's all good. If both girls show, I cancel on one and she's none the wiser. If neither show, I'm still in my apartment doing work.
God'll prolly have me on some real strict shit
