fourhourworkweek.com — Sometimes you need to make friends and influence people. Other times, you should just test drive them and push their buttons.The art of irritation can, in fact, be just as valuable as the art of persuasion.

Me likey likey this post. I think it's hilarious. I don't care if anyone thinks its wrong to eff with someone (if that's what they want to call it) It serves my own selfish entertaining and efficiency needs... I think I (along with every other preschooler) mastered this art at age 4 ( I just never gave it up). Life is comedy. Always. Smile.

I used a similar technique for potential mates but it never occurred to me to use it on friends! And all too often I've been entangled with someone that instinctively I knew from first impression was not quite right, but then got suckered in anyway! So I've been working on listening to my instincts. As an ENTP (Meyers-Briggs) I have to see it to believe it, so I think you've now given me the exact tool I need to screen new friends and potential associates, where I can have concrete proof early! As always, entertaining, enlightening, and totally useful! How do I get on your social list so I can go to the fun eye gazing parties, and other off beat adventures you seem to find in San Francisco? :)
