The globalist warehouse of planned obsolescence consumerism, Amazon, uses the same Takeaway Game that Trump and PUAs use to seduce their respective objects of love. Reader Mutant Seven notices the relevant algorithm,
I was howling over today’s post, “Trump’s Takeaway Game.” The takeaway close is a brilliant maneuver and I fall for it every time – even though I know about it! I keep a bunch of shit in my Amazon “save for later” queue, just to monitor the price fluctuations. These are things I want but don’t at all need. (A lot of people must do this, and the Amazon AI overlords must cackle in fiendish glee every time we take the bait.) Let’s say there’s an item in my queue for $10, for example a new pair of handlebar gel grips. I see it at $10 day after day but all I do is stare at it. Then it starts to move. It goes up to $11.29. The next day $13.01. The day after that $14.75. Now I’m legitimately pissed. Shit, fuck, goddamn! I could have had those at $10. Now they’re way out of price. No way! Then a few days later it drops to $9.99. Man, I jump on that baby like it was a magna cum laude grad at Beverly Hills Cosmetology Tech. Bam, it’s mine now! Hahaha!!
Oh wait, I still didn’t really need it.
Works every time.
You can call it a brain hack. I prefer to call it a pussy pry, given that my amazingly prime (heh) consumer base is lithe ladies.
All goal-oriented language has an element of seduction, and Game denialists who support Trump should know they are as much in thrall to their happy manipulation as any “BPD damaged bar slut”. (self-refuting sneer quotes added for effect).
I wonder if something similar to Takeaway Game can be redirected to utterly discredit and socially isolate Jeff Bezos’ anti-Trump rag, the Washington Post-Op? Flood the gynecomasperger social media hives with broken links to “this great Wapo article DEMOLISHING Trump”, wait for unfulfilled ego validation to build, and then “fix” link to point to whatever mildly anti-Hillary article you can dig up on Wapo. A little bait-n-switch mixed with heightened anticipation and higher buying temperature could yield a lot of snapped shitlimbic systems.

She quoted Jane Austen by heart and referred to a letter that she had written to her father when she was nine years old insisting, “What I really want out of life is to discover something new, something that mankind didn’t know was possible to do.” And it was this instinct, she said, coupled with a childhood fear of needles, that led her to come up with her revolutionary company.

Heartiste, I count FIVE neologisms in your post. Although “amazingly prime” was super ass fucking obscure. You have to get the Amazon Prime ref to get that one. Still, kudos.
In response, let me say that the takeaway also works in reverse. You can start low, low, low, keep going lower — and then jack up your value in your image and surprise the shit out of a girl so that she reevaluates you.
For example, once I was on a university campus (McMaster, in Hamilton) trying to look inconspicuous. A girl, who I later balled, noticed me and said in front of my sister and I that I looked “low in self-esteem.” That image-defect came because I had forgotten how to blend in anonymously. Too much assertiveness can defeat you when you want to be a bland drone.
Anyway, later on, I reverted to my usual domineering stance and she was amazed and impressed. “Wow!” she said to me, touching my arm around the bicep, but slightly to one side. “You look way different! I hardly recognize you!” I asked her to go for a drink and we hit it off. The next night, she was a notch.
So the lesson is, the takeaway can ride you up and down the snake ladder of the game of Game.
P.S. Heartiste I’ve been spamming your site with ads for my website, qedbook.wordpress.com. That will mostly stop in the future, okay? As I wrote before, I assume we’re going to be close, close friends, in real life, and I’m leaning on you as you would lean on me. Much apologies, my Good Lord. *Nikolic out*

Re: Scrivener, CreateSpace, Kindle, etc.
I’ve used Scrivener and liked it, especially the auto-save feature. Haven’t used CreateSpace but what I’ve heard is good. As for Kindle, I don’t much care for paying Bezos 30%. I always figured that with Kindle you’re just paying for Amazon’s reach, and you already have visibility.
All these platforms take some cut. If you’re reasonably tech-savvy you can get a WordPress or other content management system plug-in to handle shopping cart and payment processing, and that should get the cut down to a few percentage points (which is the payment processor’s take) instead of double digits. Depends on whether you prefer less hassle or maximizing profit. Feel free to ping me about this stuff.

Women feel entitled like royalty and have no concept of what resources are used to bring them the comfortable life they enjoy.
Every woman I know returns stuff pretty much every week, they do not seem to be aware how wasteful that is.
tens of millions of women returning merchandise means millions of employees wasting millions of hours on that, wasting time on repacking the items, putting it back on shelves etc etc, it costs money and makes the price of goods go up.
Women are disconnected from how things work, where they come from, all the labour and resources behind it.
not to mention tens of millions of women driving back to the store means a lot of fuel is burned for the stupidest reason.
Like a princess or queen who keeps rejecting the dresses her lowly servants keep bringing her, women feel they are entitled to being treated like princesses/queens by the store employees…which is exactly what it is.
Why can’t women chose the right item that fits well and that they will not have to return? is that too hard for their little brain?
or do women crave that feeling of having lowly servants as if she was the princess/queen so much they can not help it?
I have dated a lot of women and it is astonishing how they are wasteful as if electricity was free or as if money grew on trees…they just do what feels good to them.
Often they wash one item at a time in the washer then one item at a time in the dryer??!!
They have no understanding of how anything works and where things come from and how energy is consumed, the cost of that.
to them everything just happens
If we are guilty of consuming too much resources and of hurting the planet, I am certain women ( in developed nations ) are responsible for at least 80% of that.

I don’t pay much attention to such obvious tricks – when an item like bike grips changes price that often and rapidly, you KNOW it has to be some sort of scam – and use Amazon to buy things I really do need or want and cannot find locally or would be much more expensive locally.
Mostly used books from third party shops, the odd DVD or CD.
Regarding bike grips specifically, I’ve had good success bringing my worn down ones back up to proper thickness by wrapping them in strips cut from an old car seat cover.
