curiously enough if you talk too much you can come off as being quite stupid.
nothing against those with a gift of gab, but the more you say, then the more opportunity you give the stupid in your brain from coming out your mouth. see, if you constantly talk, then probability says you will say something stupid. youll kill a joke, youll say something you shouldnt, etc etc.
so the trick here then, based on that, is that you should say very little.
and what you do say should be either ridiculousy funny, or remarkably intelligent (or both if your a cocky son of a bitch).
because if you say something intelligent but then bury it under thirty minutes of rubbish and incoherent babbling no one is going to remember the smart thing you said, instead they will remember that you just went on and on about nothing in particular (which many people do when they fancy a person... just watch em). on the other hand, say only the intelligent phrase, and people will assume your smarter than you really are.
its a matter of proportions.
intelligent comments/all comments.
you want to keep those fairly close, of course we can also include in there,
witty or funny comments+intelligent comments/all comments > stupid comments (squared)/all comments.
this is the desired ratio. obviously hard to maintain. because everything you say is factored into that equation, so every time you open your mouth, you risk upsetting the ratios, and we cant have that.
of course we cant have everyone being quiet all the time. so what we need is another addition to the formula..
[#people talking (raised to avg. # of their friends) * comment ratio - (blood alcohol content per person * person)] - [# stupid comments * #of people{raised to 2x#friends you share*awkward silences you caused (cubed)}] = how they will remember you (higher numbers are better, negatives mean you need to stop talking).
this doesnt take into account being caught in lies or acting stupid (vomiting, key-ing cars, staring at other people, wetting your pants [dirty girl], etc.) but that gets rather complicated and doesnt matter too much for me right now.
however. there is an interesting thing. that no matter how stupid something is, if you just run with it, it wont seem that stupid. if you say something stupid (ie. i wish i was a cat when everyone is talking about the latest car and how it does everything but pleasure you), then run with it, just take off and go. this can turn awkward stupid moment into something funny or at least, less weird than people think it is when first hearing it.... unless your a freak in which case you better go back to flossing with your own hair. (thats what they do.)
its all true......
