Buddy, if you could find a job where you are always, 100% of the time happy, never let go of it. I promise you, ask any entertainer, they will say they have made sacrifices, or that there have been times they couldn't put their heart into the work. What you said here is just, well, ignorant...

Dylan is merely trying to voice his opinion. While writing an entire thread about useless posts is in and of itself ironic, he enjoys this place and is just trying help out. There is no need for the put downs or any rudeness. If you are saying this thread is pointless, and you yourself keep...

That's awesome to know ^^ -ThrallMind

When you said you never did a kids party earlier in this thread: I am not doubting your talent as a magician, bud. I've never seen you perform, so I can't say. However, from what you said when I asked if you performed at a kids party before, and you said no, that leads one to believe you've...

Then why don't you do that? I'm not trying to attack you or your beliefs, but giving advice to someone new on the subject without having any actual experience on it yourself is like the blind leading the blind. And very pissed off parents who paid you, and the other parents who saw you fail...

Yo say "Believe me," yet you've never performed in that type of setting. I have on multiple occasions. Don't speak on assumptions as experience. Bad idea. Walk around at a kids party? That isn't a good idea. With parties, parents pay you to take the kids off their hands for about 45...

Around this time yesterday. -ThrallMind

Have you ever performed a childrens show? Not for a brother or sister and their friends, I mean for a bunch of kids hyped up on cake and candy after running around outside? Especially if it's before presents... Try it, then see how long you can keep their attention. ;) -ThrallMind

I'm quoting stuff! -ThrallMind

Except...you could figure out effects for those cards without buying them, so you know if you actually need them. Moreso, spending $15 on a deck of gaff cards and then asking people on a forum how you should use them doesn't leave very much up to discovery on your part. However, since I always...

You bought something without knowing what to do with it...? I'm not trying to sound rude by this, I'm just curious. -ThrallMind

Considering the lawyers David has, I doubt it. And the McDonalds coffee is a moot issue. Cases like that can make it to the courts, but I can assure you the person suing will not win, if the case isn't thrown out right there. -ThrallMind

I'm sorry. Sue you? You may as well sue all the smokers around you, or David Copperfields act. He shoots a green laser, more harmful to the eye then red, directly at the audience in his laser act. This is harmful to your eyes, after all. :rolleyes: -ThrallMind

It was good, up until the final sig remove. If I was doing that, I would remove the sig, and slap the sig onto my arm. Removing the signature, then popping the card on your arm, with the same card still on the pack doesn't make sense. Good job otherwise! -ThrallMind

The structure of magic is amazing. It'll help make you a better communicator, hypnotist, and magician, in my opinion. It's a study of language and it's use in therapy. They do this by explaining about the way to structure your sentences, word choice, and so on and so fourth so that you have...

And yet...you still come here and post on these forums. What's that make you, dummy? Anyways, in all seriousness, no need for the E / Criss bashing. Back on topic... I think a fire levitation act would be awesome, as well as a TnR which can be done surrounded. -ThrallMind

First, when you start off, don't count the cards as you peel them off the deck. It's over-proving, and can lead to suspicion. Saying four cards, then peeling them off is enough. Secondly, it was hard to see the fourth ace when you first showed those were the four cards you had. Thirdly...

Very nice job! -ThrallMind

As far as gimmicks, I have no problem with them. I am in no way a purist. I just thought it bad form to state something as a definition of "A purist is someone who places themselves before the audience." :P -ThrallMind

So, you agree with me. You cannot state that the "definition" of a purist is someone who puts themselves before the audience as fact as Brad did. It all depends on your approach to what you do. -ThrallMind
