Somehow, I'm still not seeing the light.

And this is supposed to make me feel better, how?

Bolded for the wtf moment. Using that same logic, we can also (erroneously) invalidate The Jinx, Modern Coin Magic, Card College, 13 Steps to Mentalism, Mark Wilson's Complete Course in Magic, etc. I can actually feel my brain sobbing. Have you noticed that all artists in all genres...

Because at no point did you actually express a coherent thought.

Looking through this thread it seems most of the people responding either really want to be Banachek or are really, really wishing that they can have it both ways.

It might also have something to do that most of the people who use them are boring enough to put Ben Stein into a coma.

lolz!!!11! Jerry is devos boifrend, so lets not listen to h1m! D&D 4evar!! And people call me crazy when I say this place is like a cult.

To doggedly use the same sleight in every trick is a bit like a musician writing an entire album in the same key.

Only temporary. I got a lot of grunt work done and gave relax a bit, but there's still a lot to be done.

Not the best snap change I've ever seen, and it loses points for being a one-shot staring at the camera with no live audience. As an aside, that bit at the end makes you look like a dick. You haven't actually placed a copyright on your videos to my knowledge, and I would advise you to also...

So a montage of crotch shot color changes and sybil variations with no screening process for content? Excuse me, I need an ipecac.

I wrote one of these almost a year ago. Since then, so many have come up that I've started to hate the concept, but nevertheless... I'm going to be going on hiatus from this and many other sites for the foreseeable future. I'm experiencing a rather pressing financial crisis at the moment...

Magic is theater. If you're not treating it as such, then why are you wasting everyone's time?

Projection is ultimately an issue of resonance. You're not talking louder, just fuller. Lay on your bed with a heavy book on your torso right at the point where the rib age meets the belly. Take a few minutes of breathing through your nose to direct your breath in toward the point where the...

This is purely assumption on my part, but I'm guessing you're using a principle similar to Mark Strivings' Sight Unseen case, which to my knowledge he is no longer manufacturing. The reason I say this is because a couple of mentalists have pointed out to me that Mark's concept was not...

Probably it would have cover art and a monosyllabic title that teenagers and hipsters would describe as "gritty".

Just making a point. It's possible to have a good brand without resorting to monosyllabic mother****ery.

Where do you draw the line? At what point do you arbitrarily consider yourself good enough? I'm an advocate of constantly pushing comfort zones. Who said they were? Well, if magic is the only thing you've got going for you, then sure. Personally speaking, I have my business to develop by...

You were expecting me to pull a punch? Numerous attempts have been made to raise the standards, but they go largely ignored by the masses. I'm beginning to believe that the idea of better performances raising standards all around is a logical fallacy. A lot of the people using this...

Cereal was a bad example. Cinnamon Toast Crunch Count Chocula Boo Berry Lucky Charms Waffle Crisp And those are just ones I like. And in sodas you can find examples as well. Mountain Dew Vanilla Coke Crystal Pepsi (and you can't tell me that failed because of the name)...
