Here's where I disagree. Magic can be a good icebreaker if done tactfully, but as soon as people want to talk to you, it's time to put the cards away and speak like a human being.

Typical male. Gets honest advice directly from the source, but he's too d*mn proud to take it. Magic is not a substitute for personality. If you as a person have about as much depth as a teaspoon, no amount of gimmicky crap is going to turn you into a Cassanova.

If magic can be killed by a bunch of malnourished, pasty, rich white kids, it wasn't a very good art to begin with.

If you want mentalism, go with Practical Mental Effects. Can't lose.

Whoop-dee-sh*t. Here's your cookie, now shut up. To address the actual point, perhaps you could expound on this a little more. There's a dozen different directions this could go in, and I want to know if there's anything specific you were looking for.

Truth be told, I'm something of a black sheep around here. I'm curmudgeoning, sarcastic, and my default emotion is hate. Of course, without guys like me, things would get very boring. Which goes back to my earlier point that nobody gives a dog's bollocks what a magician thinks is...

If they did it would be a moot point, because owning one of those would mean I'd no longer be able to ever again use the body parts it's supposed to support.

Apparently I did not put enough banana peels and pie-in-the-face gags into the analogy to make it ridiculous enough for you to figure out the joke on your own. Of course, this is Theory 11. That just raises further questions. Like, why do magicians seem to think the two ideas are mutually...

Lesson number one: Never take anything I say at face value. You'll end up in an awkward situation when the 3:15 to Obvious-ville pulls into the station and the conductor curb stomps you for not having a ticket. The answer may irritate you a bit. Doc Shiels once said that Uri Geller is more...

Since an abundance of jokes have already been made about the immensely bizarre notion of copying and pasting that wasteland of text instead of providing us with a link, allow me to instead point out the fact that this article is now several years old and has been discussed to death. I gave up...

Threads like this are comedy gold. You always have the hopeful guys speculating on ways to use magic to meet women, the cliche-spouting naysayers who give advice so one-dimensional it's about as useless as a bass guitar in a metal album, the few girls here who point out the stupidity and get...

The only reason those could exist is because someone is buying them. It's times like these I'm really glad I'm a guy.

Frankly I think the whole battle system is going to diminish even further what little decent discussion there is around here. Seeing all these threads pop up is basically the magical equivalent of a bunch of 12-years-olds showing off their Pokemon to one another.

Definately put it on my wishlist then.

Agreed. To be funny, it needs more bleeding.

Dude, stop it. For your own good. All you're doing is embarassing yourself by attacking people over nothing. Christ, even I have more sense than that. And playing armchair psychologist is just icing on the cake. Joke. Noun. Thing said or done intended to cause laughter. Often...

Again, you're just taking the p***. That is so petty of you. Obviously, you don't know me as well as you think you do. I would explain it to you, but you have neither earned that privelege, nor would you actually listen.

Again, what makes you think it's a gimmick? How can you be sure I don't genuinely hate you all? So until I do, you'll make crap up and try to pass it off as facts. Very classy. Did you type that with your pinky extended? If you have a bone to pick with me, you can say it to me. You...

Who said it was a gimmick? I have a black heart filled with hate. If you ask my relations, is because of all that metal I listen to. But in truth it's because every day I come to prefer the company of my audiences over that of magicians. When did I do that? You criticize me for being...

I couldn't find any reviews of this effect, so I'm asking that anyone who owns it put one up. I'm very, very intrigued by this and was wondering if its something I should invest in considering my climbing interest in mentalism. I want to know how clean it is, if there are any drawbacks that...
