Default How to Strike Up a Conversation in an AWKWARD Situation STRATEGY I

Howdy Cornell,

Hows This for AWKWARD...

I parked my car. Big SUV Pulls in behind me.

Huge woman starts to get out.

I had a cement curb in front of me and knew I was Blocked in.

So I jumped out of my car.

HELD the ladies door open for her.

SHE had tinted her hair RUST or Gold, was wearing a Gold pantsuit. And her
SUV was painted Rusty Gold.

So I smiled.

Point to her hair, pointed at her outfit and her car.

BIG Double Thumbs up with my Smile.

I said, "Wow. That is so cool. I've never seen Anybody do that."

SHE GLOWED!

Then I took my hat off to show my lack of hair. And said, "Now I am jealous.
I don't have enough hair to dye ANY color."

She laughed.

And started telling me I could buy a mini hair coloring kit.

And
I
Steered
her
out past my car
and she
saw I
was Boxed in.

Shelly INSISTED on going back and moving her SUV
so I could get out if she took longer shopping than I did.

Heh heh heh.

Default Flower Power-How to FLIP An Awkward Situation In Your Favor #2

Thanks Cornell,

I hate being ignored.

And

I hate having to wait.

So here I am with Steam coming out of my ears as the Wal-mart clerk
allowed the guy ahead of me to GO BACK INTO the Store Shelves
to SWAP something.

Eeeeek.

I whipped a Folded Red Paper Rose out of my pocket
and Started making a Rose from it WHILE SHE WATCHED.

The Clerk pushed his stuff to the side.

Started ringing up MY Stuff.

And I didn't have to say a single word. She did all the talking. THANKED me
for the rose. And chatted away.

AND
By
doing this
she BROKE
the Cash Register.

She and I moved to an Empty cash register nearby. The manager came. The machine was all messed up. Soon 3 or 4 staffers were struggling with the darn thing.

ME?

I'm laughing inside.

And strolled away whistling.

The goombah ahead of me?

HE HAD TO WAIT until they fixed the original cash register
cuz he was partially rung up there.

VERY SATISFYING.

A little revenge (TOTALLY INVISIBLE) on someone who has NO Empathy or care for inconveniencing others.

Thanks,

Hi Glenn,

These are great ideas (you seem to have an unlimited supply of them!)... I'm going to have to start carrying around Lotto tickets and other items just for these occasions!

It's amazing how using a few tips like these can "spark" up your life, and make everything just that little bit easier (as well as more enjoyable)!

I would love to meet you in person one day... I think it'd be great to see you "in action"...

Best wishes,

Dien
