hey guys
this is a new opener i made up
me: hey
Hb:hi
me: do you believe in ghosts and the supernatural?
Hb: no/yes/ i do not know
me: guess what happend to me last night?
HB: what?
me: i was just going to sleep at about 2am, when suddenly i heard some noises in the kitchen( pause) so i went to check it out, i entred the kitchen and saw my fridge open and there was a knife on the table, my heart dropped in my pants. there was no one there complete silent ( be silent), i walked to slowly to the living room and with baseball bat. i saw someone sitting in my couch i went close to him, closer and closer, i was ready to hit him in the head as hard as i can. he stood up and i froze thenn ( pause) u can have some one scare her from behind or u can/ or u can tell her i woke up and it was all a dream
Hb: ommmggg, ommmmg and sually the jumb in top of u
and u laugh aaahahahahahhah
that is being fun, cocky and unpreictable.
use it and tell me how it goes, thanks

How?
How the hell is this cocky?
Really? You want US to tell you how it goes?
Go field test it yourself please.


Also, why would you walk up to a COMPLETE stranger and say: Guess what happened to me last night?
And then come with a way too long story?

I see this as more of a prank than an opener

well yeah, it is a prank
ahahah and i did test it, it was really good. and funny maybe not cocky but funny.
and use it or not, i do not care, am not forcing you.

not cocky at all but awkwardly funny

hahahhaha i knoww hahahaha

This should be done with a wing who sneaks up from behind and scares her.

Build up the part where you see the guy sitting there. Say something like "The thing about my living room is it's really dark and only a little light from the street lamp outside shines through the window. I couldn't make out the person's face, but there was definitely someone there. As I crept closer, I held my bat up ready to swing and...YAAGHHHHH!!! (your wing grabs her from behind and shakes her and you get a really scared look on your face to help sell the effect.)

And don't say it happened last night. Just tell it like it's a story about something that happened in the past. It'll be more believable that way.

i like the idea of bringing up a ghost story. I've done that a few times. its good when we analyse the story together and try to find an alternate explanation for the phenomenon.

I've never used it as an opener though. Seems a little bit too intimate and personal to talk about to a stranger
