Okay, I have been thinking about this for a while, and I really don't think an opinion opener is your best bet. It almost portrays you being needy, and don't really have another female there to talk to. I think bringing up something "relavent" like the "did you see that fight??" would hook more interest, because then they will be interested in who is was and what happened... an opinion opener seems like it NEEDS a stack, whereas a situational opener can spark a natural conversation.

Also, why not throw out a neg to begin with? It's all about attitude, not what you say. Even if she isn't a perfect 10, you just DHV'd yourself, and even an insecure 7 can be hooked after a quick semi-compliment.

I think more stress in this forum should be placed on your state-of-mind rather than material. Girls are not reacting to your canned material, not because they've heard it before, but because you're doing it in a robotic fashion.

You need to be more OBSERVANT overall, so you can seem natural. If you pull out some neg that is from left field, it's going to be awkward.

The majority of the discussion should be about how you view yourself, and how you view others around you. If you hear anything about Clinton other than (you know), you would know that he commanded presence when he walked into a room. You could feel his presence. If you command presence in a room, you don't need to be using such DLV as opinion openers.
