Cool thanks bro!

Establish Social Proof with Anyone you DO know - Usually you are invited to the party by at least one person you know, and there may be one or two others that you may have met before (doesn't matter if you know them well or not). Quickly reacquaint yourself with these people, and do so LOUDLY. Early on in the party, everyone is sober and milling around and being shy and not sure what to do. They're waiting for 1. Alcohol, and 2. THE PARTY MAN to get them into state. You know what I mean by the party man... It's the loud guy (or girl) that everyone loves who seems to take over the room and get everyone pumped. BE THAT PERSON. Even if it's one of those weird somber parties, go out of your way to pump everyone's state. Get yourself blown out of the party if you have to (I mean, get pumped, and if everyone is so weird that they can't handle you, then just leave... you're not going to get laid in this environment and it's fucking boring). I'm not talking about professional events, of course. Those require a more James Bond type of game, but I'm not talking about that here.

Don't Wait to be introduced - Don't wait around for your one friend to introduce you or for people to approach you. Introduce yourself to EVERYONE. Start first with your friend's friends. Then radiate out from there. When you do this, INTERRUPT CONVERSATIONS. I mean literally walk into the middle of a group and say, "hey, I don't know you guys! I'm Tubarao." Then hold out your hand with a big fat grin. Then after the introductions, bring up whatever you just interrupted humbly, eg. "didn't mean to interrupt your conversation guys! Knitting is pretty fascinating though, I tried it once and almost killed my cat." Some guys are afraid to do this because they don't want to be perceived as assholes. But remember what I said above: Most people don't know what to do at a party. They're waiting for that ONE GUY to start talking about something and then they all jump on it like it's a life raft. They actually have zero attachment to the conversation and it's all bullshit anyway. You're just offering a better and funner option (= YOU).

Compliments - By far the easiest way to make friends with people is to be genuinely interested in them and to compliment them about their things. For example, I ALWAYS compliment the host on his or her apartment/house (and immediately making friends with the host is AWESOME). Ask for a mini-tour if possible. Compliment less-attractive women on their clothes/purses, and compliment guys on whatever they're into. I'm deliberately leaving hot chicks out of this, you should approach them last, and by then you should have enough social value that you can just use your standard game (without getting too cockblocked by a jealous chode or bitch-shielded due to lack of pre-selection). If you show up at a party where you don't know anyone and immediately approach hot chicks, you will get blown out and things will become really awkward for you.

Commonalities - The next thing beyond complimenting is commonalities. You can't just keep saying, "you rock you rock". You have to find things you share and then talk about those things so you can get them interested in you too. Do this in a humble way. Don't show off how awesome you are at XYZ. Just express that you're familiar with it so that they feel like you have something in common. For example, don't say, "yeah, I'm awesome at dancing; I won the state competition every year since 1872". Instead say, "dance is awesome! It's such a great way to express yourself and connect to people on an intimate level." The double benefit there is that your conversation immediately goes deeper, because you're talking about feelings, ambitions, and personal things. You can do this with guys and girls. If you never dive deeper like this, your conversations will always stay superficial and you'll keep running out of things to talk about ("you like star wars? cool, me too. Uuuuuuuh, so what else do you like?" SNOOZE). You should be making the conversation interesting FOR YOURSELF. If you're enjoying yourself, then they probably are too. But if you're just flapping your lips to fill the void, then don't waste your time.

Be in charge or be gone - Notice the examples above involve you taking over a group of people (via a loud introduction), and then leading the conversation (asking a question then validating them and building upon it with more personal stuff). If at some point you lose steam, don't linger around like a chode. LEAVE. Go to another group and start all over again. Basically you go around enabling people to open up and have fun. Once they go off on their own, then you don't have to stick around anymore. You've done your job! If after you've gone around meeting people and pumping them up you run out of groups, then just hang out by yourself and fuck around with your phone, or just stretch out on a couch and gaze upon your subjects with divine approval (you have to be perfect comfortable being totally alone too). Or better yet go approach that hotty who's been your real target this whole time. If you do though, pull her in your lap immediately. It has to be clear that you're gaming her and not bumming around because you have nobody else to talk to.

Mega Presence - This is the basic stuff I've talked about elsewhere. Take up LOTS OF SPACE. If you're standing, stand with your legs apart. If you're sitting, take up lots of space. If someone tries to sit next to you and it would force you to have to shift into a smaller space, just get up. Put your leg up on the arm of the couch and lean on your leg. Open the person in conversation. Either you'll have fun conversation from a position of strength, or they'll get weirded out and leave and then you reclaim the couch. Talk more loudly than anyone else. Laugh loudly and smile big. KINO EVERYONE. Accent compliments, commonalities, or laughter with KINO. If you have trouble coming up with stuff to talk about, talk about stuff that would give you an excuse to touch them (eg. their clothing or jewelery... even with a tattoo you can grab their arm for a closer look). Smelling people is fun too... you get to lean in close. And again, this works on guys too (eg. "Dude are you a lumberjack? You smell like whiskey and pine trees" *big sniff*). Don't worry about being perceived as gay, everyone loves gay guys, and as soon as you start hardcore flirting with chicks, it'll be obvious that you're not. I have literally never had someone react weirdly to me because they thought I was gay. I think a better way to describe it is "broish" (but without the spiked hair, popped collars, and general douchiness).

Be 100% comfortable and own the place - Do what you want in their house (within reason; Don't kick their furniture over). Eat their food. Drink their drinks (if it's a BYOB thing, ask first really quick in a loud friendly way; make it weird for them to say "no"). Be comfortable talking to people, as if YOU'RE the host (in fact, show up there and pretend like you are, and a lot of people may actually assume that you're either the host or a close friend of the host). But also be comfortable talking to no one. Don't get weird or nervous if you're by yourself and don't stand next to a group of people like a chode listening to what they say. If you need a prop, use your phone or a drink. Otherwise just get super relaxed on a couch or somewhere and take up LOTS of room, while looking around the room VERY LAZILY with a lazy smile, like you're a fat Prince showering his citizens with approval. You are king of this domain and you are letting these folks bask in your glory. Their should be NO point at all when you feel uncomfortable or out of place. If you do things right, people who show up later in the party will go out of their way to introduce themselves to you because they think you're the alpha party man. At that point you will have ALL of the power, and you will have your pickings of the women.

Jumpstarting a lame party - If the party is quiet (because the host did a shitty job), try to get things going. Pretend like it's YOUR party now and decide what it needs. Party games are fun (Cards Against Humanity is amazing... Twister is really great too). TXT your friends who are nearby (especially orbiter chicks). Turn up the music. Whatever. Of course, only do this if it's worth it (eg. there's a solid target there, or you invite a chick you want to fuck). Otherwise just leave.

While you're still learning - Be willing to embarrass yourself. If you're just starting out learning to be more social, you WILL fuck up. You will step on toes, piss people off, and say really weird shit. That's OK! Be the first to laugh at yourself. Be humble ("yeah I suck at parties, haha, I think I spend too much time with my dog."). Don't leave immediately though. If you piss off one person or one group of people, just go talk to someone else. Don't leave the party until you've burned the whole thing to the ground! Then after the fact, go over what happened and learn from it. Swallow down the knee jerk emotional reactions and just look at it like developing a new skill. Everyone's got their own style. Maybe you're not big on smiling or laughing. Whatever. Just work out your own style. But you have to push past your comfort zone a lot before you discover it.

The fact is you're a busy guy who has to get the most out of every moment. You don't have time to spend hours at some party without getting something out of it. When you're a party you want to have maximum fun, make maximum friends, and fuck maximum hot chicks. Anything less and you're wasting your time. When you show up at a party, you should have the goal to have an AMAZING TIME. Otherwise, why the fuck are you there? I see too many lame chodes who have nothing better going on on a Friday, so they go take up space at a party like a fucking fungus. What the fuck is the point? Just stay home and read a book you loser. When you get to the party, take it the fuck over and make it work for YOU. If you're not collecting numbers/friends/business cards/hilarious stories and memories/having an amazing time, then go home. This is about time management. Between work, hobbies, women, and your MISSIONS, you need to prioritize every moment you spend.
