Excerpt from Neil Strauss' best-selling book "The Game" (p. 159):So now that I’d opened the set, it was time to demonstrate value and
blow Heidi out. I ran a piece I’d invented after meeting the fake sisters in
Miami — the best friends test.
“I have to ask you guys: How long have you known each other?” I
began.
“About six years,” one of the girls said.
“I could totally tell.”
“How?”
“Rather than explain, I’ll give you two the best friends test.”
The girls leaned in toward me, thrilled by the idea of an innocuous
test. Guys in the community have an expression for this phenomenon: I
was giving them “chick crack”. Most women, they say, respond to
routines involving tests, psychological games, fortune-telling, and cold-
reading like addicts respond to free drugs.
“Okay,” I said, as if I were a bout to ask a serious question. The girls
huddled in closer. “Do you both use the same shampoo?”
They looked at each other to decide on an answer, then turned to me
and opened their mouths to speak.
