*****From the Mailbag***** Hi, Loving the blog posts bro! I
actually print out your tips and
tape them up around my dorm
room. You guys have helped
me a lot, but I have 1 question:
WHAT SHOULD I DO ON FACEBOOK?! I'm in college and
almost every girl has a
Facebook profile, but I'm
clueless on there! Thanks for
the help and keep up the great
work! Jimmy

Wow, sometimes I think Mark
Zuckerberg invented sex
considering how many times a
day I get asked for tips on
how to use Facebook! First, realize that Facebook is
simply an extension of your
personality--just like
everything else you do around
women. To think there's some
magical Facebook formula to suddenly make girls fall in love
with you over a computer is
more absurd than Zuckerberg's
Velcro hear. ;-) Although, I CAN share ways to
"work the angles" so that you
use Facebook to complement
your assets and ensure you're
always putting your best self
(profile?) forward for the ladies. Here are my 3½
Facebook tips for dating (and
casual dating) success:

1. Personality by proxy In today's digital age, we have
the luxury of demonstrating
our personality through
Facebook newsfeeds, Twitter
updates, YouTube videos,
pictures, and blog posts. Unlike the dark ages before
social media, a girl no longer
needs to see you in the flesh to
get a sense of your
awesomeness. She can get a
glimpse of your wit, charm, and sex appeal just by
checking out your newsfeed
while surfing the net on her
laptop. It is important, however, that
you use the newsfeed wisely.
Don't "SPAM" your personality.
Ideally, you should aim to mix
a healthy dose of witty
comments and observations, pictures, and external links. Examples of
witty comments
may include the following
(credit: the Twitter page of
@therobjudge) therobjudge: Sometimes I wish
Twitter rules applied in real life,
limiting people to 120
characters before having to
shut the fuck up! therobjudge: Has anyone else
noticed that Captain Hook is a
HUGE pedophile? Guy lives in
Never-Never Land amongst
little boys, luring them to his
'boat' therobjudge: Gym grunter
back at it again. Guy sounds
like he's having intense
intercourse with a porcupine.
Yes it's really that bad. Examples of pictures are
obvious: anything you're
doing that is awesome. For
example, don't take "boring"
pics of you with a shit-eating
grin, obviously posing for a picture; instead, snap a picture
with your iPhone as you're
chugging a pitcher of beer,
taking a piss on the side of the
road during an awesome
roadtrip, or doing something else that shows ACTION.
Always ask yourself: what
does this picture say
about ME. If it just says you're
a smiling douche bag, don't
post it! Finally, examples of external
links should be some awesome
thing you did in written,
picture, or video form.
Ideally, you should shoot for
an update at 9:30am, 2pm, and
6pm. If you're having an
exceptional day, post more but
be careful not to overdo it. You
don't want to seem like the guy who's tweeting too hard
or lives on Facebook (that guy
SUCKS).
2. Oversell whatever you do If you want to get a girl to
hang out with you, warm her
up to the idea by overselling
the event well in advance of
inviting her. For instance, say
you want to invite a girl out for drinks on Thursday night--
she should be reading posts
like, "Off to paint the town
awesome at O'Flannagan's pub.
Chugging pitchers of ambrosia
and singing 80s songs-- heavenly!" the Thursday prior
(at around 6pm of course). If you also post pictures of you
and your co-ed group of
friends having a blast, it
sweetens the pot even more.
You have to ask yourself: are
you the creep trying to weasel your way into her party, or
are you the man who's going
to suck her into your party? The grass is always greener on
the other side, so everyone
thinks everyone else's party is
more awesome than their
own. Be the kickass minority
who not just believes--but truly knows--his party puts
everyone's party to shame!
(Then, go ahead and post about
it on Facebook.)
3. Develop an idiosyncratic
Facebook style* This one might take time to
develop, but it pays dividends
in the long term. If you can
find some "quirky" way to
express yourself through
Facebook, you can demonstrate a lot of
personality with limited user
features. For me, that means absolutely abusing the "Like it" button.
Unlike normal people, I
habitually and systematically
"like" everything on someone's
wall--including my own. Think about it from a girl's
perspective: how funny would
it be if you logged on Facebook
and had "Rob Judge likes 15 of
your comments." Either you'll
come across as a total freak or the most awesome guy ever.
However, if you've kept my
other tips in mind, it will be the
latter. Therefore, find some stupid
"Facebookism" that appeals to
your sense of humor, and milk
it for all it's worth. It might be
a lascivious poke, hilarious
event invites, or just a recurring comment you
always post in the
"comments."
Regardless, make it awesome
and idiosyncratic and you'll be
well on your way to better Facebook game. *Notice this is only ½ a tip
because it's important NOT to
overdo this one--even if it's
your "thing." Anything
overdone is tryhard and loses
its appeal. Do it enough to make funny, but don't get
predictable or obnoxious!
