		<description>Scott, the next time you go to one of those trade shows, and some salesgirl/prostitute pretends to flirt with you, you should turn into a real slimeball.  You know, touch her inappropriately and say inappropriate things, such as, "Nice hooters," or, "You want to see a real iPod?  I'll show you an iPod..."  And when she complains you can say, "Come on, baby... you know you want it!"

Also, I love your self-description.

Fuck awkwardness, Scott.  Take life by the balls and spit in its face!

I tell Paul to just say whatever pops into his head as a means to achieve "small talk."  If one person says something, just say the first thing your brain thinks of -- free-associate.

But this approach gives mixed results.  Sometimes Paul says really weird things.  His associative thinking leads down odd paths.  So when he believes people are thinking he's weird, he'll says, "Sorry... I'm weird.  Sometimes I just say whatever pops into my head because I'm too awkward and bad at small talk.  So then I try and I do a bad job.  Sorry... Hee-hee...Sorry..."

At that point, usually whoever he was talking to smiles awkwardly and walks away.</description>
