i performed the trick money to burn on my porch to one of my moms friends and she chased me for about ten minutes screaming "how did you do that"

I performed Diminishing Returns to a close friend of my families, and she screamed her head off, literally.

Jesus! Were you done for manslaughter or murder? Or did you have some rubber cement handy for a quick fix?

i've received marriage proposals a couple of times. XD
its the trick where you fan out a few cards and tell them to think of one, and then after you patter and fan them out again it's disappeared. weird thing is they never even ask to examine the pack...
I've also gotten the "dumbfounded silence" reactions using the reveals in special decks, particularly bar codes :) funny because they're so simple, but the reveals turn it into a kind of "happening".

You recived....marriage proposals?!?!
Who were you perfroming to?
Also is the trick your tlaking Is similar to runaway from the ultragaff deck?

She's a girl so it's not that weird Kieran... tho... barcode reveals haven't done me much good up to now... i tried them once... all i got was a dirty look that says "so what?"

similar to runaway, yeah :)

:cry: what image does that give us guys...

I did a barcode reveal once to someone and I got a similar reaction. Also

i don't think you want to hear my answer...

Oh but I do:D

ok then, it gives us guys the image of a shady bunch trying to woo girls as soon as we see one and try to justify the action of wooing with any means possible. i told you you didn't want to know.

Yeah thats what I thought aswell, except for the shady part, makes me think of people with balck hair and a fringe that covers their eyes and someone you dont want to cross.

what's with the stereotype about black-haired people? =.=
EVERYONE here have natural black hair, and it's a good color, why would the word shady remind you of it?( i see the same thing as you do, except that the color of their hair is unnaturally blond)

theres no stereotype about black haired people :P

no no, i was referring to the post above( and with my terrible literature skills, i probably wasn't able to express what i mean 100%)

Hmmm.... because black hair seems somewhat... shady ( i have black hair aswell)

We are all shady. Even Mark is! Look how shady those.. shades are..
