Do You Wanna Mess Around? Do You Wanna Spend The Night?

"The Pickup Artist" is completely nuts, and my roommate and I set our DVR to record every episode. Good grief. I mean, Mystery's weird fuzzy hat alone could be the subject of an entire book. Who dresses like that? You're just gonna hook up with very drunk chicks who hate themselves enough to sleep with men in funny hats, and man, that's nothing to wake up to.

P.S. The headline of the review, for those unaware, is a nod to Magnolia.

Aw, crap. You just made me realized I missed this week's ep. OH CRAP, you just made me realize I am officially a regular viewer of The Pick Up Artist. Never have I both equally loved and loathed anything so much since I discovered tequila in college.

Oh, and to quote Sister Patterson, Mystery is totally an "Undercover Gay."

Did you see him being interviewed on Conan O'Brien? (it's on YouTube) Classic. He spent the entire interview mocking Mystery's mind blowing tips to get a woman to fuck you, i.e. leave the house, wear an eye-catching accessory, establish a location for sex, etc.

Conan: "Look, I'm wearing goggles! Let's go to my sex location!"

In this picture it sort of looks like Mystery is about to do his own very special version of the Humpty Dance. You know, because he's Mystery, pronounced with the 'ystery'.
