It&#8217;s easy to remember, versatile, and virtually betaproof.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m surprised you&#8217;re [wearing those shoes].&#8221;</p>
<p>You can fill in the brackets with anything you notice about her. For example:</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m surprised you&#8217;re [wearing that color scarf].&#8221;</p>
<p>Naturally, the girl will follow up indignantly with something like:</p>
<p>&#8220;Why? What do you mean?!&#8221;</p>
<p>You&#8217;ll want to calibrate the sting of your reply to her beauty. If she&#8217;s an 8 or above, go harsh:</p>
<p>&#8220;Your colors don&#8217;t match. Unless that was the look you were going for.&#8221;</p>
<p>If she&#8217;s lower than an 8, soften the edges:</p>
<p>&#8220;Oh, nothing. It&#8217;s a unique choice. It takes some courage to pull that off.&#8221;</p>
<p>Occasionally, you&#8217;ll come across a girl who will challenge your rude observation with a response like this:</p>
<p>&#8220;Yeah, well, I love these shoes. I&#8217;m surprised you notice stuff like that.&#8221;</p>
<p>If she gives you flak, don&#8217;t sweat it. You&#8217;re in! A testy girl is an intrigued girl. You&#8217;ve nudged her out of the indifferent zone into the shit test zone. Consider this a troop advancement.</p>
