<p>😆</p>
<p>This kid is a <a href="https://heartiste.wordpress.com/2009/07/24/what-is-a-natural/" target="_blank">natural alpha</a>, and not because he threw a massive party that caused $20,000 in damages. Why? Let us count the ways.</p>
<ul>
<li>He <a href="https://heartiste.wordpress.com/2009/04/21/war-of-the-roses/" target="_blank">doesn&#8217;t really apologize</a>. Rather, he gives a classic Clintonesque non-apology.</li>
<li>He&#8217;s a master of aloofness. Grilled and patronized by a hot older woman, this kid stands his ground. Unshakeable.</li>
<li>He never smiles. The joke&#8217;s on us.</li>
<li>Doesn&#8217;t give a shit.</li>
<li>If he does give a shit, he sure isn&#8217;t showing it.</li>
<li>Maintains <a href="https://heartiste.wordpress.com/2007/05/21/no-disturbance-in-the-force/" target="_blank">state control</a>. On national TV. With a nipple ring.</li>
<li>Cocky sonofabitch.</li>
<li>Shows no deference toward a higher status bitch.</li>
<li>Always ready with a glib answer.</li>
<li>Has mastered the art of <a href="https://heartiste.wordpress.com/2009/06/25/a-test-of-your-game-the-judging-5/" target="_blank">One Word Game</a>.</li>
<li>Assumes his likeability. (&#8220;<a href="https://heartiste.wordpress.com/2009/07/02/reader-mailbag-marriage-independence-day-edition/" target="_blank">Assume the sale</a>.&#8221;)</li>
</ul>
<p>Corey Worthington is the <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086200/" target="_blank">Joel Goodsen</a> of the <a href="https://heartiste.wordpress.com/2008/07/14/so-you-want-to-be-a-badboy/" target="_blank">post-Beta Chump generation</a>, except less of a worrywart. Corey lets the glass egg drop and then claims it looks better with the crack. He could give <a href="https://heartiste.wordpress.com/2009/07/16/alpha-male-cage-match/" target="_blank">these guys</a> a run for their money in the Alpha Male Cage Match of Unstoppable Indifference. Some of you are incredulous. &#8220;But he&#8217;s a tool! A douchebag!&#8221; That&#8217;s right. The kid is a tool and a douchebag, and probably half-baked most of the time. Which is exactly why I chose him for Alpha of the Month contention. Any of you doubt he&#8217;s banging the hottest high school chicks? He is yet further proof that the biggest tools will beat out the respectable betas, and oftentimes <a href="https://heartiste.wordpress.com/2008/10/21/misconceptions-about-the-alpha-male/" target="_blank">even the respectable alphas</a>, in the race for quality pussy.</p>
<p>To all the natural born betas reading this, I suggest emulating Corey. When you are stumped about how to deal with a woman, you need to run Corey Worthington Game.</p>
<p>GIRL: I can&#8217;t believe you slept with my sister! And my Mom!!</p>
<p>YOU: Umm, sorry?</p>
<p>***</p>
<p>GIRL: You were supposed to feed my cat while I was away! Now he&#8217;s dead! What were you thinking??</p>
<p>YOU: I wasn&#8217;t, really.</p>
<p>***</p>
<p>GIRL: You forgot my birthday. You&#8217;re an asshole. You think being a dick is cool?</p>
<p>YOU: Yeah.</p>
<p>***</p>
<p>GIRL: Aren&#8217;t you embarrassed by that stupid tattoo you got? Has your Mom seen it?</p>

<p>YOU: She has. Everyone has. They love it.</p>
<p>GIRL: Grow up and get rid of it, or I&#8217;m breaking up with you!</p>
<p>YOU: Nah, I think I&#8217;ll keep it. I like it.</p>
