> [@ZipperJJ](#): > > I have a theory that **PSXer** posts stuff from movie plots of little-known movies, making himself the subject. > > If that’s not true, I’m sort of disappointed. I used to think that, too. Every time I’d open a PSXer thread, I’d try to figure out the movie. I haven’t gotten one right yet. So now I think he’s actually just making up scripts for the people he sees every day in passing. He goes to the movies so he makes up popcorn and ticker ripper threads. He goes to college so he makes up a laserdisk and pog thread. Then he sees a guy on a cell phone and a guy above him laughing at something. So he invents a twisted scenario like it happened to him. Clever, I say. > [@PSXer](#): > > girls don’t like me I am too fat and too shy to talk to anyone and incapable of having actual conversations that don’t turn into me making jokes or movie references > and girls don’t like run-on sentences Are you **mookieblaylock** ’s sock puppet? ---

> [@jz78817](#): > > they tend to go together. Lemme guess: Girls don’t like “nice guys”, right? Wait a minute…I thought **PSXer** said in another thread he was in college – he was asking about bringing his laser disc player? Hey – there’s something!!! Tell girls you have a laser disc player! They’ll be all over you!!! And get them some free popcorn from the trashcan. They’ll love it. ---

Maybe she wants to watch a movie that came out in past decades? **PSXer** , if you really want this girl, you are going to have to go the more traditional route. Completely ignore her and spread rumors around that she wanted you to bang her but she got too fat. ---

Oh, oh! Write her some sensitive new-agey poetry. Be sure to reveal your innermost feelings, and perhaps some secret stuff about yourself. Make sure you ask her to never reveal this poetry to another living human, ESPECIALLY her physical boyfriend. ---
