“When you act like a nice guy, everyone examines your motives with a microscope. When you act like a conscienceless louse, they generally take you at face value.”

“You act like a team player,you be nice to everyone for your entire life,then you die.”

“When you really don’t like a guy, they’re all over you, and as soon as you act like you like them, they’re no longer interested.”

“When you're a guy you have to act like an asshole sometimes, so that the real asswholes won't bug you.”

“If your only nice to the people that are nice to you, big deal; what do you want, a gist certificate? Everyone does that. And if you only say "hi" in the hall to the people that say hi to you, what are doing more than anyone else?Maybe you know people who are different when they're alone than when they're with their friends. they might say "hi" to you if your alone, but with a group they act like they've never seen you. ”

“Was it frisson when you saw a guy smile and it made your heart act all weird?”
