Once in a while I use the term “goo-roo fanboy.”
And some people may wonder what that is, exactly.
The best description I can think of is from the book “The Game” by Neil Strauss, which is about a guy’s journey from being a total chump with the women… to becoming one of the world’s greatest pickup artists.
Here’s what I mean:
Towards the end of the book, the author (his code name is “Style”) becomes a pickup artist guru. In fact, he’s such a respected guru the rush of newbie pick up artists entering the scene (due to seminars and courses sold by OTHER pick up artist newbies online — kind of like the Internet marketing scene today) start to emulate him.
In other words…
They all shave their heads just like Style does.
They grow his exact goatee and wear his exact kind of clothing.
And they even use the exact same pickup lines Style uses.
The result?
Before long, the entire part of town where these guys do their thing in is crawling with little Style “clones” marching the strip looking the exact same, acting the exact same and using the exact same “tricks”, one-liners and techniques. (Which become less and less effective the more these sheeple mindlessly use them on the same pool of women).
And eventually, all that’s left are a bunch of “mini me” Styles.
No original thoughts.
No daring to buck the trend.
No questioning goo-roo “dogma.”
And that, my friend, is what a goo-roo fanboy is.
They latch onto a goo-roo and ape everything that goo-roos does. They use the goo-roo’s emails verbatim. Never test anything outside accepted goo-roo orthodoxy. And, even worse, start selling info products based on what little they know (which is often skewed or outdated info) to OTHER hapless newbies who then follow suit — at which point they grant themselves goo-roo status.
Kind of amusing, isn’t it?
Probably embarrassing for the original goo-roo, too.
But that’s what a goo-roo fanboy is.
