making more friends is easy, actually

In a world where too many people overthink social interactions, and too many people underthink them, one stick figure learned to simply just not think, and instead, carry a bag of 16 tricks to choose from. And they work! probably.

the gist of all the apps in the beginning was dangerously accurate

I was gonna comment requesting "Drawing is Easy, Actually" but then I realized the art style of this channel and think I'll search elsewhere

Video Suggestion:
Quitting addictions (social media)
Sleeping is easy (Fixing broken sleep schedules improved sleep)

As someone who has a lot of social difficulties (Im autistic) I’ve found that talking to a lot of people about things your interested in with the assumption that they are going to dislike you will usually result in a lot of people thinking your weird, but if you talk to enough people you will make friends, the most important thing is the mindset that if someone thinks your weird or dislikes you it isn’t your problem. The only time you shouldn’t do this is in high school because you will get bullied to 💀

0:34 "Be patient" *Shows person in a hospital bed*

yep, about right

If you ever listen to anything while reading comments let it be this- go read the book social secrets mastery, then come back and thank me

great tips, i find the hardest part of "making" friends is not talking to them initially but keeping it going, this video is useful for that

[EvanH]

You've been killing it since you started the channel, dude. Like idk how you do it. Every single video is well-researched, a script with just enough humour, and what are basically technical drawings that do just enough to get your point across. It's like a singularity of just the right amount of effort in every discipline

OKAY I WONT TELL ANYONE THAT THIS VIDEO IS SPONSORED BY INCOGNI

So instead of saying "probably nothing" I should say "trying to find more legal ways to harvest bones for my mantle"?

For anyone wondering when you grow up especially in high school people care less around junior year and just talk, anxiety really just kinda fades away(sometimes, try not to overthink it)

"with great power comes great potential to be weird." TRUE. I swear if anyone says my name too many times it's pretty obvious they read "how to win friends" and are using the method on me and its so cringe.

8:10 Stick City? The lore is getting deeper...

Me reading: #1 Filter out boring people
Me looking at my hobbies: Meditating in silence, reading books alone, looking at boring charts all day long
Looking at my social skills: zero friends and finding fun things boring
Also me: That's not fair

This video made me realize how good i am at talking and communicating with others. I always felt i wss pretty bad at talking to others, i atalked to much, said weird things, not listen enoigh, etc. I always had criticism of myself after i would finish interacting with others. I always hated how i really never think when talking to others (not true, i still think alot but have to be quick) and say what's on my mind without much filter. Maybe i revealed to much or am awkward. I always found ways to degrade myself. Even tho i was aggressively social, i was pretty passive and timid in nature. Now I'm learning alot of things are just in my head and that I'm fine. I'm not so bad. Best is to believe in yourself because that's all you'll have. Friend come and go but you are forever with you.

i tried this and now i have a restraining order :(

I'm really glad other people have summarized How to Win Friends and Influence People; I couldn't get through it because it started to make me feel like a sleezy car salesman.

Also, it is very American to respond to "how are you/how's it going" more like a greeting than an actual wellness check. About a dozen years ago, a foreign exchange student pointed this out. He stopped and expected a conversation from the other person but they always kept walking by.
