Chapter 8: Party Hacks
- Mixing alcohol with Diet Coke will get you drunker than if you mix it with regular Coke.
- Four words to get free alcohol at a party: "I've never been drunk."
- If you suspect someone's checking you out, yawn. If they yawn back, they were. Yawning is visually contagious.
- Sprinkle salt on a napkin before putting a drink on it to prevent it from sticking to your cup.
- If you ever have to clean up vomit, put ground coffee on it first. It takes away the smell and dehydrates it. Then, you can just sweep it up.
- Use lollipops to stir mixed drinks and give them extra flavor.
- You can clear a room full of cigarette smoke in about a minute by spinning a wet towel around.
- Want someone's number at a party? Take a picture with them and ask them to send it to you.
- When meeting someone for the first time, ask them what they like to do rather than what they do. It'll get them excited and make for better conversation.
- Cheap party speaker: If you want to amplify the sound from your smartphone when you're listening to music, put it in a plastic Solo cup.
- Buy your alcohol at Costco or Sam's Club. You don't need a membership and it's usually 25-35% off.
