4 simple steps to popularity.

Below is a nationally accepted, personally acclaimed and neteromerically useful guide to popularity (especially useful in replacement of your cheesy pick-up lines.) *not endorsed by the agency for public health and emotional satisfaction or the D.U.M.B.O. foundation (district union for mental baggage and outcasts)
#1. Be Cool, don't be yourself.... no one wants to like someone average, you gotta be gifted/talented/wealthy/beautiful. If you can't fulfill any of these, move on to step 2.
#2. Hang with Cool people. Sure the attention isn't on you (but it wasn't anyways was it?) Cool people are just cool, enough said. If you're a loner move on to step 3.
#3. Ok Loner, wallow in self pity and make your life look like a clogged toilet. Someone will feel sorry for you and show some sympathy, then you'll be popular at least with someone. *If you happened to self-pity too much and lost your sympathetic friend move on to step four.
#4. How Lame can you get? Try Step one again... If you come back to this step again you've got serious issues- join a support group.
