Lasting Impressions

All right boys, there's something you need to know. I understand that pissing contests are a pretty big thing in your lives, and it helps establish pecking order among others of a similar genetic disposition (read: Y chromosome bearing), but it doesn't do squat for me.

What I mean by this is trying to show me how much you know or how handy you are with a spanner, instrument or pointy weapon doesn't impress me as much as it would another person of your gender. If anything, it turns me off. Take the amount of repulsion I have in that situation and multiply it with the inverse percentage relevance it has to the current conversation. Don't forget to carry the feeling of aggrandizement coming from explaining what is apparently an exceedingly profound subject for little ole me.

In short, if you want to impress me, don't make so much of an effort to. I'm usually more impressed by people who are amazing without having to advertise it all the time.

It just occurred to me that I could make this advice simpler yet, so, for your edification...

Be humble.
