I have long resigned myself to the fact that I cannot cut it as a charismatic man in Chris Pratt's way. It requires a quit wit and a sense of humor that I obviously lack. Alternatively I developed an unique way, which doesn't go against my grain, to build friendship through everyday boring conversations. Does it sound contradictory? :wink:

(There are many roads leading to Rome, I guess we just need to find the one that fits our nature. :mrgreen:)

Rock's chosen topic is quite interesting. Besides through self-amusement and reframing negative into positive training, I think charisma sometimes is instinct that kind of charm cannot be described by words. See you guys there to discuss this mysterious character.

@Way, you are right. It is a mysterious characteristic.

@Kooper, your way has been proven to be very effective, as everyone in Yoyo can see here. It's hard to copy, though.
