How to be fabulous on a low budget.

  • Marry a Marine. You'll get tons of mileage out of the Full Metal Jacket questions. You and your entire family are mythical creatures.
  • Insist that everyone call you by your wrestling name. Correct them when they fail to do so.
  • Employ the "bend and snap" as often as possible.
  • Say "sir" and "m'am." All the time. Even when you're a grown up. This throws most people off their game.
  • If you feel uncomfortable in an elevator on the sidewalk with a stranger (particularly a male), look him dead in the eye and say "Don't I know your mama?"
  • Live in a neighborhood full of minivans and drive a BMW sedan. Try not to flex your handling power, though... no one likes a showoff.
  • Buy when everyone else is selling... and sell when everyone else is buying.
  • Send your friends cards in the mail (the actual mail) randomly. For no reason.
  • Do something genuinely good for someone else that won't benefit you at all. Your intrigue rating will soar.
  • Never forget how to do the Running Man. If you have to practice weekly, do it.
  • Talk to retired service members. In most cases they are way cooler than you are. And you can be fab by association.
  • Know what you don't know. People like to be asked genuine questions. It's engaging.
  • Challenge yourself to learn something new and difficult. It's humbling.... and even humility makes you more enticing.
  • Be nice to customer service people on the telephone. No one does that, so you'll achieve individuality right off the bat (and might just get what you want in the process).
  • Dare to be ghetto sometimes.
  • Hang out with people who are smarter than you.
  • Know who your REAL friends are. The rest don't matter and will drain your fab status in no time. Nerd
