PUA Of 1947

This paragraph (from a 1947 letter from Neal Cassady to Jack Kerouac) reads a lot like that blather that modern pickup artists use when they are bragging or trying to sell a seminar video:

Without the slightest preliminaries of objective remarks (what’s your name? where are you going? etc.) I plunged into a completely knowing, completely subjective, personal & so to speak “penetrating her core” way of speech; to be shorter (since I’m getting unable to write) by 2 AM I had her swearing eternal love, complete subjectivity to me & immediate satisfaction. I, anticipating even more pleasure, wouldn’t allow her to blow me on the bus, instead we played, as they say, with each other.
