T-Rex: Hey, raise your hand if you ever thought it'd be nice if strangers would just like you a lot for no reason!
T-Rex: ...What's that?
T-Rex: EVERY HAND IN THE WORLD JUST GOT RAISED??
T-Rex: Good news, people attached to those hands: this thing is possible! All you need is CHARISMA. And it turns out that's really easy! Just get great at conversation, eye contact, confidence, body language, humour, engagement, and at having a fun, approachable, and empathic presence!
T-Rex: Tada!
Utahraptor: Is that all?
T-Rex: Yep! It's THAT easy!
T-Rex: Those nine skills are LITERALLY all you need for likeability! And each can take work, sure, but ANYONE can learn one of them in a decade, tops. So by the time you're ninety, you'll be ready for ANY social situation the world can throw at you!!
Utahraptor: Assuming I start working on my charm as a baby.
T-Rex: Oh yes. If you were born an uncharismatic baby, then it's MUCH simpler to not care if people like you!! You will be beyond fear, beyond shame; society will find itself impotent against your fully-realized self.
T-Rex: You will, at last, be free
