The Flyer Codex (Part 2)

This next part of the Codex will the various defence techniques individuals take on to avoid/negate the efforts of flyer distributors. There are many interesting skills involved, some more developed than others, but all unique unto themselves and all deserving equal coverage. ^_^

~=Defenses=~

1. The Smiling Rejector

This skill utilises the obvious guilt-inducing effect of the human smile. It involves smiling used together with a slight shake of one's head to indicate a somewhat cheerful avoidance and resistance towards the flyer in hand.

2. The Talk-to-the Hander

This is a fairly straightforward form of rejection. A open palm is waved at the distributor's face, and that is supposed to indicate, oh-so-subtlely 'NO'. Usually used in tandem with a slight smile to soften the otherwise rude gesture. It can also be further made worse when coupled with a sour face.

3. The Liar

This is a very blatant, and usually anger-inducing, defence. It usually involves saying "I've got one already!", but the funny thing is that there is NO other flyer distributor giving out flyers for a 20metre radius! So you can safely conclude that this person may actually be a compulsive liar...heehee. When using this technique, must be very very careful hor? Cos' can generate quite a lot of negative karma you know?

4. The Floor Starer

The floor suddenly becomes very VERY interesting! These people will stare at the floor, and refuse to make eye contact. It is effective, but it is dangerous for the user as it may result in HEAD ON collision with other people, pillars, and if you're unlucky enough, oncoming traffic.

5. The Aura Generator

These beings are highly evolved because they can generate strong protective auras of anger/irritation/annoyance/杀气. These auras usually ward off most distributors and even the most 'garang' of distributors will not attempt to approach these individuals without a good evasive countermethod, or very VERY THICK SKIN. Hahaha...
