Continuing the popularity advice, Tim explains the importance of appearing hungry but not clingy, having resources like a car or a house to offer, and ruthlessly cutting old friends who resent your success.
- Tim on the key to success: be hungry, not desperate, and always seem like you have other plans.
- Be the first person with a car, drugs, a gun, bullets, or a house where people can party.
- Figure out what a popular group is missing and become that thing, whether funny, good-looking, or blandly reliable.
- Tim is on keto and was denied a smoothie but approved for an egg breakfast with Grove LA and spinach.
- Loser friends have to go because they only bond with you over mutual failure and will resent your success.
- Once you improve, old friends will claim you've changed and complain about how everyone sucks, so the friendship dies.
- Hollywood is written by losers who fetishize loser stories and make them into king and queen narratives.
- There's one Fiona Apple, and the rest of you are eating cat litter on your floor like a cat.
- Popular people from Hollywood either hit a ceiling or become Logan Paul, George W. Bush, Cardi B, Donald Trump, or Tim.
