Rejection therapy

I was unsatisfied with both the "official" deck of cards and ideas I found around the web so I created my own list. I will add to this if I can find any more.

* Ask a random person for their phone number without introducing yourself, explaining why, or anything.

* Ask people for money.

* Ask some store employee if it's alright for you to explore some employee-only area of the store, e.g. their back room, or behind a door marked "authorized personnel only".

* In general, go somewhere you're not supposed to be where someone is likely to discover you and kick you out.

* When you're leaving Point A for Point B, ask a stranger at Point A out of the blue if they'd like to travel to Point B with you.

*”Do you have a minute to talk about [insert issue]?" Save some time by inventing your own issue.

* Ask someone on the street if you can have your picture taken with them.

* Ask for hugs/neck massages.

* Come to some sort of event. Ask if you can give a quick presentation on something before the main event.

* Ask someone to tie your shoes.

* Ask to trade clothes.

* Ask people to give you a ride to wherever you’re going.

* Ask for a bite/sip of someones’ food/drink.

* Ask someone to sing or dance right there in the street with you.

* Try to buy people’s personal effects, i.e. watches, glasses, phone, for a dollar

*Try to sell your own personal effects.

* Ask someone to rate your theatrical death.

* Ask to cut in line (start at the back and see how far forward you can get!)

* Ask to have a staring contest or thumb wrestling match.

* Ask for a discount on a purchase, or a free sample.

* Ask where people are going, then ask if you can come.

*Ask if you can pick someone up (if they are smaller) or if they can pick you up (if they are bigger).
