It was a fucking long time ago for me.

I usually charm someone whenever I'm down the pub and have had a couple of glasses of wine.  Two glasses is the perfect balance between introverted awkwardness and extroverted obnoxiousness.  Sadly, I've never been one to drink in moderation and so I usually end up offending the same person who I had previously charmed earlier that evening.

Been a while since I charmed, but I duped someone not that long ago.

Danger Man

About 30 minutes ago.

That's sales for you.

2014.

Last few months of that year I could do no wrong.

Then I blew it.

It was probably at the Winter Solstice. The moon was in an auspicious phase, and Isis looked down at me with one approving white eye as I cast the knuckle bones of a child. Mr Hotherstall severely regretted that rude remark to me about my clothing as he croaked and shifted uneasily on his new legs in a slimy pool that eve.

In Portugal a couple of years ago. You know how the foreigns like it when you speak their language? I was on holiday in some Anglo enclave, and I was buying some tourist tat. The girl had a face like a split arse with all the rest of the customers, but as soon as I sidled up to the counter and went "Olá" she damn near nearly shit. When I said "Obrigado" after the purchase she may as well have come all over the place.

Define charm. Make them laugh? Let you touch their in betweens? Bought those speakers from your van?

Typically the confidence boost of charming one person results in me being really charming for a while until I get tired and my mood falls off a cliff for about a year.

Generally speaking I'm far too guarded to ever be charming.

Job interview, about 6 weeks ago. I know it was that long ago because they demanded references up front before sending out an unconditional offer and it took that long for their HR department to get a reference out my last but one employer. In the end I had to go cap-in-hand to an ex-colleague and ask them to do it.

Asking your line manager for a reference without a resignation letter in your hand really isn't the one.

I asked a girl at work why she wasn't wearing makeup today. She said she woke up too late to put any on. I said she doesn't need it anyway. She did a little click click sound and giggled, which basically means she wants me I think!

She was probably recording you on her phone, she is gonna #metoo your ass.

I charm cats daily, and babies at least once a week. Copied a baby's head movements today and made her laugh, they are so easily pleased.

The clicking suggests yer man might actually have been attempting to seduce a dolphin.
