The Wingman's Handbook

The wingman is arguably the noblest creature to ever step into a barroom. Who else, with cavalier disregard for his personal reputation, is so willing to throw himself upon the cruel mercies of a brazen man-hater, just so his buddy can hook up with a sorority girl with big gazongas? Who else, with just a hint of a grimace, will selflessly dirty dance with a creature so hideous that no amount of hard liquor will wash the stain from his memory? Who else, especially if he’s loaded to the gills, will stand in the deepest depths of hell just so a pal can climb up his back into hook-up heaven? Whose sterling motto is, “You are going to so owe me, dude.”?

None else but the wingman, the King Leonidas of the saloon.

What a Wingman Does:

And just as that brave (some say suicidally insane) Spartan king and his hundred warriors laid down their lives against a hundred thousand Persians, so will the wingman, with the right amount of prodding, recklessly lunge into battle against foes twice his size and half his intellect, fully knowing there is no way in hell that the night will end well.

It usually goes down like this:

A male (the flight leader) spots an attractive female (the bombing target) across the bar. But alas, she is not alone. She is paired with a tragically less attractive friend (the cock blocker). And they seem quite close, so close that the BT is unlikely to abandon her CB for a guy she just met. The FL knows he’ll never be able to successfully complete his bombing run without proper air cover, and this is where the wingman comes into play. The wingman will engage the CB and pin her down long enough for the FL to finish his run, and hopefully bomb his target back to his bedroom. Of course, there’s much more to the task than distracting the CB while the FL makes his move. Wingman skills have been honed and passed down since someone decided women should be allowed into bars. Strategies have evolved and tactics have been polished to the point that the wingman has become a super-specialized warrior in the eternal Battle of the Sexes. And like all specialists, they’ve developed their own lingo.

Wingman Jargon

Air superiority: When the flight team has established a comfortable conversation with the BT and CB.

BT bombing target: The hot chick.

Banzai shot: Much as kamikaze pilots were given a ceremonial shot of sake before being sealed in their cockpits, the flight leader should buy his wingman a shot prior to a mission.

Betty: An alliteration of Bombing Target.

Bogie: A friend of the BT that has not yet been identified as a CB.

CB (cock blocker): The hot girl’s troublesome friend and sworn enemy of the wingman. Also called a bandit.

Dogfight: Dancing with a CB.

FL (flight leader): also called the bombardier.

Flak: Snide remarks made by a CB in an attempt to drive the flight team from the skies.

Flying blind: When the wingman indulges in so much in-flight refuelling he jeopardizes the mission.

Getting pinged: Initial eye contact with a BT.

In-flight refuelling: When a wingman orders a flurry of shots to help him complete his mission.

Kamikaze mission: When the wingman is likely to end up in the clutches of the CB.

Landing gear: A wingman’s self-respect; if a FL asks his wingman to “leave his landing gear behind,” he’s preparing the wingman for a flak storm or kamikaze mission.

POW: Prisoner of a Warthog; to go home with a CB, the supreme sacrifice of a wingman.

Pig Alley: A play off of the Korean War’s infamous MIG Alley, this describes a BT swarming with CBs.

Shite leader: A would-be flight leader without the skills to complete the mission.

Shoot and scoot: An attempt to engage with more than one CB at a time.

Tail gunning: When the wingman disgracefully abandons his air cover duties and attempts his own bombing run on the BT.

Yank and bank: An attempt by the FL to maneuver the BT away from the wingman and CB for some one-on-one time.

Answer 1

long but funny~

Answer 2

Well, I always pictured myself as having a large posse, rather than just a single wingman. Posses always attract a lot of attention and make you look really interesting! I'd be like P-Diddy except without the clothes and the bling. I'd want all of my contacts that could come to be with me.

Answer 3

haha
that's great
very funny
