Okay, so I tried 1 drop of A314 and 20 mcgs of TAK today. I had two interesting things happen.
I combined the two, wondering if the TAK would be enough to sort of ‘melt’ the situation, so that the ‘distance’ created by A314 would be overcome. Kinda how like cheese melts and conforms to the shape of whatever it’s on. I must be hungry..
Anyways, it sort of worked, but at the cost of unbalancing the A314 I think. There was one middle aged black guy at the car wash who stopped cleaning cars to ask me if I went to some other school. He first asked me if I went to school in Berkeley, then asked if I went to somethingrather high school. I guess I reminded him of someone?
Anyways, they had put me down for an ultra wash, and it was a couple more bucks, but I didn’t wanna pay for it, and I had asked for the basic wash, which it clearly was not.
I speak to the guy who wrote up the ticket, and tell him he wrote the wrong wash. He tells me I should have been more clear. I respond by telling him that I asked for a ‘basic’ wash and I figured that meant just inside and out, not all the extras. He apparently took offense at this, as he sort of called me a cheapskate by saying ‘well next time tell me the ‘cheapest’ wash’. Dick.
Anyhow, I get back, my car’s done. Some other guy gets up thinking they’re calling him, as I’m not sure since my doors are wide open. I thought they weren’t done yet. I figure out that my car is done, and walk up to the guy handling my car. It happens to be that black guy from before.
He seemed confused on what to do when I walked up. After a moment, I gave him my receipt and he clicked into gear. Walked over to the passenger side, leaned in, wiped that side down one more time while remarking ‘they’re always rushing us, they don’t give us time to do the job properly.’ I thanked him and was off.
So, one guy had the audacity to underhandedly call me a cheapskate, another guy was really friendly and helpful. The addition TAK does strange things to A314. Maybe too much?
I applied another 20 mcgs (40 mcgs total) and went to go eat. Seemed to get interest from several asian girls in the restaurant. There was one group of Chinese girls behind me, being led by a Chinese American host. A little solid eye contact goes a long way, and across language barriers. I caught the eye of one girl, X. I didn’t talk to them, so this could all be speculation, but I was sitting down facing the pick up point waiting for my order. The group of girls is waiting in front of me. The host is facing the same direction as me, and the girls are facing him. I catch the eyes of all the other girls too. Seems like they’re observing me for some reason? Probably cause I’m watching them. 
Here’s where I kinda went, hmm? Another guy they know comes into the restaurant and starts talking to the host. This is while I’m sort of staring off in the space between everyone. Girl X steps into my line of site. Almost immediately the new guy steps over, takes a wide stance and completely blocks off any line of sight. I basically have an ass in my face. X is definitely the ‘prize’ in the group so to speak.
Other than that and some other random things that could just be considered speculation, I just zoned out a lot.
My conclusion would be, if you add any TAK to A314, add less than 15 mcgs, unless you’ve got more you need to smooth out. I think A314 doesn’t really need too much of the ‘blanketing’ effect of TAK, but I think it does help approachability.
