AI Thread Summary
In the chapter "You Just Ask Them?" from "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman," the author recounts a controversial experience where he adopts a brash attitude to successfully engage with a girl. He reflects on the surprising outcome, noting that it contradicted his upbringing and expectations about social interactions.

The narrative raises questions about social dynamics and the variability of human relationships.
