I'm sure these can work but I get the feeling there's a bit of psuedo-science involved.

#5 What my non-idiot friends would say to each other after the 1 cent bid: "I'll give you 50 cents if you don't bid any higher."

Your friends may be stupid. But then again, you're just reposting.

#2 Also works when you try to go the same way round someone walking the other way. Just pick a side with your eyes early, rarely fails

3 is accurate. It's how I get from my NYC apartment in the west 40s to my office in the mid 30s without killing 400 tourists a day.

It's better to look up at the sky, even people on their phones notice that you are not paying attention. Staring ahead doesn't work.

It works fine if you're also holding a gun

That's because people are staring at their phones.

It works if it’s just two people headed towards each other. Avoid the awkward dance by looking over one of their shoulders

I live in NYC. I navigate crowded stations everyday & this works about 90% of the time (the 10% is people not paying attention). Key is 1/2

To commit to the stare. It's tempting to look at the incoming person, but don't! Keep looking past their shoulders! 2/2

Pretty sure that broccoli trick works better with dementia patients than kids. Kids just say "zero."

Well, if you bid 1 cent and agree to split the profits with everyone else (if they don't bid), then you've won.

I would be the third person to bid and just be like "I bid 1 dollar for that one dollar" just to see the two of them go crazy.

until they outbid you by 1 penny and you owe a dollar and get nothing in return.

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

And then they'll start to outbid each other. And now they can't ever win. I'm fine with losing 1 dollar to see 2 greedy people go nuts

They are a construct made up by our minds. What is "immoral" can change in a decade or a year. Morals never were there to begin with.
