Quote - Spoon Guy is also hanging around with an obvious weirdo.  This makes Spoon Guy look better by comparison.  Possibly this is an example of the Hegelian Dialectic in use.  At any rate, it could be a helpful trick.

Ah, wrong way round. Apparently, we tend to judge people by the company we keep. We aren't compared to them; we're averaged with them. What I mean is that according to more than a few psychology studies, the more good looking our friends are, the more good looking we appear to be. The opposite is also true.

In other words, wanna catch a nice fish? Hang out with people who are well equipped fishermen. {edit} Oops. I mean, hang out with fishermen who are properly equipped to catch fish. {/edit}

Wanna catch a babe? Hang out with rich, good looking, charming, well-dressed guys. And if you can't manage that, at least leave the banana at home. ;)
