"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Just lock down forever and let big daddy government take care of you. No guarantee of a vaccine. No cure. Just hide forever.
Universal Basic Income is an even bigger pipe dream than Medicare for All...... The ultra wealthy would never allow UBI because it would eliminate a cheap labor force.....

I am concerned that when this is all over, a lot of us are going to have a weaker immune system because we've been avoiding exposure to everyday germs so much.

There is not much incentive of a cheap labour force if you still have to visit a food bank to get fed despite having a job. Look at all the people lining up for miles for free food in your country not long into this crises. No savings. People may rethink the point of coming back to work of there is nothing to lose to not go back to work anyway. They collectively see their value as essential workers and if they quit then the whole society will fall. The ultra rich wont help grow food, only farmers do this.
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
That plan would only work with closed borders.... As long as the borders are open, there will always be a steady flow of cheap labor for the ultra rich to exploit.... Please look up what Neo Liberalism is.....

Not if you treat them badly enough. Trump is closing the borders and deporting people. So his policy must be good because it would enhance the value of people remaining in the country who does this type of work and decide to unionize.

Shame to see you buy into the bs
And what do you think will happen once Trump's term ends....????.... The democrats will just open up the borders again and allow the free flow of cheap labor (neo liberalism).....
It's funny how leftist voters cant comprehend that the economic policy that they want is in direct conflict with their social policy (pro open borders)....
There are only 2 logical options:
1) A socialized society with closed borders
2) An open border society with free markets( no social safety nets)
High wages are in conflict with open borders.... What is so hard to understand about this...???...

Continue to be a sheep. Soon you will be arguing in favor of being microchipped by Bill Gates so that the government can track your every move.

You telling me that?
I'm awake since 2006.
Virus is a biological weapon, whether it was man made or just happened naturally does not matter, it could be used to replace cash with virtual currency and virtual wallets - same exact function as chip only without implanting. Obviously under pretense that cash spreads virus.
However, if you close your eyes on the virus and pretend that it does not exist, it will not prevent you from getting it.
The virus is real, it's out there, and it kills.
By ignoring it, you making it worst. By being an idiot you play right in hands of illuminati by
a) increasing the death toll, and
b) bigger death toll is a better excuse to get rid of cash and replace it with virtual currency and virtual wallets.
People like you are tools in hands of illuminati. You ignore the dangers and spread the disease, government can only react to this thread with more restrictions to protect the citizens.
I can not believe people like you exist.
2M dead from the virus or 10M homeless, which is worse....????...
