"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.

A heist would be fun

I love watching action movies, especially movies that center around a heist. Such movies as Heat, The Score, The usual Suspects, The Town, and so on.

I think it would be soo fun to be in a heist. Can you only imagine. Driving around in a $100,000 dollar car, wearing Armani suits, talking like Robert Dinero. Then you plan an elaborate scheme to inherit a Picasso painting from an art museum that's worth 100 million dollars. Then you get the best spy equipment possible from some guy named Dominick. You spend 1 month casing the joint while smoking cuban cigars and eating cuban food across the street in your big body Benz. Then the night finally comes and you use your black mission impossible suit and infared night vision goggles. You have a nerdy but trustworthy computer hacker hack the mainframe of the art museum to bypass all the surveillance equipment. You confidently get in and out of the art museum without a glitch with painting in hand. Then you sell the painting to the Russians for 80 milllion dollars.

Im not saying I would do it or anything. Don't get that idea. I'm just saying that it would be one hell of a ride!

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

I think that regurgitating Dane Cook jokes is one of the lamest things a guy can do.

Of course, that's why the Grand Theft Auto video games are so popular.

I imagine heisting has gone the way of video tape rental store owner in terms of making money though. I don't know how it is overseas but her in America the arrest rate for bank robberies is second only to murder. The quality of security has risen so much that non-violent robbery is next to impossible. The penalties are severe too so not only will you likely be caught but you will suffer severely when you do.

If you want to be a scumbag knucklehead dirtball criminal I highly recommend drug dealing (especially prescriptions), financial crimes/identity theft, or computer crimes/phishing. The scumbag knucklehead dirtballs that I know (and that I snitch on when the time comes) tend to do those nowadays.
