"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Mercedes AMG E55 is faster than both w/ its 469 hp...lol

CLK 650, now that will rape just about anything on the highway when it is around.

I agree with Vincent!

C6 vette vs. SRT-10 in the straight line till 100, driver's race, anywhere else the C6 vette will school the V-10 Truck...

I've pretty much owned BMW's and Corvettes exclusively for the last several years.

Both cars are highly rated for good reason.

The Viper is a good car, but it doesn't have active handling, its interior gets too hot, and it rides like a truck.

Give me a C6 or a Z06 anyday over a Viper.

Best bang for the buck: Corvette
Best Daily Driver: BMW
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

You obviously know very little about both vehicles. Just because its 500 hp v-10 5100lb truck does not mean it would beat a 400hp 3200lb car.

Look at the specs for both vehicles.

Though they may be priced the same, I'd rather get the vette any day of the week :cool:
The 6th gen Z06 is going to come in at around 2800 lbs. with some fiber carbon body parts,and will be putting out 500 HP and 500 ft. lbs. of torque.

World class car at about 1/3rd of the price.

Sweet.

I haven't heard about them using carbon fiber but I haven't been reading up about much lately. I would have heard about it from another forum I view though. I highly doubt they'd switch from fiberglass which they've used on every single car.

Plus switching from fiberglass to carbon fiber MIGHT save you 100 lbs. So I doubt 2800 lbs will ever happen.

Or you could look up 0-60, 0-100, 1/4 mile, 0-60-0, etc, for them and still see that I'm right.
