"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.

Alarm growing from excessive non COVID deaths happening

Of course most hospitalized in for COVID-19 will be vaccinated. IIRC you’re also in metro NYC (I am in NJ), which has vaccination rates of ~80% that have had at least one dose. That is deliberately misleading to suggest a vaccinated person is more likely to end up in the hospital than an unvaccinated person.
not really covid will stay, like the flu now, and like the flu when colonist came and killed all natives, because they never had that before, not other way around, survival of strongest, the vaccines are there to train your imune system to fight against it, but against a virus who mutated fast don't work much

Whatever you say dude. I'm so glad that you also treat patients like me and my colleagues. Feel free to come up and help from NYC. The train is about 45 mins. Ask for PA Rick in the ER. Please bring your certifications too.

Your statements require context. If 82% of all Connecticut residents have been vaccinated, why did you mention that a majority of COVID-19 hospital cases are vaccinated?
 

"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.

I can't. I just can't argue with people who cannot read my posts clearly. Believe whatever you wish Mr. Rollin.

This was one of the points I tried to make...all these places canceling appointments and procedures for non-COVID related things was going to catch up with them.

Between people left untreated with non-COVID issues for lengthy period of times and people suffering from COVID caused issues over the next 5 years, the excess death totals are going to be staggering and far in excess of what they expect most likely.

But but the flu. Shutdown your business. Let's print off money. Parasites gonna parasite. Let's inject random nonsense into people. Let's threaten their employment.

Does anybody else want to climb the corporate world?

BRB guys, buying crypto.

This isn't going to help long term either

 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Shutting down the world cause someone has the flu? If previous generations were around and told the world got shut down over a bad flu they would laugh. This is what previous generations fought and died for?

Since you claim that the vaccines work, why have there been more deaths since the vaccine has been rolled out than before? And please don't use the unvaccinated in your explanation. I'm highly curious how you will spin it seeing how you consider yourself an expert on "science".
Well…. If you want the truth..

It's rubbish. As is hiding side effects or hospitalization following the stupidity. They are destroying the monetary system. The saddest part is that America seems to be the last hold out particularly in a few States. There's countries so cucked they are not allowed to leave their home. In any other times, heads would be on a stick.
 

"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.

My post is this thread was deleted. I'm guessing sosuave mods are now censoring any opinion contrary to the preferred narrative on COVID?

Clearly seems to be the case to me.

Mention one President three times and another one once in the same post makes it a political statement. The Forum political rules are posted at the AE section top.

I disagree as I was stating facts but I'll leave it at that.
