"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.

i'm not a heavy smoker but when i'm stressed out i do chain smoke. i might run through 1 no more than 2 packs a month though. i just bought a new pack of cigs and the last one lasted me 3 weeks. i like to smoke blacks when i'm drinking heavy drinks like bourbon as well, maybe 4-5 of those a month.

i actually picked the habit up from my wife i didn't smoke at all until about 2 years ago. she smokes when she's drinking and when she's pissed lol

I smoke marlbro classics.

any other smokers? if so how often and how much?
 

"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.

Lol tits.

I smoke a pack a day. If that is all you smoke, you should have little problem quitting. I would if I were you.

Bourbon? Quit lying. You know it was purple drank.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Any other facebook chick lingo words you want to use? Creepy perhaps?

Come on backbreaker , you spent the best part of the first 6 years of your posts here subtlely pushing the "I is sooo oppressed by the white debbil" meme and NOW you have a (fake) problem with jokes giving some back? It was either that or rib you for being an attention seeking used car salesman, which didn't seem to fit.

I gave up smokes and booze 1 year and 27 days ago. Give or take.

If I wanted to smoke, I'd grow my own. I went to college with a kid from Holland who brought over some really good sh!t. It was like cherry-flavored weed. People who didn't smoke were bumming cigs off the guy.

The products the tobacco companies peddle are only part tobacco. The rest are additives designed to make you smoke more. Marlboros are to tobacco what high fructose corn syrup is to sugar - an ultra-processed way to make something not good for you even worse.

Tobacco causes cancer because it is radioactive, which happens because it uptakes massive amounts of phosphorous from the soil as it grows. I don't think it's very far off before there is GMO tobacco that blocks the phosphorous uptake so it doesn't cause cancer.
