"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.

"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.

“Now that marijuana is legal in Washington State I don’t have an income,” Hoggert said. “So capitalizing on my boyfriend’s fame is how I plan to make money.”"
I am not sure if it is because of changes the past 10 years, or because I grew older, but I started seeing a lot of random people selling weed everywhere. some people smoke in the streets of NYC in broad daylight and offer to sell.. Lots of college dealers, an insane amount of high school dealers...
A lot of them continued dealing as we grew up and they didn't have any other career. Wonder what is going to happen to all of them when marijuana is legalized in NY. Really interesting to see what will happen to the established drug markets.
