"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

"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.

It's a good thing MMA has shown the world what martial arts techniques really work in a fight. Not this choreographed nonsense. In real life, I don't care how good you are, you ain't going to fight off 10 black belts at once. Before MMA, people thought crap like this was doable.

The fight is cool, I didn't say anything about it being real. MMA is top in the ring, but in the streets it has some weaknesses, and this is coming from a MMA fan.

I don't care how good you are, you ain't going to fight off 10 average joes at once.

As for the OP, sorry that stuff isnt my thing. Quit dancing around and just tackle the guy, get it over with! haha.
 

"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.

I like Donnie Yen a lot.
And it was great to see a cool extrapolation of WC in a movie.
I like this.

Not a big fan of wing chun so i didn't like it. It also amuses me that they don't just rush the guy all at once and someone grabs him.

However, the scene was somewhat cool, but I like Bruce Lee's and Jet Li's scenes better.

Bruce Lee's seemed more original... probably because it WAS the original.
