"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.

Badass martial art movie clip

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

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.
 

"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 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.
