"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.
Best Film of 2005 - so far.....

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Oh wait, I almost forgot. Kung Fu Hustle was good too. It was definately better than that Star Wars nonsense.

Come on people! J-Lo falling over alot, people walking into doors, dialogue written by a 6 year old, poo jokes, women being 'cooky' & clumbsy, men being silly & being the butt of most the jokes, more falling over, at least 5 genuine 'head in hand cringe-worthy' moments...
It's got all the ingrediants of the GREATEST FILM OF ALL TIME.
In ten years time, THIS will be the movie that everyone will still be talking about. It's what the '00's will be remembered for. It defines the whole decade!

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I saw a film about a fvcking zebra who thought he was a horse that was better than Star Wars.
I only really watch comedies and I haven't seen a good comedy yet this year - though theres a Vaughn and Wilson flick out soon which should hopefully change that.
"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 agree. It was worse than Vogon poetry...Originally posted by Vincent
No it wasn't that movie utterly raped everything that made the radio series/books great.
