"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.

It's not just that but TVs purpose or advertising at least is to blow up that ego so you'll buy their "status" products. Buy this product and you will be AWESOME!!

Watched the first four episodes and the show is amazing... I hope it doesn't lose steam throughout the season. I especially liked the one where they tend to stereotype and group people according to their age group. I definitely feel they can also air one about the portrayal of race on television as well, cause there is an enormous amount on they could do he can do on that topic.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
