"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
I do not concur. Chain restaurants offer consistency. Something that independently owned places do not always give you.Stud said:Just about every chain restaurant is overrated. Find a locally owned and operated restaurant if you want good food.
I would suggest anyone traveling overseas to go with chain restaurants. Breks in Italy, Lido's in Latvia, Yolki-Palki in Moscow, anything from Mirovaya Karta in Kiev, Double Coffees in Latvia, Ukraine, Belarus, Lithuania, Estonia, or Cili Pizzas in Latvia, Lithuania, or Ukraine. Those are all good safe choices. McDonalds out of America can be quite nice as well. Just go to one on a weekend night and try to get a seat. Those places are popping with all kinds of folks. Nothing like the American version. I have taken a number of beautiful young things out on dates to McDonalds! There is a McDonalds right by the Kreshchatik Metro in Kiev. Try it on a Sunday night. Yes, Sunday night. Better than any American bar I have ever been to. Don't ask why, but Sunday night.

chili's literary uses sex to sale food. The food is not great. it's not bad but it's not great. But a bunch of 19-20 year old tight ass perky tits waitresses, you can sale just about anything.

Most of those middle-market sitdown corporate chains have really crappy food.
Exceptions? Texas Roadhouse is all I can think of.

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
Word. Most chains like Applebee's or TGIF's go through workers and cooks like every day so you never know when your food is sh1t or tastes good.Julius_Seizeher said:Most of those middle-market sitdown corporate chains have really crappy food.

I just wrote a long post about my hate of chain restaurants and lost the entire thing. That is all.
I love restaurants and lived the restaurant life. I worked in the industry for a number of years over the past decade, in a handful of restaurants, and I've had roommates who were co-workers. I enjoyed many nights hanging out and having drinks with co-workers after a long tough shift. I've heard all their gripes and complaints over their customers and management, along with their genuine praise of good dishes. There are definitely differences between working in a corporate restaurant and independently owned restaurant, but I would say there's not much of a real difference from a consumer perspective. Corporatization does tend to lead to higher prices and having too many store locations, but there's a greater emphasis on consistency and the quality of the food itself can still be pretty darn good, depending on how much you're willing to pay for the dining experience.
When you dine out, you're really paying for the experience (along with the mundane costs of business). Waiters and waitresses are performers, memorizing every ingredient in every menu item, memorizing descriptions, memorizing the wine list, all the steps of service, and imbuing their performances with their personality and professionalism, in an suitably sociable environment. Restaurants are a communal social ritual. While people can and do cook good meals in their homes for a fraction of the cost, restaurants are fulfilling of people's need to be socially ritualistic animals. Combine this with differences in socioeconomics, whether certain restaurants are overrated is relative to their social class.
Chili's is a one star restaurant (I think). It's at the bottom of the food chain except for zero star restaurants which are mom & pop. So, I would beg to differ with Chili's being 'overrated' since it's ranked at the near bottom of restaurants. The five star ranking system is inversely exponential in such that four and five star restaurants are as rare as a black swan, and three stars is the best most people will ever be able to dine in. Find restaurants which are Zagat rated and you should be reliably satisfied, regardless whether it's independently or corporately owned.
With that said, I personally prefer ethnic foods like Japanese, Greek, Turkish, and ethnic restaurants are generally independently owned.

I've never tried Texas Roadhouse but I can think of Brio Tuscan Grille, Bucca di Beppo, PF Changs, and Elephant Bar, which I think are all two star restaurants.Julius_Seizeher:
