"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.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

From that article:
“They hope to test the substance in human cells but gave no timeline.”

I think, too little, too late…
yeah it would be lucrative money wise if they had a timeline for it.
 

"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.

Interesting article with snake venom that kills covid. What do you guys think?
Assuming it works, which pharmaceutical company is going to make money from it? Because I don't think the snakes are going to run a trial. There is already a drug which has been found to be effective against Covid (Ivermectin), but since the Pharma companies can't make money from it, it's not just ignored but actively supressed.

New Mexico reports two deaths from ivermectin

The media can't mention Ivermectin without lying about what it is. Ivermectin is an antiviral drug, not a "horse dewormer" or whatever else they like to call it. If people are dying because they took the wrong doses, the blame for that is on those that prevent doctors from prescribing appropriate doses.

Ivermectin was invented in 1975, and has been used as an anti parasitic since it’s discovery. It is FDA approved for that use. It has shown some anti-viral properties in research done years ago.

It is off-label for any other use.

The CDC, EMA and WHO have been very clear that no research has proven its effectiveness as an anti-viral.

When used on label for its prescribed it is very safe at the correct dosages. Imbeciles thinking it wil cure cases of Covid overdosed on it. Darwin approves.

repeat there Is no credible research that provesits effectiveness as an anti-viral.

Period, full stop.

The idea that ivermectin could be a coronavirus treatment began gaining steam in spring 2020, when Australian researchers observed that the medicine killed the virus in-vitro. So does bleach, would you ingest it or inject it?!?! The findings had notable caveats, however. For one, the amount of drug required to have an effect on the virus was much higher than the amount approved for use in humans, and could be fatal. And lab-based tests, where the drug and virus interact in a petri dish, also don’t account for the complexities of the human body.

Hey want to use it? Do it please!

"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.

They'd have better luck 'curing' stupidity.

Getting something to work in a lab in petri dishes is a long long way to getting it to work inside the body. Like you might as well be in different galaxies.
 

"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.

You're really right.

In future the film "Snakes on a Plane" will become standard procedure. Halfway through the flight they'll release the snakes and that way by the time the flight lands the snakes will have cured everyone of Covid.
