"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.

How do you deal with the fact that someday you are going to die?

Anybody has any philosophies or beliefs other then Heaven/Hell that if you take a certain risk your life could end? should you even be thinking about death?

If you had or will have a certain decision to make that might put your life at risk, how did you or would you find the courage to do so knowing there might be a terrible outcome?
 

"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.

I thought about this last weekend.
I'm going to die.

I don't know why, but I feel nothing really, then I get a huge grin on my face.

Im at the age where death is a thing only heard of in movies and on the news.

It doesnt even exist to me... its so wierd.

For instance, ive had a few people ive known die and it just seems so surreal, like they didnt die or something.


I know im going to die someday, hopefully not soon... but i know that when i do die i will be able to say "i had a good life" regardless of all the rest of the bullsh1t i will be able to die and move on to the next level of transcient mackin.

Im like 5'9 or so but i FEEL tall.... maybe thats because my parents are both short, my mom is like 5'1 tops and my dad is like 5'8.

I honestly dont think im done growing though, i hear you stop at around age 22....

Anyway 5'7 isnt that bad, i mean tom cruise is like 5'8,, but then again that IS tom cruise master ultra pimp brainwashed by the forces of scientology but still mad DJ masquerade eyes white shut style with a bird mask.
 

"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.

LOL Seriously, where the hell did that come from?

Anyways, getting back on topic... Why do you even think about death? Dude are you 60 or something? Of the thousands of millions of things that you can do or think right now, why point out that little detail that's going to happen someday and that you'll have plenty of time to cope with once you're retired on a gold course in Florida...

regardless of the heaven/hell do they exisit issue...

the actual act of death is referred to as warm, loving and inviting.
people that have near death experiences state this.
they say it takes every single ounce of them to fight the death and come back down to this world.

I want to die for a moment to see what its like. When I was a kid I sometimes wanted to commit suicide while being bored, because I was curious about death.

However I'd still like to see how our civilizations develop for the enxt few thousand years. Cyrogenic deep-freeze, here I come!

Futurama style, eh? :)
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

It would be strange (although nice in a strange way) to wake up and then hang out with a lobster like creature, a jamican, a hot martian, a hot cyclops, a 160 year old man, and a robot.

im 27 and im going to die. I really dont fear death at all. If there is heaven then thats good for me. If there isnt then i wont be around to care anyway. If i come back as a spirit then i will watch girls change and masterbate. Why worry about something you cant control?

When science is able to manipulate and disable the gene that causes the human stop repairing itself (not in the way of growing, but when it starts to cripple and fall apart) people start living way longer.

Being 160 and looking just 30 wouldn't be a miracle then.

I hate dramas, so when I die I wanna disappear all of a sudden.

No "I miss you", no drama.

Like a shooting star! We must be like one, we should shine (while alive) and then disappear in the sky.

What's better than this?
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

The dead fear death; to learn to die is to be liberated from it. I have no fear of dying. Death is inevitable and could come calling at anytime. The only thing I truly fear is inadequacy. Besides, I know that there is much more to life than the physical world. Don't believe me?--I don't care.:p

Someday, sooner or later I will be dead. I am going to die, you are going to die, and there is nothing unusual about it. Dying is just a part of living. Just accept it and start living... you havn't got much time here to fool around, so start living each day as if it were your last. Someday we will all be old or dead.

Just relax, it isn't as scary as some would have you believe.;)
