If you did, just put your favorite scene.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
Did you think the Hangover was funny?

- Start date
"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.

I'll start it off my favorite scene was the one where Alan wakes up and there's a tiger in the bathroom
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Best Hangover moment --> When Alan says "I'm on your side I hate Godzilla" (or something like that) to the Chinese dude trying to beat him down with a tire iron.
I laughed my way through the entire movie and still do. Hangover 2, however, while pretty funny, is just not nearly as good because there's nothing unexpected.
Plus, I thought it was slightly effed up how the cello player/future surgeon loses his FINGER (necessity for his two passions) and nobody makes a big deal out of it.

Hopefully the third one will be better. Supposedly Alan, Doug, Stu, and Phil are all on a road trip. It should deliver.ARrocket said:

I think the part that made me laugh the most was when the dude was with his fiance explaining how horrible it was for a girl to be a stripper, and how her parents must feel, or whatever, and then the guys pull up in the car outside and say:
"Paging Doctor Phaggot!"
I also thought hot tub time machine was pretty funny, but moreso for the endless references to 80's movies.

"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.

This was extremely funny. Part 3 is coming soon. Hopefully this one gets an Oscar and puts all other movies to shame.taiyuu_otoko said:
