"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.

Did anyone else see today’s Dilbert cartoon about spooning? I was very disturbed by it. If you google Dilbert cartoons, it is featured on the homepage, I am sorry for not knowing how to attach the link.

Does anyone see the humor and can tell me what I am missing?

I am a pretty open minded person, but to me, this is a little overboard for the funny pages kids may read.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I think the humor comes from the devil going "soft" (no pun intended.)
Rather than damning the soul to he!! he "darns" it to "heck." When the man fails to comply with the devils *request* the devil resorts to spooning.

Perhaps is a commentary on the wussification and p.c.ification of society.

Who knows.?

"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.

Nah guys come on. The devil dude is holding a huge spoon (instead of a pitchfork I guess). He says "Don't make me use the spoon". And then he ends up spooning the guy and just leaving the spoon off to the side. I guess it is hilarious, I'm not sure yet.

I'd bet it's just a joke.

regardless, why is that inappropriate?
