"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

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.
 

"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 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.?

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

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?
