"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.

Do you think women started prohibitionist movement so that men couldn't socialize with other men?

I was listening to a Roller Steve YouTube video and he brought up this as possible reason, with the conclusion that women don't like men to socialize with other men lest they "compare notes" and learn that the matriarchy has conspired against them.


My opinion: This makes sense, and perhaps is the reason why womyn are always b!tching about private men's clubs being "sexist".
 

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

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

No, the gas companies started it because cars could run on alcohol or gas back then. By the time they lifted Prohibition, they had gas stations on every corner. So they quickly demonized both marijuana and cocaine with a pair of propaganda films from 1933 called Reefer Madness (to demonize hemp) and The Cocaine Fiends (cocaine had many medicinal benefits and nobody abused it when it was legal).
