"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.

Just as a disclaimer: to some of you who may watch anime, I know that you'll probably bash me for this but I don't quite watch anything else so that's why I feel this way towards DBZ.

Anyway, I've been binge watching Dragon Ball Z for the past several days now, and I gotta say it really hits me hard with that 'gotta be the best' mentality. It's a really old show, but still has some great stuff that really strikes a cord with my inner man-child that I didn't even know I had hahaha. I think it's like that for a lot of guys too because my brother was laughing at me for watching that stuff at first, but now he's farther ahead in the series than I am :D:D:D Overall, I really like it even though it might seem a little lame to some. Maybe it's cuz I'm still not a full grown adult yet. But this got me thinking though, especially for some of you older folks: do you guys still have a little boy left inside of you that still likes to do childish things or is it all about work, progress, and women now?
 

"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.

your boy, resi has been training hard in The Room of Spirit and Time (aka hyperbolic time chamber). :cool:



I don't binge watch DBZ like I did when I was in high school guy eons ago, but I still remember some of its greatness. The show can oddly help motivate one to train mentally and physically.

Dragon Ball Super started off mediocre, but the series have redeemed itself, especially in current saga. Here's one of my favorite AMV.

Yeah each arc has its pinnacle that makes it really amazing imo. Love this show. And your aviator too :up::up::up:

I agree about super. But when the first tournament started, I thought it got really good, especially the battle with Hit.

I used to be a huge anime aficionado when I was in my younger 20s. I haven't collected or watched anything since then. I only just stopped playing video games a year ago at 35 to focus on career, lifting, self-improvement, etc.

Funny, how I've noticed confidence and game generally pick up with women when I walked away from pop-culture. Some people just mature later, deesade ;).

As a side note, Beserk does rock. It's a shame they didn't expand to multiple seasons with that show. I guess there was a revival recently, but I haven't watched any of it.
 

"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.

Yeah,DBZ's pretty cool. I used to watch it back in the early 2000s.

For the longest,I didn't know Z was a sequel....that's how good it is. It was so good,it outshined the original Dragon Ball....kinda like Terminator 2 did the original Terminator.

They have a new show out,called Dragon Ball Super,which personally, I HATE. If you ever watch it,you're going to be in for one heck of a shock...especially when you see the way Goku acts...he's NOTHING like he was in Z.

But yeah...Z is cool.

Yeah honestly I didn't know Z was a sequel either. But they've got quite a few series now. And you're right about Goku being REALLY weird in Super. But I noticed that as time went on in the series of DBZ, he did start to get a little more goofy which I guess would make sense why he's really childish in Super. I know that the creator of the whole Dragon Ball franchise said that he originally didn't want Goku to be a guy that's good or bad, but just liked fighting guys stronger than him so maybe that's why he's changed some. He seemed a lot more serious in the beginning of Z than later on, although he did get a heck of a lot stronger too, and the really high intensity moments are better and better. Super isn't bad though, I still like it.
