"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.

"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.

just saw it , .... dont really know what to say.

Its some pretty ****ed up **** going on , and we all know its been going on.
It changes you in some way , atleast it makes you think twice about these normal things that we take for granted.

All People should watch it , its hardcore , but you need to see it to understand the situation of this world...

I dont think il become vegan , but il definately think twice about where the food comes from.

Jaoquin Phoenix isn't much of a narrator. I would've preferred Arnold ("Arnie doesn't like cruel people, Arnie will smash them in face!"). Or even Mr T - "I pity da fool who meses wit animals!"

Absolutely Horrible! it takes a certain type of scum/piece of garbage/degenerate FUK, to have/keep a job that involves cruelty and lack of compassion to the treatment of animals ...

I couldn't watch the whole film..I can't believe people could get used to or become numb to the suffering of animals like that..

I don't understand it..how can someone get up everyday and do a job like that, and the guys that threw the dog in the garbage truck to be crushed ? or the guy that was singing while shooting the pigs in the head..it doesn't make sense how does someone de-value life like that...

I want to see a documentary on the people that hurt the animals in that film, what kind of lives do they lead ? how did they end up becoming people that do those things
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

We just had a vote one a bill that would make animal torture a felony. It didn't pass.

It was inspired after a local man got mad at his girlfriend and put her dog in the oven and turned it up all the way.

It was disgusting and yet the guy got charged with a simple misdemeanor.

It's hard to understand how somebody in western society can't see the horibbleness in such acts that they don't condemn the perpetrator.
