"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.

Teen Girl Dies After Being Electrocuted By iPhone In The Bath

http://www.ladbible.com/news/news-t...g-electrocuted-by-iphone-in-the-bath-20181211




You see I fix iPhones for a living, the battery voltage is 4 volts, and the biggest voltage goes to LCD backlight, about 15 volts. None of that is enough to kill you, even if you are in the bath tub. So I have no clue how that kind of electrocution works. Anyone know?
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

It's not the voltage it's the current. Under dry conditions human skin/body has a very high resistance, something like 10k Ohms so a small voltage can't push the current through it. However, broken skin or wet the resistance drops low enough that even a small voltage can push the current (only need 50mA+ ?) through to kill a person.

That's theory, on practice I never had a client so much as get a shock from this sh1t. I had clients that jumped into sea (salt water, even worth than tub) with their phone, I had clients had jumped into river, got wet in the rain, etc. None of them so much as get a shock. So I don't believe this getting eletrocuted by phone in a tub thing. If you do it with a notebook I can see you getting a good shock, I can even see you getting enough current and getting killed, but not with a fvcking phone. For those brake enough out there, wet your fingers and touch car battery leads, you will not die.

This brings me to my next thought, murder.
