"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.

anyone else noticing the influx of these total afc's in your nieghbourhood?

Surprisingly alot of the girls in my nieghbourhood are into them. This boggles my mind because all emo kids do is whine and complain and cry. They talk shyt like thier gonna cut themselves, but they never get around to it.

Makes DJing difficult when you have alot of these guys in your area. Lots of emo girls where I live.

Anyone else hate emo kids?
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Right.

How does it make "DJing" difficult?

Because the emo guy are all sensitive and crap. Even the really hot girls are starting to find that attractive, and are giving these guys all thier attention.

Where ever I go now I see all these girls hanging out with emo kids and it always seems like the girl is trying to comfort him.

Fellas,

Emo guys are like the goth guys from 5 years ago, or the prep guys from the grunge era.

I tend to think of it this way: none of these labels are musical styles, although people seem to think they are. Emo is just pop-punk. Goth is just black metal/death metal etc., and prep music is just AOR pop. Even grunge is just rock n roll.

They're just buying into the "rebel" image "against" the current trend.

Being a ****y moron is the popular image(ie rap, hiphop), so being a ridiculously melancholy crybaby skinny kid is the exact opposite.

In the end, they are all just followers.

welcome to my world
don't hate anyone because your game is suffering...

to say all the hot girls are into "emo kids" is bullsh!t

you can't blame anyone but yourself

i have no idea how more of any type of person could be hurting your game...unless your town was suddenly taken over by super pimps :crackup:

the least you could do is get to know them and find more parties or people to hang out with

btw...last night at the mall i talked to this chick who had her wrist pierced! ouchies. although she told me it doesn't hurt?
 

"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.

I've found the whole 'emo' approach to be a quite useful tool in the DJ-tool chest.

If you're consciously being EMO, you need to hang yourself ASAP. There is no cure for EMO, and there is no treatment. Well, no treatment that doesn't involve depriving your brain of oxygen until it dies :)

Emo is not an acronym, it's individual letters do not stand for anything, there is no need to capitalize the whole word...

Doesn't this thread strike anyone else as a bit ironic? Isn't sitting around whining about how emo kids are getting all the girls a rather emo thing to do?

Yeah, but he's pissed about it rather than crying and listening to "kill yourself" music.

The real irony is they dress to be different, but all end up dressing the same. Same thing with Punks.

My last primary was really into emo music and said she loved all these whiny emo musicians. It was interesting to see that she had a ton of guy "friends" that wanted to b0ne her but she always turned them down for being - you guessed it! - mega-AFC. I'm not into emo at all, unless you call bands like Air Supply and Journey emo. And we b0ned into the sunset...

It shouldn't make your game any harder unless you let it psych yourself out. So don't do that.

educate an old man please. what the fukk is an emo?
 

"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 short for "emotional".

It means a guy (or girl) who is overly sensitive, thinks the world sucks, is often depressed, and listens to so called "emo" bands. They often wear black clothing, tight pants, have boxed glasses, and bleached highlights of black-dyed hair.

To put it all in one big stereotype. Kind of like a less angry more depressed Goth.

Emo, like anything, is just a trend.

I would find it ironic in the future if Don Juanning was a trend and everyone was listening to a sexified version of flamenco.

Having a hate for a certain group of people for what they dress like or their lack of confidence is a waste of energy and time. It is illogical and matters not to your life.

If these people are making you uncontrollably agitated, you're not busy enough in life and should take up a hobby or learn something.
