Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

This is probably the most insignificant, meaningless and useless thread I've ever started or ever will start...but darn it...I LOVE fiddleheads! I love this time of year because they are in season! I made some for dinner tonight and damn it they were SO GOOD!

If you have no clue what I'm talking about...I feel bad for you because fiddleheads are AWESOME...and you are really missing out!

Oh yeah...and Glenn Beck ROCKS! He got his rant on tonight about personal responsibility...and it was freaking beautiful....watch it.

That's all...
 

"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.

No...you eat them...and they are yummy! If you live somewhere that has ostrich ferns that's where they come from. You pick them when they are a couple of inches sprouted out of the ground, clean them really good and then steam or boil them for 10 minutes. They are SO GOOD! I love all vegetables, though...so if someone doesn't like vegetables they might not like them. If you ever get a chance to try them...DO IT! :woo:

Padron Reserve maduro in hand while finishing my b
My Mother used to make this sh!t for my brother and I when we were kids. Tastes like swollen foot and hot ass. This sh!t is strictly for the birds . . .

That means you Bird :crackup:

I always had you pegged as a snot-nosed brat who wouldn't eat his vegetables! :crackup:

They taste a little like asparagus, but softer texture.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Nah, I'm a spinach eating freak! Brussel sprouts, peas, asparagus, broccoli, cauliflower. I love that sh!t.

If you like asparagus then something is seriously wrong if you don't like fiddleheads. The only thing I can figure is that your Mom didn't clean them well or either under or over cooked them. You pick them wild and there is a brownish/orangish film on the stems that need to be completely removed or it makes them kinda bitter.

lol...were you picturing a bunch of barefoot groupies in tie dye t-shirts and overalls carrying around a washtub, old washing board in the back of an old VW bus?

"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.

Nah I was actually imagining a bunch of neo hippies doing the hippy-dippy stoner dance at some jamfest while reeking of ditchweed and BO.

Wyldfire you just spend a span of an hour on a forum talking about fiddleheads.

Do you feel accomplished in your life?

Is that anything like ostrich poop? I know some people who have ostriches on their farm and could send you some dumplings.

Oh wait, those are emus. Nevermind.

Nah it is actually quite a normal type of thread for Anything Else.

I think you have made a lot more "meaningless and useless" threads other than this one :). Not holding that against you though; it happens.
