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.

Anyone else bought one of these badboys?

Streams my radio@AOL straight into my surround system, plays Mp3's, video's, and pics from my laptop hard drive, all wirelessly.

Best $200 I've spent in awhile!
 

"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.

The streaming AOL radio works GREAT. I have it plugged directly into my router via cat5 cable so it streams flawlessly.

The only problem is the wireless connection between my laptop and the media player. When I try to play Mp3's it's VERY choppy. Any ideas to remedy this?

Software firewall on your laptop? AOL security suite? If so, try disabling the firewall. Also find out if there is a firmware upgrade from DLINK which may kick out any wireless bugs. I assume you have an 802.11g+ or pre-n router? If so check with the maufacturer if there is a firmware upgrade for your router as well.

I have a 802.11g network, the firmware and the server software were just updated on the media player. So I need to see about a frimware upgrade for the router?

You really think the AOL security and the firewall could be causing this? I don't mind dumping whatever AOL is running but I don't really want to disable my firewall.

Oh yea, I also just realized that another Dlink model has a USB connector on the front that I could use to hook up an external hard drive (I have a 100gig laying around doing nothing). Maybe I should return this one and spend another $50....
