"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Gene Simmons' NPR Interview: Too much alpha-maleness?

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

If this is the interview I'm thinking of, I heard it when it first aired. If I recall correctly, he was totally defensive and confrontational about his intelligence for no reason at all. He was all like "I read books!" and she was like "ok, I didn't say you didn't and also wtf mang."
 

"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.

"Life is too short to live with unrealistic delusions about yourself."

Tape that you your bathroom mirror and read it to yourself every morning. Gene is one of the few Men to have escaped the feminization of the last 40 years. I love KISS and I love NPR too, this is classic. Terry Gross has interviewed Gene before, she knew exactly what to expect and she still plays the slightly offended wallflower. But that's her NPR personae, just like Genes is all life's a sarge. I'm saving this MP3, it's art.

haha....Jews worship money more than anything else in the world. I have noticed it time after time again by dealing with them in the industry I work in...it is really quite sad.
 

"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.
