"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.

Gimme a break!

"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.

i feel sorry for whatever guy she hooks up with, and in a way i feel sorry for her too. her parents have obviously done, and continue to do, a HORRIBLE job in raising her.

i dont care how rich you are, giving your kid a lexus when she is 15 is bad parenting (bordering on recklessly negligent if you ask me).

as f*cked up as the kid is, the mother is even more f*cked up for

1) thinking its normal to give her kid a lexus
2) not realizing that by raising her kid to be a spoiled brat she is actually severly damaging her ability and chances to have an enjoyable life.

but like a lot of rich housewives, they figure they can buy their kids love, completely failing to realize that in doing so they're wrecking their kids life both in the present and long into the future.

this should also be a good example to everyone about how happiness is a state of mind. this kid has everything and is miserable.

Well said joekerr.

We look at that video and we might think the 15 year old girl is morally repugnant for her reaction but we must pause and...

Consider the source.

She is acting out of her mother's entitlement mentality which she has been programmed with.

A real shame.

"I apologize for my daughter's behavior" the mom says. She ought to add "I also apologize for the botched way I raised her".

I was at a wedding a few years ago and the flower girl was probably about 6 or 7, and her mom and dad are parading her around and said, "tell people what you are..." and the girl responds "I'm the princess!" and her folks coo back "that's right, sweetheart, you're the princess!" and I'm thinking, "this is supposed to be cute?" I was mortified.

The dads are very much at fault here too. They may do well in their industries, but at home, they're submissive morons.

haha, just as bad.

this time we get to see how an AFC father acts. 'turn off the camera' he tells his son, not wanting to be recorded as he behaves like a pathetic chump as his daughter throws a tantrum. the wife walks inside, most likely not wanting to watch her daughter manipulate her father with a tantrum (which ironically is probably behavior she learned by watching mom!)

dad: just give it a chance. drive it around the block.

hahah, he's actually begging her to 'give the car' a chance. WTF is wrong with america when parents have to beg their kids to accept a brand new car?

even the son catered to his sisters tantrum. 'come on leslie, just give it a chance.'

WTF is wrong with these guys.

if it were me, I can tell you exactly what i would do. I would either return the car, or I'd take it down to the local church and tell the priest to give the car to a family in need. then if my daughter wanted a car she'd have to go work and buy one herself.

but then again, i'd never raise my kids to be a spoiled brat like this in the first place.
