"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.

The SCOTUS has respectfully begged to disagree with you. OMG! :rolleyes:


You're trying a classic strawman argument here. All I said is that the 2nd is not about hunting or hobby use, it's about citizens protecting themselves with a specific point made (not by ME, by the framers for godsake) of discussing "security of a free State".

Go argue with THEM if you don't like it, I'm just repeating the facts man.
Actually you said that teh second amendment was about a citizen army. But I guess you just chose to ignore that. Oh well, ya just cant discuss with some people.

Im glad you are doing it solely out of spite.
 

"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.

Did you read the SCOTUS judgment? Have a look please.

bigjohnson, I guess you were right about my usage of "assault rifle." I just assumed that that was what AR stood for. Plus, everybody I know refers to them as such.

On another note, I'm pretty sure guys like In Motion are anti-gun because they fear what they don't understand.

I think I'm going to get the H&K USP instead of the Sig, btw.

Yes you're right it's a very common misuse. Sorry if I was abrasive but I'm glad you know the difference now. It shouldn't matter but the term has been demonized such that any weapon referred to in that way falls under a sort of cloud.

I like my Glocks (AKA Blocks), but if the large grips don't fit you then the USP is a good choice as well. I also like the Springfield XD series, you might give them a glance. All my Glocks and the XD-45 have been stone reliable.

If you are thinking of carry the Kahr pistols are likely a better mix of capability vs size. I like the XX-4044 lines, particularly the KP-4044.

I actually already have a Glock 23 for CC. The reason I'm shopping is because I have a little bit of money to blow and I really like the H&Ks. You're actually not the first person to recommend Kahr to me. I might have to check them out, as well. I do like the ergonomics of the XD; affordable too.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

One of my Glocks is a G32 which is the same frame as your 23 but chambered for 357 Sig.

Love that thing.

I had a SS frame Kahr and it was awesome but sort of heavy for a waistband carry scenario so I gave it to my Dad as a pocket gun. The KP is polymer frame and quite a lot lighter, give it a look. The 4044 is all stainless but they add a black finish over it, which I prefer. I think the number for bare stainless (which will not rub out in places like the black will) is 4043 but don't hold me to that.

The poly Kahr is on my personal want list.
