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.

I came down with a flu and I'm not strong enough to lift, plus i have studying to do. Anybody out there know any good ways to beat this thing in record time? Don't tell me lots and fluids and vitamin C, I'm already there.
 

"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.

You better NOT do any intensive sports when you have a cold. That would put stress on your kidneys.

Sure most of the time, it's OK. But with some people at unlucky times, it might cause nephritis.
It's something that happens more often in the military, because during bootcamp, usually you don't say "sir, I have a cold, I need to rest" when you have a cold.

If NOT handled well, nephritis can cause you to kiss goodbye to your happy (especially sexual) life...:nono:

So always get some rest when having a cold, you can lift again in a couple of days when you get better.

Your body needs rest. Get around 9-11 hours of sleep, but don't do it all at one time. When your body fasts, you are depraved of the energy you need to fight the viruses. Split your sleep up into several naps.
 

“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.

yea, if its a cold or flu, theres no cure for it. Let your body do what it needs to do to get back to normal, pushing it only makes it worse and last longer.

But if you need short-term relief for work/school, get some sudafed, preferably the stuff with "pseudofedrin" in it, it works a lot better than the new chemical they use now (pseudofedrin is used for the production of methanphetamine, so it's starting to get a bit hard to get ahold of in the USA, most of the major nasal decongestient manufacturers have switched chemicals because of this, but the original one seems to work a LOT better than the new one)

Echinacea is supposedly very good for boosting your immune system and warding off colds etc. I'm not sure how good it is once you have caught the cold though.

Garlic is supposed to be very good too!

I usually don't suffer a cold more than 2 days, 3 at the most. As soon as I detect it I get plenty of vitamin C and garlic down me, plenty of water and take echinacea tablets.

If you would like to reduce the danger of chemical hazards, you can try natural home remedies to help you on how to get rid of a cold. One way on how to get rid of a cold is to get some rest. One of the reasons why humans endure common cold is that they don’t get sufficient rest. Resting can refresh your body and fortify your immune system. Also turn on the humidifier at your home. A humidifier can keep the air moist and thus make it easier for you blow out the mucus from your nose.
 

"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.

Zinc can kill viruses on contact, so take either zinc picolinate or get something like Cold-eeze.

Take 20,000-50,000 IU of vitamin D. The more vitamin D your body has, the more cathelicidin your body produces and the more exploding granules your T cells will have to onject into viruses to get rid of them.

Take 1000 mg of Vitamin C three times a day.

Eat chicken noodle soup---there is something in it that help with colds/flu

If possible take Wild Oil of Oregano. This stuff is potent, nasty and reigns destruction on all microbial invaders. 2 drops of this in a toilet bowl full of raw sewage sterilizes the bowl. 2 drops in a gallon of milk prevents spoilage for up to a month after expiration date...

Go to one of those Doc in the Box type places, and ask for a steroid shot. Done.

10,000 mil of vitamin C a day with a lot of water.

I'm not kidding. Fresh vitamin C stays in your system only for a couple of hours and that's why it's hard for your immune system to quickly get rid of a cold. take about 2000 mil of vitamin C every hour. You'll feel like **** the next day, but the day after you'll be perfect.

All in all if you start now you can completely get over the cold by Friday.

Edit: And before anyone says you'll hurt yourself having too much vitamin C, there's been no cases of overdose on vitamin C. The worst you'll get is diarrhea and a headache.
