"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.

I went to the Santa Anita Derby today. I normally do not make triple crown preditions a month early, but California Chrome is the best (american) 3YO horse i think i have ever seen. He's a freak of nature and i don't see how he loses the derby and could very well take the triple crown


what excites me about California chrome unlike other horses, he has not been babied. he wasn't expected to be good so they ran the **** out of him as a 2YO and he turned out to be pretty freaking good. he has the foundation to run 3 times in 5 weeks and he hasn't been asked to run once all year long and he's blowing horses, good ones, out.


there is another horse,Bayern who should run in the Arkansas derby next week and if he does what i think he will do, he will be the best shot to beat CC.. but CC has gears like i have not seen out of an american horse. he gallops faster than other horses run.


right now i like

1. California Chrome
2. Bayern
3. Tapiture
4. Untappable (filly)
5. Strong Mandate
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I meant to post a thread before the Kentucky Derby to get your take, but it slipped my mind. I put my money on CC to win too. Especially after I studied the field and saw how many horses had scratched or decided not to race in the KD. I did want to see Uncle Sigh do well, and he did for awhile but ended up 14th. He's owned by a guy from my hometown so I had to pull for him. I also thought Medal Count would do better then he did. I think I'll bet CC to win the Preakness and then wait and see for the Belmont.

California Chrome is gonna win the preakness today, but Bayern is going to make him fight for it and it's gonna be a lot closer than a 2/5 should win a race by. Bayern is legit.

Social Inclusion will get hype but he's garbage and will fold like a lawn chair in the stretch

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.
