"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.

Dear Asian MA Nutriders

Are you guys ****ing retarded? Seriously.

"Hurr, hurr, who would you rather face? Arnold in his prime or Bruce Lee?"
:rolleyes:

Size makes a big ****ing difference you retards. Get the greatest "flyweight" in boxing in the world and face him up against a heavyweight, or a super heavyweight. Hell, get a middle weight like myself to face a heavyweight, those guys hit like a tank and have coconut skulls (for the most part).

I've noticed that nut-riders like to preach Bruce Lee as a way to justify virtually anything they have to say about martial arts.
Well consider this - Bruce Lee was basically the first Mixed Martial Artist. He took the best from each of his respective styles and eliminated the rest.

He worked groundwork, he trained weights, throwing, jointlocks, and striking. Sound familiar?

I was in boxing for awhile up to about 4-5 months ago due to some "politics" and this is what I would personally recommend from my own experience -
If you want to weightlift, go two days in the week (Tuesday/Thursday) and keep a normal weightlifting schedule for the rest of it. One of my biggest problems with my boxing is that I failed to lift weights when I was actively training and I feel that actually hurt my performance.

Anyone and everyone interested in martial arts should check out this website - www.bullshido.net

If any of you have any questions for me, PM
 

"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.

Arnold was never a professional boxer. Those heavyweights wouldn't hit for sh1t without skill they got through practise.

Ever seen pro sport athletes (basketball, football, etc) fight each other? Most of those guys are pretty huge and muscular, but 9 times out of 10 they don't know how to throw a punch.

I don't think anyone said that muscles will hurt fighting ability.
