"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.

Back in my teens, many years before I discovered SoSuave, I used to hang around this Zelda Community. It was great back then.

With the release of Tears of The Kingdom I decided to go back and check it out. Oh boy. You can now select your "prefered pronouns" when creating a profile. I started noticing more little details that got me to believe I was gonna get banned.

So there this thread called "Things that offend/anger/annoy you". I started with something small: "People calling me racist if I dont like The Little Mermaid annoys me. I dont even live in the U.S."

Then some girl posted something something like "I remember when ignorant straight people..."

I made another post quoting her. It got deleted but it was something like this:

I remember when small children were not being mutilated in "gender affirming" surgeries.

I remember fondly visiting this place in my teens. No Snowflakes, no Karens, no modern "feminism", no White Knights, No Social Justice Warriors, no pronouns, no "trans" people trying to force the world to play along to their delusion, non of that "non binary" nonsense.

I remember when people didnt get cancelled or banned for stating facts or speaking their mind.

I remember people talking about zelda stuff, video games, and non political stuff.

In my teens, this was the best Zelda Community. It still is, but it has really gone downhill.


And minutes later I was banned. It a shame, because that place really used to be great. I do mean it when I said I have fond memories of spending time there in my teens. Part of me kind of wanted to keep my mouth shut, but I just couldnt.

Oh, and this is the reply from some boy who thinks he is a girl:

"On the topic of what offends me, there's one comment juuuust above in this thread that pretty much achieves it all. Bingo."
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Link was the First trans... Let's admit it..we all thought he was a girl
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Once places get taken over by woke ideologies, you can kiss being able to speak freely goodbye.

It's also inside organizations like National Speech and Debate Association. In one case, someone responded to a survey on Facebook about what people should be allowed to say. In a debate, their opponent showed the Facebook post and won the debate! They didn't bother debating anything, just made a personal attack, and the judge awarded them victory. Goodbye, merit, it was nice knowing you.
