"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Obama's executive order stopping private sales is going to drive prices up, possibly thru the roof and mess up availability, too.
 

"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.

I just met for lunch today with a buddy who is a firearms expert. I'm going to make some moves now while I still can.

maybe and first he has to get IN, which is going to take over a year. why risk it, when $600 now can save you?

But it's not about banning guns. Mostly it is about screwing over unlicensed gun sellers. I'd invest in a firearms dealership, or a how-to-get-a-license educational program for guys who want to be licensed sellers.
 

"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.

you have to be fingerprinted, give the feds your pic, give them $300, if youi're not turning several k per year of profit by selling guns, it's not worth getting licensed. Obama is floating a balloon, seeing what he can get away with. the answer will be, very soon, NOTHING, punk!. but in the meantime, prices will go up.

you'll never see prices on AR's get any lower than they are right now. You can assemble a parts gun for $550, if you shop around.

You can still buy paintball guns with pepper rounds or glass breakers.

Gun kid are you an arms machinist? If not you should seriously consider taking that trade up. I hear there is a ton of money in gun engravings and custom weaponry. I've always found gun smithing to be a very interesting job.

never could draw, even, much less do engraving. Smithing, with very rare exceptions, pays very little. you can make far more money in much easier ways. it's amazing to me how much money people will spend on guns, and then rarely never shoot them, have no real skill with them, etc. It takes many years to develope enough of a (wealthy) clientele to make a good living as a smith.
