"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.

both albums have now leaked on the internet! both are scheduled for a Sept.11 release. Which album do you think is better? Which album do you think will sell more?

I personally think kanye's album takes the take...the only song i liked on the curtis album was 'ayo technology' and 'my gun'.

Right now on kanyes album im really feeling the intro track and the songs 'Cant tell me nothin', and 'Big Brother'.

even though kanye cant rap as well as 50 i like him better because his raps are easy listening rather than the other raps that commonly go ''ill shoot you n!gga,ill kill you with my big guns, and i get b!tches...blah blah..."

also i never liked 50 much after his first album...
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

LOL, well if Kanye can't rap as "well" as 50, then Kanye must sound like a bigger retard than Biz Markie.

according to offtopic.com:

everyone was expecting 50 to get rolled over.

but now that the albums have been released, it's pretty evenly matched, most even say that 50 will massacre kanye

Supposedly, this 50 album should be really good.

"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.

50 sucks
Kanye music is positive and good music to listen to so I'll be rooting for him. I think I'm going to get the album from the stores as well.
 

"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.

Kanye West has songs that seem to be the reject songs of songs he produced for other artists. Needless to say, no likey.

50 cent's album I like. Sounds fresh. Makes you want to go to the gym.

I loved 50's first two albums. I hated Kanye's former albums. and don't like him as a person.
Must admit though his new CD is probably the best album to come out this year.
 

"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.
