"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.

I have an assignment due tomorrow, and I'm struggling with it. Our assignment is to derive the the distance formula.
Find the distance from ax + by + c = 0 to point (x, y).

The answer: d = (ax + by + c ) ÷ SquareRoot(a^2 + b^2)

I need to show the teacher how I came to that answer. Please help.
 

"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 need it in terms of x, and y.

x = ( (b^2)(x) - (a)(b)(y) - (a)(c) ) ÷ (a^2 + b^2)

y = ?

derivative of something = dy/dx

keep that in mind...it should help you. Move the terms you need to one side and derive the rest.


In other news, I am happy I get Lincoln's Bday off tomorrow.:cheer:

The derivation is incredibly long for something so goddamn simple. Go google it, I'll bet there's someplace that tells you exactly what you need.

dy/dx of ax + by + c = 0 is

a + b*dy/dx = 0
dy/dx = -(a/b)

?!

integration
derivative is something else i thought
what the **** are you people talking about.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Just when I thought everyone on this site was retarded in school. I hate Calculus. Integration and derivation are pretty easy by themselves, but the books always give you stupid problems that make you do way too much thinking.

Thanks for hearing out my pissed off rant for the day everybody.
