Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

Alright, so Friday evening I fell really bad, hit my left knee and left foot, basically I couldn't stand or walk. Going to take a piss was a major challenge. I barely crawled home and laid down until the evening next day, when I realized I need help, because I can't eat or drink, can't get to the fridge. Cousin took me to hospital, which I didn't want to go, since I knew it wasn't broken, just hit badly. But anyway, they talked me into it, scaring me, if there is a crack in the bone, they might cut my leg off. So we went. You suppose to have an insurance card over here, which is given to you free, but I never bothered to go get it. So supposedly I had to pay at the hospital to get service. We drove there on cousin's car, and at the gate, we should have parked outside and went in by foot, but I told at the gate that I have a broken leg, they let us through. A small scroll or crawl into the reception area, I give them my passport, when asked if I have insurance I said I have it, but I didn't find it. So no questions asked thus far. They take x-rays. All those girls are fvcking hot, I must add. I got a bone when laying down under x-ray machine. So the doctor take a look at my x-rays, turns out no fracture or cracks, just a well swollen leg. They take no money and ask for no money, it was all done for free, and everything happened within half an hour, no waiting. In the end I wrote down medications that I suppose to take, pain relievers, and cream, and some bandage, bought it all at drug store for 700 rubles and went home. Now a day later I can walk a little bit.

Now my experience with hospitals in Miami. Back in late 90s when I was in high school, I had a boil on my butt, basically a hair got ingrown and I couldn't sit on my butt, it was painful. My mother drove me to hospital, we had no insurance. I remember waiting there, keep in mind I could not sit down, more than 4 hours. Literally, for more than 4 hours nothing happened, I stood, and it was cold because of air conditioner. Then the doctor took me in, and had it removed with scalpel. I remember to fix my ass in the end it cost me about 10,000 dollars, they send us the bill.

So there you go, the difference between going to hospital in Russia and America. If you got no insurance better not get injured in America.
 

"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.
