Bump for this great thread.

Also, does anyone have the links to articles about the UK and Australia enacting a form of alimony for unmarried couples?
 

"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.

Does anyone have the Tom Leykis podcast? The links above no longer work.

Bump. This thread doesn't deserve to die. And I'm still hoping someone has copies of the Leykis episode in question.

Bump. If anyone has a backup of the podcasts, I'd love to get a copy.
