"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.

"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.

and they sell a threaded barrel, for silenced use, for their .22lr conversion unit for their brilliant pocket 9mm, the Model P938



this is their little P238, a 380 only. I hope sig sees fit to offer this rainbow finish on the 9mm version because I'm a gay homosexual.
You're so funny.

Most reverse threaded barrels are illegal now.

I had a suppressed (American Scionics) 45 ACP back in the day. With their subsonic rounds, you mostly heard the action.

It is cool to see SIG show them on their site.

Silencers are funny in the movies. They'll be running through a crowd of people shooting at each other, and the guns just make little FFFT FFFT noises with each shot, so quiet no one hears them at all.

It reminds me of those magic revolvers they have in the movies that shoot like 10-15 rounds without reloading.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Or how every single good guy is the perfect marksman, while the bad guy can't hit anything from 2 inches away.

a .22lr, if you lock shut the breech, can be so quiet that you think that you dryfired the gun by mistake, somehow. You can hear the bullet "click" thru a paper target at 50 yds, on a quiet day. But if you let the bolt/slide cycle normally on a semiauto, it's going to have a small 'pop", about like a very mild handclap. this is due to some of the hot powder gases escaping the simple-blowback auto action as the fired casing is ejected from the gun. So there's no point in having the silencer be any quieter than that, if you are going to have rapidfire potential.

What's REALLY funny is them showing silencers on revolvers. :) The gas leak at the cylinder/barrel gap is going to let out a lot of gas/noise. Reed Knight found a way to silence a .38 revolver. I'd bet that it involved O rings in some manner. It's also feasible to silence EACH rd, with a piston that's captured inside of a bottleneced cartridge . The Russians did that. I"ll post a link.

Another laugh is them showing a 1" OD, 3" long "can" for a 9mm or .45. The reality is that a .45 silencer, which lets the slide cycle and actually does a good job of suppressing the blast, is every bit as big as a Gov't Model 1911 .45 pistol As in 1.6" OD and 8" long.
