"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.

You never hear these on the radio or anywhere.
I was watchin a surfin video and they had a ska song on there so i finally remembered the genre.

The only band ive really heard in the past was this christian band called "The O.C. Supertones" ... actually ive also heard "The mighty mighty bosstones" cuz they had that one hit lol.

Anyways, i think ska is pretty cool and upbeat, but i dont know any good bands... or any bands at all for that matter. Could any of yall point me out to some?
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Less Than Jake has a ska song called Best Wishes to Your Black Lung on their Anthem CD. The funny thing is I was listening to this exact song when I saw your thread. The rest of the CD is great too so you won't be disappointed.

Listen to Reel Big Fish or Suburban Legends for kickarse upbeat ska.

Also Mad Caddies play a cool brand of punk-ska
 

"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.

secondly, maybe you should read what you just posted

RELATED STYLES


RELATED STYLES


RELATED STYLES............ the key word is RELATED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is not the style of Smash Mouth

Its saying, ok smash mouth is so and so tsyle ( rock or w/e) ... and there are styles related to rock like classic rock, punk rock, ska rock, etc...

besides the fact that you just proved yourself wrong, trust me, SMASH MOUTh is NOT ska.

i dont hear any offbeat strumming, trumpets,trombones, along with the regular band parts such as distorted electric guitar

Most of the popular bands out there considered "ska" are really more punk/ska, or whatever. I would not consider Smash Mouth real ska.

Good ska bands are bands like Hepcat or The Slackers. Now that's ska.
 

"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.
