"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.

It goes like this:

Hi,
I'm new here, how's it going?

"Buddhism has the characteristics of what would be expected in a cosmic religion for the future: it transcends a personal God, avoids dogmas and theology; it covers both the natural & spiritual, and it is based on a religious sense aspiring from the experience of all things as a meaningful unity" - Albert Einstein

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I like this quote:

penkitten said:
just cause someone is a bud dist does not mean they are a preacher, and even if they were... why would that offend you?


Offend is the key word. It's pathetic how a small e-mail could be offensive. It's hard to offend me, because I'm open to everything. I never even got e-mail like that. I never got any spam at all. I bet they only send it to people that are easily offended, or get emotional about the littlest of things.

Devil, God, Jesus..

So much bull sh!t..

Hey, I have a question. If you were to find out that Jesus is nothing but a fraud, and that Jesus is evil, and that Jesus is gay.. What would that make the Devil, or the anti-christ?


If I'm John, what does it makes you?


:D :D :D The God as we know it in Christian religion is nothing but a parody of ancient Egyptian worship of the sun. Jesus is the Sun of God. :D :D :D
 

"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.

What's the big deal? Evangelists preach all the time and they got annoying. Don't we tolerate them?

Yeah especially the women and her crazy kids holding the signs "God hates f@gs" and rally at funerals of American troops. I'm surprised they haven't been shot.

Buddhist are much more peaceful then Christians. How many religious wars have they participated in?
