"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.

hey guys, just wondering if there're any people out there who know about electronics...I'm moving into a small room next year at uni so I'm having to leave my seperates at home :-(

instead I'm thinking of building this system, it should be nice and small so perfect for my room...

I take an apple mini system ( http://store.apple.com/Apple/WebObjects/ukstore.woa/wa/RSLID ?nnmm=browse&mco=9A42D2A0&node=home/desktop/mac_mini) and hook it up to a 42" plasma tv ( http://www.hyperfi.co.uk/default.aspx?CategoryID=204&Ite mID=Panasonic_42pw6_ex-display) as the monitor....then I link it up to a BOSE Acoustimass 10 sound system ( http://www.bose.co.uk/GB/en/home-entertainment/home-cinema/s peaker-systems/AM10/index.jsp)

does that sound at all practical? any suggestions? The BOSE speakers do sound awesome although I'm up for any alternatives :)

cheers, Leeroy
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Everyone not in your room will consider you a douchebag. The bass penetrates through dorm walls so easily even at low volume.

Altec Lansing makes great speakers, might want to check them out, better value than the bose systems..
 

"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.

I know this very well, I've got a pretty awesome set up atm but it just won't fit in my room next year...

I'm living in a house too, and the other 5 guys're never in and when they are in, they're also listening to loud music so this is no problem...
