"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.
Thank you Gen-X for PhD in Women's Studies

"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.
If you give up, or if you decide he is too outdated because from the early 2000s, nobody can help you. See this is how it works:
-Sexual brainwashing
-Political brainwashing
-Religious brainwashing
You have to start with Pook as the foundation because it erases sexual brainwashing. Then you can work from there. Pook is like the coach (or father) you never had.
And lest you think this is immoral, I am a practicing Roman Catholic, church every Sunday, etc. etc. etc. But I'm NOT brainwashed.
Good luck everyone. And PLEASE want to not be a loser. I need company. As it is I'm going to have to marry an Xer because females my age are morons. Please get with the program or else you're not going to be successful when the Boomers lose their tyrannical grip on society.
OK, I'm done

I stopped visiting regularly around 2010. I knew everything Pook had written and others had elaborated it to the point where I had full understanding.
Has the forum degenerated? I remember a lot of nice guys on this site.
Edit: Sorry, see I just got angry again. We don't hate you, but we can't believe you have no willpower. This is literally your life you're throwing away because you'd rather be brainwashed than strive for something better. You have no excuse. I was molested and lied to by my parents in addition to the usual public school brainwashing. I got out of it and now everything is going my way. Sometimes you have to suffer temporarily to be a winner but maybe donald trump is right maybe there ARE winners and losers maybe a generation of losers more like it.
Coming as someone born in 1990, there's no NEED to rewrite the DJ Bible. Pook got it right the first time. He put it in the perfect format for understanding. Look at me. Some people were just too stupid to pick up on it. He didn't fail-THEY DID.
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Pook is a legend in my eyes. He didn't get it 100%, but like you said, he needs to be the foundation for anyone visiting this site for the first time.I alternate between being furious at Millennials and wanting to help them, so I want to tell everybody who doesn't want to be brainwashed-the quickest and surest way to do that is POOK. Pook is the most direct pathway to UN brainwashing yourself. Read it and immerse yourself in it. Read it daily. Want it to be true. Even when I was so brainwashed I didn't know up from down, something inside me said, "Listen to this man."

Every 17 year old male should read fifteen lessons by pook. It's the single most monumental document ever written for the manosphere. It changed my life.
I'm 30 now and cleaning up shop with women. I was once a young afc on this site.
I agree the community needs new leaders to help the millennials. It's an even crueler world out there for our young boys then it ever was for us. Hypergamy is rampant.
