Just curious...
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

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.
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.

Francisco d'Anconia,
I know that question isn't dedicated to me, but I'll tell you why I thought it was funny.
If I saw the clip randomly without Mr. Delicious' introduction, I wouldn't have found it funny, but the funny part is how people here always talk about "not taking any sh;t from women" and neg hitting them to put them down (I'm not a fan of neg hitting - btw, but that doesn't matter), and Mr. Delicious comes along and says "ok, this is how true dj's neg hit", it is so extream, that it's obvious that he's being funny and sarcastic.

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
True that. Most of the domestic violence I've seen occurs in both rich and poor neighborhoods with the rich (wealthier) having a tendency to be more verbal in their abuse. While in some of the poor, ghetto neighborhoods I've been through it's usually physical.Supposedly chilled out and in control Don Juan's completely over the top reactions in this thread is the funny part.
As a quick reality check, you are getting bothered by a post by a stranger on an internet message board.
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 have to disagree with a big loud "what the fùck are you talking about".Originally posted by Jariel
When I read this post, I took it ironically, since there are a number of DJ students and mentors promoting resentment of women, sexual harrassment, mental abuse and the extreme jerk mentality, if not physical abuse.
No, they were intended to be disturbing and act as an eye-opener.Originally posted by Engetsu
Man those videos are just disturbing... I think they're meant to be funny in a dark humor kind of way, as well as to act as an eye-opener...
There have been several posts from guys wanting to know how to inflict revenge on women, wannabe pimps who want to use and control women, guys who promote things like slapping a stranger's ass and the "make the ho say no" attitude (aka sexual harrassment) and guys who flip out because a girl turned them down/refused to have sex with them.Originally posted by Engetsu

You're just being a symp (woman sympathizer) and a Captain-Save-a-Ho. Didn't you get the memo that women are our oppenents and our enemy?Originally posted by Jariel

I'm yet to read a post encouraging beating women, but there are a fair number of extreme chauvinists on these boards.
