"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.

If you don't go to war you're a coward. You have to join up and blow another innocent man to pieces.

I do not think I'm a coward. I have done lots of brave things in my time. Why should I be forced to kill another human being!? For a war over money
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

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.

First, war is wrong for the same reasons that murder is wrong. Because war is murder.
A strategy that kills ten thousand people is not somehow less wrong than killing just one person. The colossal scale does not make it noble. The idea that countries rather than people are the “agents” is also irrelevant. Someone gave the order to go over there and start shooting, and if that person caused ten thousand people to die that’s ten thousand times as criminal as someone who caused only one person to die.
Second, war is the probably the worst possible solution to whatever problem you’re trying to solve. It’s worse than wrong, it’s idiotic.
Nothing broken can be fixed by killing people. In the future when someone suggests a war others will look away in embarrassment. And one of them will say: “I’m sorry, but that’s just stupid. Why don’t you go off and think for a while about exactly what the problem is that you’re trying to solve.
 

"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.

Imagine a biological weapon which affects every country in the world economically, stays on surfaces 72 hours, and spreads 4 meters in the air. Countries will have no choice but to replace their currencies with virtual money and virtual wallets, and the citizens will be for such measures in order to save their lives. China to replace cash with virtual money, a google search. Name of the game is control, not total destruction, son. Nuclear war can happen, but it will be the end of the world, nobody wants such war, not even a devil worshiping world manipulating sect of extremely rich people.

UN is predicting 100's of millions of people are going to starve to death because of global economic shut down. We are seeing china start to flex on Taiwan while our super carriers are out of commission in the china sea. Not to mention the wide spread misinformation and deception about the virus from China. Trump had to issue an order for the US Navy to sink Iranian boats that were harassing US ships. Not to be alarmist but as the economy stays shut down, supply chains continue to dissolve, and tension continues to grow, war seems like a growing possibility in the near future.

We (should have) learned in the 1930s that global economic depression breeds nationalism. Every world leader will want to point at another country so that the people do not blame poor leadership for their suffering.

All Islamic countries
Islamic countries are Sunni (Saudi Arabia) and Shia (Iran).

Those dudes hate each other.

I tend to agree. I think the odds are very high that the next decade, starting soon, is going to suck, and a lot of people are going to die.

Unless the Fed buys everybody's debt, companies overloaded with debt are going to start dropping like flies.

Dudes in India are on the verge of starving to death because of the shut down.

Rocket man might be dead or in a vegetative state ... China will try to seize NK due to it having previous metal deposits. S Korea, The US and Japan will try to prevent this.... The South China Sea is also a hot spot....

....if WWIII breaks out it'll be in Asia....
 

"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.

UN is always saying something. They act like they're the judges of the global world, when they're nothing but virtue signalling group of useless individuals that never made any actual innovation in the world.

rule to follow is never trust goverments, even IF it looks like it had good intentions, remember hell is full of it.

now about wars is never go to war because of goverment told you so, only go if goverment start to push they luck.

in a perfect world when goverments start to become corrupt and power drunk, people would rise kill all politicians then restart, over and over.

but in the end, in the real world, just do what works for you not because someone told you so

Country lines are either crossed from trade vehicles or tanks...one or the other.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
