"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.

(go at it without more expectations than feeling 10 and a half again, it's a disney movie about a video game:) )

i already find it entertaining because the main character is hot but tell me what you think when you're done:)

the music is so 80's
 

"She's Out of Your League"

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.

Tron is one of my favorite movies for 2010. There wasn't much depth in the plot, but there wasn't meant to be. It was supposed to be entertaining and I think it did that well. I liked the feel and the environment it created. Very creative and very interesting. I give a lot of credit to the designers. The ending could have been better though. I would've like to see some kind of huge showdown with the villain.

The music is cool to listen to.

Tron of 1982 had more of a storyline and had characters you could relate to more. Did you know that the original tron was banned for a period of time, you couldn't buy it or see it on tv. Funny because I wanted to see it even more why it was banned. In a way, the original tron story is an archetype of the Lord Jesus Christ. Like the Chronicles of Narnia was related to the bible.

The user which in turn is the creator of the system(world), and created each program(person) came down from the user world, to the system world where sark the dictator of the system who is being controlled by the mcp(devil) is forcing people to renouced the belief in the users(God). Flyn the user with divine powers sacrifices his life, to save the system, and free the programs.

The story line definitely had alot of meaning behind it.


This new one on the other hand, was basically an eye candy movie with barely any story. Like most most of the new movies today, there was instances of subliminal masonic symbolism. The movie felt rushed and compensated with the graphics turned all the way up. There was alot of potential with this movie, but without the graphics it was just another bland movie and a disappointment, didn't hit the home run.

By the way BB, the music is from a french duo who were actually in the movie. Basically your making fun of your own countrymen, I would think you would have a little bit more pride for your country.

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
