"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Nick Diaz is one of the most exciting fighters in MMA. He has alot of heart and goes balls to the wall. I think it's a shame his win over Gomi was nullified because he tested positive for marijuana.
 

"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 prefer UFC over Pride for a variety of reasons. Pride rounds are too long and the fights are so poorly produced that it takes away from the excitement. With regard to fighters, both organizations are pretty stacked.

AHHHH I hate people who act like they know what they're talking about. Seriously PRIDE doesn't exist anymore, UFC bought it out. PRIDE when they used to host fights actually put more money into the production, do main card fighters get a special entrance in UFC? No? Thought so. PRIDE wasn't stacked, every good fighter left for UFC since they got paid more. The only good fighter left was few Japanese fighters and Fedor Emelikenko. So now technically UFC has better fighters.

I can't stand retarded comments like this. you realize that thc metabolites remain in the fat cells and urine for weeks after you smoke, if you are a regular smoker. no pro fighter, especially not one as good as diaz, would smoke before a fight. he did say that he smokes after training to ease the pain and relax, instead of popping a bunch of vicodin or drinking. I have boxed high and not high, and i'm more crisp and aggressive when not high.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I know..it was too bad PRIDE killed themselves with shady business men. The entrances were beautiful...who gets an entrance with big titan trons flashy white lights and snow falling from the ceiling in the UFC?...no one.

I am well aware that UFC acquired Pride. When I was referring to the production value of Pride, I was not talking about how people enter the ring. I was talking about:

1) How during the TV show, the camera stops showing the fight and focuses on some random Japanese person in the crowd. When we are shown the fight again, a few minutes have elapsed. Its a crappy effect. Just show the whole fight, boring parts and all.

2) Sometimes the bright lights shine down on the mat and make the thing so white that it can be hard to look at.

3) Not that Joe Rogan has ever said anything intelligent, but the Pride commentators left much to be desired.

Are you kidding me. The few times that rogan did not commentate they had Randy coutoure taking his place and the show was not the same.

Joe Rogan knows his sh!t. He is a brown belt in jiu-jitsu and has an eye for the tiniest of details. Joe rogan is awesome. The best commentator in MMA by far.

Did anyone see the Penn stevenson fight? I missed it. I am excited about brock lesnar being in the UFC. I actually think he is going to do well. he is a division 1 wrestler with freakish strength. I don't know about you guys but I have beating frank mir. He will win by decision and the fight will be fought on the ground were Lesnar will be on top of him.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
