"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.

The basement dwellers are using Resident Evil as their source and people are eating up this shiet huh?

I wonder if I spread a rumour that eating rat fur will automatically make them immune, might help clear up all those basement dwelling pests and help keep the world a cleaner safer place.
who said chinese don't eat those already?
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

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.

bro dont ignore the wuhan. 5 of 100 people will die. theres a 5% chance you will die. thats a lot man. i wonder if ill get infected, i drink like 2-5 letters of water from tape per day. drinking so much water is good for flu but im not sure if the source of water wont get infected



btw thats interesting:

wuhan has at least two bioweapon labs! wow! i thought only one virus lab! Now the link is pretty clear! its incident, they tried to create super weapon that only they have cure for, but they had accident and probably before cure was inventent. Lol!
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Damn bastards let out 5 million galavanting wuhans before the lock down.

If and when things seems to get worse (on-site situational awareness), Iike everyone else, I trust you know when it's time to call it quits, and head back home.

You can't just put the current numbers in a spreadsheet and multiply everything exponentially for every day, that's not how it works. Get that sh!t out of here.

Besides, it's only about as contagious as the common cold but with a mortality rate of about 2%. If you have a functioning immune system you'll very likely just have a few sh!tty days, then you'll be completely fine and don't have to worry about it again because you've become immune.

It is worse than the flu, but compared to previous coronaviruses like MERS and SARS, this new one is pathetic. It should be taken seriously, but there's no reason to panic.

Ok.

All survivors prepare to assemble. Once the plague has passed you will have two options....

Heros are to make their way towards Hemmingford Home, Nebraska where you will await instructions from Mother Abigail.

Villains are to report immediately to Randall Flagg in Las Vegas and await further instructions.

May the odds be ever in your favor.

"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.

you dont know if its 2% because all the wuhan citizen were ordered to stay in home. for all we know it could be 10%. how do you think we can know whether they died or not?
 

"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.

This is how the media hook people. Create a panic, promise updates, let the clicks roll in. This is just the latest SARS/bird flu/foot in mouth/Ebola whatever. Sad that some people have died but until it affects you, it doesn't.

RIP Kobe.
kobe raped a woman tho. this virus is certainly more important than kobe unless youre basketball fan

china by mistake, attacked itself and other countries.
No mistake.

China is teetering on the brink of economic devastation.

The thing they fear most is an uprising.

Army is not big enough to quell the street light dance party.

So, they decided to proactively kill them.

That's why they purposely released it JUST as people were leaving for Lunar New Year.

This also solves the demographic time bomb.

Kill the oldest, sickest, and the working age folk are more of a majority.

From a immoral policy standpoint, this makes perfect sense.

It provides cover, keep people inside and terrified = no riot.

Kills the oldest and the weakest, the most likely to need government assistance as they grow old = no financial cliff.

Anyway, we're not all going to die from the latest virus of the week. Turn off MSNBC or Faux News or whatever garbage source you're using and get some fresh air.

And if we do die, well, we had a good run.
bro just you wait a month and you will see the panic in every country

We already have notices up at work to tell us what to do in the case of a suspected rotovirus patient.
BTW, if you're going to wear a mask, you might aswell wear eye protection too cos you can still contract through the eyes.

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
