"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.

With 2006 almost over, what high profile individual/s (be it from entertainment, politics, religion, etc.) most irritated and annoyed you this year (compared to others) and please give a valid (serious or humorous) reason why, for each person/s named.
 

"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.

Every politician who used attack ads when running for office. Instead of talking about why you should vote for them they just tell you why you shouldn't vote for their opponent. Madness... :crazy:

No, he's not. He's a laughing stock. He is/was a special guest anyway, minus the special bit.

Me, for being such a great guy, a superior human being, and an extraordinary example of humanity at its best.

My greatness sometimes irritates me!

Talking of WWE, I am going to say Vince McMahon for fvcking up ECW and making wrestling a big joke and using it to promote racism and political propoganda! TNA is where it's at now!

(I'm a secret wrestling fan btw, but don't tell anyone)

Of course, the US government must go on this list, but that's politics and has no place on here.

That's the way to do it though. Anyone can say I'm a good canidate for office because I'll wh0re out the country's money to (insert a bunch of special happy thoughts here), but really in secert, I plan to multiply the nuke collection in Alaska.

So, why do something that's been tried? So, that's why you say 'Don't vote for him because he hates little boys'. It's more effective.
