It is coming!
"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.
When the DRAFT comes, are you going to go where they tell you?

"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.

Pics or it didn't happen.
I mean, proof. Proof. That's what I mean.

The NFL Draft?
"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.

Yeah, right. The new boss will be the same as the old boss. Both parties serve corporate America.azanon said:

You mean there are actually people who believe that the Democrats or Republicans actually have the best interests of America in mind when they make political decisions?azanon said:

There has been legislation in the last few years to bring it about - it will be under the Democrats to be enacted! It is all a mind game - there is no difference in parties - the political Matrix!!

You have to be retarded to think there will ever be a draft in this country. It didn't blow over too well last time around. Our wars in the mideast are so unpopular, if the government started making military service mandatory the country would be up in arms. If forcedly sending me off to risk my life in in some sh1thole war that only serves the interest of a select few assho1es is what this country ever comes to, it won't be a country worth living in and I'll have no problem moving the hell out and never looking back. I owe nothing more than taxes to my government, and if they can't even handle that right, what makes you think I'd trust them with my life?
And yeah, in the grand scheme of things the democrats are hardly any better than the republicans, but the republican party has come under control of a group of fuccking evil, fanatical, absolutely corrupt people, and for that alone I'd be more comfortable having the war, or almost anything for that matter, in the hands of the democrats. Not to say I don't see that the US government is entirely rotten throughout, though.

...who will never be more than a 3rd-party candidate or a write-in vote. I wish I could go to the voting booth and have to choose between Ron Paul and Gore, not Giuliani or McCain and Hilary (*barf*). Ugh, americans are dumb.
"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 want to believe that, buttttttttt, those who control The Matrix will swallow him!!!Falcon said:
I would never go to war and invade a poor country such as Iraq. WTF did they ever do to us. The united states, israel and england are the biggest terrorist nations in the world. That being said there is no other place I would rather live than in the united states. (with the exception of a few western european nations, canada or australia.
And I would like to say anyone who enlists in the armed forces needs there head checked. If your a smart educated person than why the fvck would you go to the army. So you can be a security guard.

Nobody in the military would want the draft reinstuted.
Combat isn't an occupation you'd want a non-professional to due.
Not everyone can be a warrior, and you cant make a warrior out of somebody who doesn't want to be.
Everybody knows the draft makes a good army bad.

that is why we hire "sub-contractors" like blackwater(cool name) to do all of the dirty work. and we pay them more than our own military. they also cant be prosecuted in america or iraq. so basically they can do whatever the f**k they want.
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

There's no draft, but they do have 'stop loss' policies that essentially strongarm current soldiers into reinlisting. What they do is threaten you with Iraq if you don't reinlist, as well as squeezing as much Iraq time as possible out of the inactive reservists who they know won't re-up.
My cousin did a tour of Iraq as a medic. He literally got splattered with blood several times, because his fellow soldiers tended to get chosen by the snipers. It's rough on a 19 y/o to ask him to patch up a dying friend, try to convince the medevac that the guy who got shot was worth the risk of sending a chopper, and not get shot himself all at the same time. It's even rougher when they won't risk a pilot's life to come get the wounded, and he gets to watch them die and wonder if he had been more persuasive on the radio, then maybe his friend would have lived and not bled to death in the desert...
Then after he does his time and gets back in one piece, they tell him to sign another 4-year contract. The choice is a giant signing bonus and a guarantee of a sweet stateside job in a hospital versus going right back to Iraq for another year. Some choice, he took the bonus and bought a new Jeep.

It has been in legislation/congress for the last six years - I didn't have to sight a bill because it is common knowledge! The age may be up to 47.The Inside Man said:

I read that the bill was sponsored by liberal Democrat named Rangel who was just trying to make a point. He knew it would never pass.

ALL PERSONS? Does that mean girls too? That could get dangerous! Giving loaded guns to a ditzy, club-hopping, PMS-ing 18 year old drama queen? For the love of God, don't tell her khaki makes her thighs look fat!The Inside Man said:
"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.
