"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.

Who's going to see "Joker" on opening night?

"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 a strong enough frame, the bullets will bounce right off you.
D'oh! Of course!

Still, it wouldn't do to use that to shield your date. Wouldn't want to be accused of being a white knight, she might see that as beta behavior. And don't forget to make a c0cky/funny remark after she gets shot. And maybe a mild neg: That dress really looked good on you - until you got the blood on it.

As Mystery would say: "You can dress her up, but you can't take her anywhere".

This is a nice break from the barrage of bad and mediocre movies DC has been making. This movie is thrilling and engaging. All of the characters are acted well. They definitely make the writing better because some of the lines wouldn't be good without Joaquin Pheonix. This is a must-see for everyone, not just Joker fans.
