"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.

Anybody have anything to say about the football World Cup qualifiers? Tiny Northern Ireland, 116th in the world and a "statelet" of 1.7 million people, beat 7th-ranked England 1-0 in Belfast. I never thought I'd abandon the English like this, but well done to Norn Iron. It really WAS just like watching Brazil. That's the real magic of football right there, and why the whole world loves this beautiful game. I have a lot more to vent about the ridiculously abysmal performance by England, but I was curious about what the rest of you thought about the action all over Europe.

Damnit... at least the cricket starts tomorrow...
 

"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.

About England - lets face it, Sven's a complete and utter joke.
None of his tactics make the slightest bit of sense - that 4-5-1 with Rooney on the left wing was never gonna work, he didn't go for the standard 4-4-2 because it would have required him to make a tough decision about who to drop out of midfield (i.e. one of Gerrard, Lampard, Beckham and Wright-Phillips).
Personally, considering Lampard's not been on form recently, and the fcat that he doesn't seem to play well with Gerrard, I'd have left Lampard out, played Cole left, Wright-Phillips right, and Gerrard and Beckham in the centre (trust me, I took Crewe Alex into Europe on Championship Manager :D )
But fvcking Sven, lets please just get him out, hes sh!te!

when bielorussia scored a goal after 4 minutes, i was extremely worried, then within 10 minutes, our beloved luca toni scored 3 goals and mauro camoranesi gave us the 4-1 just before the end of the first half:)
viva l'italia!




p.s.: nice job adriano, with another 3 goals after the 3s scored against treviso last week

Mexico beat the crap out of Panama, 5-0. And is in first place, USA in second. Yeah, US beat us last game, but they lost as visitors.

Oh, and Netherlands rocked hard. They seem to be back bigtime.
 

"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.

Jay-X,

Do you think Scotland can make it out of Italy's group? I used to laugh at any sentence with the words "Scottish" and "football" in it, but Walter Smith must've done something to those boys. I really think they can make it.

i doubt you can get to the 1st place, since we just have to draw in a home match against slovenia or moldova:)
but i think you should get to the 2nd place: i saw your match against us and you were really good compared to lots of other teams i saw
