"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.

Man, I was so tempted to buy one that I saw in a thrift store a couple weeks ago for ten bucks. Then I could put in all those goddam phone numbers of companies that phone with pre-recorded messages, and could repeatedly phone them back when I'm not home.

"Hello! Your automated calling machine keeps phoning telling me about your special offers. Well, I have a special offer for you too! Act now, and you can suck my balls and lick the 5hit out of my arsehole for as long as you keep me on your calling list!"

Maybe I should go back and see if it's still there. :)
 

"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.

Get it man. You can put it on eBay, for 99 cents and 20 bucks shipping. Make money..

As for calling them, I once done it.. Using windows dialer. Setup dial up connection and keep on dialing them, automatically.. Thing with that is that it didn't give me satisfaction.

Instead, I can block thier number now. I'm on earthlink phone and internet, $65 a month, and all I have to do is go online and add a number I don't want calling me.

The person answering the phone at the company is probably some poor schmuck making 8 bucks an hour. There's no point in annoying him. It won't help anything.
