Did you know there are studies that show your “smartphone” may actually make you dumber.
From Psychology Today: “Cognitive capacity and overall brain power are significantly reduced when your smartphone is within glancing distance—even if it’s turned off and face down—according to a recent study. This new report from the University of Texas at Austin, ‘Brain Drain: The Mere Presence of One’s Own Smartphone Reduces Available Cognitive Capacity,’ was published in the Journal of the Association for Consumer Research.” –Christopher Bergland, June 25, 2017
What about texting ?
Texting all the time is another sign of a feeble mind.
The Wall Street Journal had an article last weekend on how a “sexting scandal”,The Sexting Scandal That Toppled One of America’s Most Powerful Lawyers” toppled a prominent lawyer, William Voge, who was Chairman at Latham and Watkins LLP. A woman toppled a man with whom she has never had a physical relationship.
The woman (Andrea Vassell): “You are insane if you think I am not coming after you with everything I have,” Men abuse and exploit women and then the church that is dominated by the male Elders steps forward and tells the women to forgive. That stupid shit-stops with me!”
“Don’t you think we both could be at fault ?”
You can read the entire story. These people weren’t even co-workers, they were members of a national group of Christian business people called The New Canaan Society.
What about taking all those selfies ?
Maybe to a larger degree than texting, taking selfies is a request for approval. Taking selfies is an interaction with your phone and with someone you are trying to impress. Can you watch your dopa-high request ? That phone in your hand is not just giving you a dopamine-high, but it’s also whispering: Anything you do with me can and will be used against you !
From now on, no more texting like a schoolgirl.
From now on, no more selfies.
If a coworker wants to take a selfie with you, say you don’t do any without your makeup on.
If a girl wants to take a selfie with you, say you charge 10 dollars.
“What are you, trying to steal my face, girl ?”
Note to the reader that said I write for people in their 20s:
This blog isn’t just for young people. If you’re 40, or 50, and you think you’ve got it made…Does that mean you can’t grow anymore ?
Once you’ve stopped growing, you might as well get a burying plot in the cemetery. You’re basically dead. All they got to do is pour cement on top of you. Some people discover the alpha male concept later in life. Maybe they’ve had a mid-life crisis. Maybe they’ve been a simp all their lives and didn’t even know it. People come to this blog to sharpen their edge. It’s never too late to change.

What's a simp ?
A male who seeks female validation. A Man who would throw another man under the bus to win over a woman. Blue pillers who believe in unicorns.

I heard this joke at our office:
" A simp called Adam dies and goes to Heaven. God questions him:
Adam, you found your true love, haven't you ?
Yes, God. I was married to Eve. Except…
Except what ?
I'm not so sure she was my true love anymore. She started saying: "Do you love me because I am beautiful or I am I beautiful because you love me?" She became petulant and repulsed by me.
Oh. Have you checked under the hood ?
Adam: No. She said my problem was soft news.
Overheard at a Jedi Panel:
"Woman is the natural enemy of man."
Then people said: “Shush! Do you want to wake everyone?”"
Wife : "I dreamt they were auctioning off dicks. The big ones went for ten dollars and the thick ones went for twenty dollars."
Husband : "How about the ones like mine?"
Wife : "Those they gave away."
Husband : "I had a dream too…I dreamt they were auctioning off cunts. The pretty ones went for a thousand dollars, and the little tight ones went for two thousand."
Wife : "And how much for the ones like mine?"
Husband : "That's where they held the auction."
