Relationship Game Week: Agree and Amplify | Chateau Heartiste 7/24/19, 12�25 PM Relationship Game Week: Agree And Amplify | Chateau Heartiste 7/24/19, 12)25 PM Feeds: Posts Comments Relationship Game Week: Agree And Amplify August 13, 2009 by CH Relationships are merely a continuation of pickup by other means. Just as she must never forget to keep in shape for your pleasure, you must never stop gaming your girl. The day you slip into complacence is the day her love begins to show signs of stress. Relationships may change but the Game remains the same. There seems to be a mistaken belief among the betacracy that game may be good for pickup but it’ll do nothing at best, and sabotage at worst, your prospects for a long and healthy relationship. These are the beliefs of weak and nutless men who habitually dumpster date women way under their own market value so that they can go on acting like Dr. Phil castrati without consequence. They are also the beliefs of fat and ugly women. Beta men = fat and ugly women. The resemblance is uncanny! Naturally, the first few hours, days, and weeks of a courtship will be more exhilarating than the years to follow. After the brash novelty has faded and love begins to take root a mutually comfortable sufficiency will assert itself. An implicit bargain has been struck and there comes an expectation, not wholly removed of anxiety, that your partner isn’t going to bolt, run away, or suddenly despise you from one day to the next. But soft expectations so often morph into hard demands, and then the misalignment with reality begins in earnest. “If I got fat/beta, would you still love me???” Eventually, no. As with demographics and economics, there is a lag time in sexual dynamics. This lag time gets longer the more established the relationship becomes. A man who commits one glaring beta act on the approach isn’t going to get more than a few seconds with his target before she blows him out. But a man who has been seeing a girl for two years has to run up a litany of beta fouls before his woman’s love finally dissolves under the onslaught of her mounting disgust. A lower energy, consistent level of relationship game different only in degree, not kind, from pickup game, must be a part of every man’s arsenal of perpetual sexiness. One thing you will not fail to notice with women is that their shit tests never end, they just fade away… to less annoying frequency. A handy chart demonstrating this female proclivity to endlessly take stock of your alpha cred should make things clear: file:///Users/ur/repos/ur/archive/heartiste/2009/08/13/relationship-game-week-agree-and-amplify/index.html Page 1 of 204 Relationship Game Week: Agree And Amplify | Chateau Heartiste 7/24/19, 12)25 PM The Average Man # and Intensity of Female Shit Tests First few minutes Rapid fire shit tests designed to weed out betas First few dates One or two shit tests per date, less crass, more subtle Post-sex Possible “I didn’t cum” shit test. Ignore it. First few weeks Shit tests become less obnoxious, more defensive; (“Are you always this late?”) First few months Non-verbal shit tests increase in frequency; she waits for you to call instead of picking up phone herself. Six months later Endearing love and romance shit tests begin to flare up; (“You hardly ever give me flowers.” “Do you love me?”) One year in Provider shit tests in full swing; (“Why don’t you buy yourself a bigger place?” “You never tell me what you do at work.”) Two years in “Life purpose”, marriage, and infidelity shit tests; (“Where are we going with this?” “Bob just popped the question to Sarah. Aren’t you happy for them?” “Are you cheating on me?”) Thirty years in Regret and death shit tests; (“The kids are gone. I’m not in love anymore.” “Would you wipe my spotted ass when I’m an invalid?”) If you aren’t a natural at deflecting shit tests of all varieties, then you must teach yourself. For those men not blessed with the quickness of mind and aloofness of temperament to handle shit tests like a champ, a system must be devised. I’ve found one. I call it the Agree & Amplify anti-shit test counterinsurgency. The concept is simple. When you are hit with a shit test, agree with your girl, and then amplify your agreement. Here are some examples: GIRL: “Why didn’t you call last night? Are you dating someone else?” YOU: “Yep, I’ve got a harem to service. Be happy you’re in the top tier.” file:///Users/ur/repos/ur/archive/heartiste/2009/08/13/relationship-game-week-agree-and-amplify/index.html Page 2 of 204 Relationship Game Week: Agree And Amplify | Chateau Heartiste 7/24/19, 12)25 PM *** GIRL: “Are you just going to sit around all day playing video games?” YOU: “Damn straight. With enough hard work I should be able to push this to a full month.” *** GIRL: “We’re going to that restaurant again?” YOU: “Yeah, and because you’ve bitched, we’re going there for the next ten years.” *** GIRL: “Sometimes you can be such an asshole. My ex knew how to treat a lady.” YOU: “I bet he did. You should beg him to take you back. I could use the peace and quiet.” *** GIRL: “Don’t you have any ambition in life?” YOU: “Zero. Could you be a dear and hook up my feeding tube?” *** GIRL: “I didn’t like the way you flirted with that girl at the party tonight.” YOU: “I know, I’m an incorrigible flirt. Good thing you didn’t see the other ten girls I flirted with. Phew!” *** GIRL: “You never get me flowers or write me poetry.” YOU: “You’re right. Just think of my cock as a flower and our fucking as poetry in motion.” *** GIRL: “I think we should take this slower.” YOU: “You read my mind! Can I pencil you in next month?” *** GIRL: [Making it obvious she’s flirting with another guy in your presence.] file:///Users/ur/repos/ur/archive/heartiste/2009/08/13/relationship-game-week-agree-and-amplify/index.html Page 3 of 204 Relationship Game Week: Agree And Amplify | Chateau Heartiste 7/24/19, 12)25 PM YOU: “Hey, if you’re gonna try to make me jealous by flirting in front of me, at least put on a good show. I haven’t seen bad flirting like that since your Mom tried to pick me up.” *** GIRL: “Buy me a drink.” YOU: “Sure thing. Would you like my ATM pin number as well?” *** GIRL: [Calls you back two days after you left her a message.] YOU: “Only two days later? Wow, you’re slipping. A true player waits a year before calling back.” *** GIRL: “I really feel we aren’t compatible.” YOU: “You’re right, we’re *totally* incompatible. I like to wake up at 8:30 and you get up at 8:15. Who can live with that?!” This last one is especially interesting, because no matter how compatible you are with a girl, she is compelled by an otherworldly force to wonder aloud how incompatible you both are. Expect to receive this shit test around month three. Women have to work through their gina demons, and the issue of “compatibility” is a biggie. For men, if our dicks fit inside her pussy, we’re compatible. For women, a whole host of arcane connections must be made before she can feel you are “the one”. The Agree & Amplify method is the only acceptable response. If you two are incompatible, arguing with her will only highlight that. If you two are compatible, pointing out all the ways you are compatible will only cause her to search more fervently for those few ways you aren’t compatible. Agreeing with her, whether or not she’s right, and making fun of her concerns, is the best way to make her forget all about the issue. So to all the verbally hamstrung betas, when (not if) you find yourselves confronted by yet another shit test, instead of wracking your brain for the appropriate response just recall the words “Agree & Amplify”. A&A, A&A, A&A. Say it to yourself over and over, and the right answer will come to you.

Publish this shit on paper and you’ll be able retire. Encolpius on August 13, 2009 at 1:06 pm When I’m writing emails or text messages, generally work related, my girlfriend frequently gets nosily entitled and asks who I’m writing to. About two times in five, I tell her “my other girlfriend”. I’ve been doing this for three years, and it still works like a charm. Women are surreal. ironrailsironweights on August 13, 2009 at 1:10 pm GIRL: I’m going to shave. ME: [sound of vomiting] Peter ASDF on August 13, 2009 at 1:11 pm Maybe it’s because I haven’t been in a relationship longer than a steady Friday night drinking/F-buddy for six weeks, but my first thought at reading those questions was to say “OMG Stop nagging me! Who cares what you think?!” Seeking Alpha on August 13, 2009 at 1:12 pm Yea, I’ll get a lot of ‘where are you going?’ or ‘who was that?’ or whatever.

  • Boom Operator's Coin/Card Rules
    Fellow Boom Operators, Thank you for making 2018 another outstanding year. Continually, anyone with a background in tankers can see how busy we are by watching the news. Booms around the world provided POTUS support, disaster relief, refueled conflicts in the Middle East, and executed countless coronets, AE missions, and hours of alert. At home, we stayed busy focusing on technical skills such as MITO, chemical defense operations, cargo loading, and integrated missions. Despite this, we continued to develop professionally and personally. The cover of this year’s edition features a photograph from the first KC-46 delivery ceremony at McConnell AFB. Though it occurred this year on 25 January 2019, it wouldn’t have been possible without professionals everywhere completing testing, writing guidance, conducting training, and getting the airfield ready. The work of the last few years brought us the Pegasus in 2019. As we look to the future, we’ll no doubt see continued changes. Though some of these initiatives may change, cancel, or return, I know our career field is always ready and tackles challenges when required. Thank you for serving our great nation, answering the call of duty, and taking care of the Airman to your left and your right. As always, no one kicks ass without tanker gas! //Signed// CHRISTOPHER M.

  • Black Technical and Professional Communication November 30, 2020, 1:30 PM Eastern | Transcript
    !1 Black Technical and Professional Communication November 30, 2020, 1:30 PM Eastern | Transcript" Opening Remarks Jennifer Sano-Franchini: [0:00:00] So, hi, I'm Jennifer Sano-Franchini, my pronouns are she/her/hers and I'm Associate Professor of English and Director of Professional and Technical Writing at Virginia Tech. # # And I just want to begin this event with a land acknowledgement. Although we've come together today from many di$erent places, many of the resources that made this event possible are coming from Virginia Tech. And I want to acknowledge the land-based history that's contributed to our ability to come together today. # # Virginia Tech rests on the traditional homelands of the Tutelo/Monacan people who have a continuing connection to the land Virginia Tech currently occupies. Our presence on this land is a consequence of colonization, forced displacement and genocide of indigenous people. Virginia Tech also sits on former plantation land worked by enslaved Black people, including the Fraction McNorton and Saunders families, amongst numerous others, who contributed to the creation and emergence of Virginia Tech as a major land-grant university. # # [0:00:58] Although a land acknowledgement alone is not enough, it's an important social justice practice that makes visible the history and ongoing e$ects of systemic inequality in our society. With this recognition, we commit to educating ourselves about the local histories of the places we occupy, contextualizing our learning by deeply engaging with Native American and Black intellectual traditions, and attending to the impacts of our actions and our work on Black, Indigenous and other minoritized communities.
