  • How to Lose 20+ lbs in January 2011

    This is probably the only diet post you will ever need. Over the past year, I have helped many friends, both in person and on the internet, quietly lose a lot of weight, probably in the realm of several hundred pounds total, sometimes even in 30 days. It’s not something I’m known for online, but it…

  • How To Recognize an Idiot

    Do you have a New Year’s resolution you wish more people would make? I do. I wish we would stop acting like we know what we’re talking about, even when we don’t. Everyone is so proud of their ignorance in this world that it baffles me. So can everyone just do me a personal favour…

    This is an actual traffic graph for my website last week. Traffic in general increased by 439%. Traffic from Twitter increased by 10 times. I know it sounds like a line straight out of Cash4Gold, but it’s true. I used no special tricks. I did not pull any favours. I did the same amount of…

  • Stop being a fucking pussy

    Ok, you want to be successful. You think you’re trying your hardest. Dammit you are pretty sure you’re gunning for it, really hard! But here is the truth: You’re not. In every industry, there is an edge. In your business or personal life, it doesn’t matter– somewhere, there is a cliff. Most people don’t want…

    Candid documents released by Wikileaks on Tuesday have revealed all social media experts to actually be “the exact same individual,” the Guardian reported. “Paul from Miami,” as he is identified in Wikileaks documents, appears to be the source of an entire industry of Twitter experts who seemingly give the same advice and yet somehow all…
