The Age comes out at night. Are you a victim of IOAYKI?  - TheTableofTruth.com

Hey.. Hey… fuckkkkkk!

That’s how my body gets when its 3 am and I am half drunk, thinking about how the hell am I going to get home. I just had about 9 drinks… Yes, my team is weekend alcoholics and once we start, you better not be a light weight. When I’m bent, I find myself in bars or lounges staring at people for no damn reason at all or just with the mad face. If you know me I tend to keep a mean face on when I am not feeling it. Don’t we all get like that???? I’ve come to realize I can’t have 9 drinks and act like I am having a good time. And I can’t dance for 7 hours anymore… Hold on, hold on… sorry about that, if a good ass DJ is rocking the turn tables then maybe I can put the legs in over time.

I know somebody is going through the same problems so I took some time to do some research myself and came up with a name for the problem. If you’re feeling like you’ve had too many and your two step is now a two step and a stumble. This feeling is called “It’s over and you know it” (IOAYKI) Syndrome. What that means is, when you get this sickness (and you will) it’s about time you start finding things to do before 10 pm because you can’t hang like you used to.

I knew something was wrong with me when I started sleeping on chairs in hotel lounges with a drink in my hand (Duane finds me all the time). I start asking myself “Why the fuck did I come out today?”

Yea, yea I am S.M.H as well but we all go through it no matter how much your dress cost, no matter how fly your outfit looks after 1 am and those drinks set in, it’s all downhill from there.

Here are some signs are have IOAYKI:

1. If you tell people this songs reminds you of your kids.

2. You keep looking at your damn watch.

3. Your ass is drunk after one shot!

So Instead of 12am, let’s hit the bar on a Saturday afternoon, eat some wings and maybe even take a walk and smoke some Mother Earth for second. After that it might be around 4 we can hit a spot with some music, drink for about an hour or so because of course is happy hour. When all said and done it’s around 930 and the trains are still running and you’re brain is still functioning.

Are you experiencing symptoms of IOAYKI? Has your tolerance become lighter than a ziplock bag full of fairy wings? Let’s talk about it because we all been there… 1

TOT - How to Avoid the Friend Zone - www.thetableoftruth.com
Fellas, we’ve all been there. You have been hanging out with a chick…oops… broad who you like but its always been undefined why you were hanging out. The conversation is dope. She’s into/tolerates the dumb hobbies you love (#nerdalert, fantasy sports, action movies etc.) She laughs at all your corny jokes. You guys talk every day via txt msg, facebook or gchat. You build up the courage to tell her how you feel and she responds…  ”I care for so much I don’t want to ruin our friendship…”
My friend welcome to the friend zone. The most dreaded category to be in the eyes of someone you’re attracted to. Mainly because you get all fun of being in a relationship (dinner dates, random hangouts, movie nights) with none of the benefits (dirty pics, make up sex, quickies during lunch.) I been in this game for you…uhh, it made me an animal, there’s rules to this shit… I wrote you a manual…
  1. Determine how you feel about this woman from jump. The longer you take to decide what you want from her: friend, girlfriend or roof jumper, the higher the chance is you’ll get that golden ticket to the friend zone like that fat kid in Willie Wonka.
  2. “Ayo, Are we dating? are we fucking? are we best friends? are we something in between that?” That’s a line from Childish Gambino – Heartbeat. But it speaks volumes. Don’t fuck around with this tip. Find out the nature of your relationship. Once you put this question out there though, understand you can’t take it back. A woman’s mind is like the Internet and neither ever forget.
  3. If you want her and she wants Tom, retreat and regroup. Some guys think persistence is key but to me, held wrong, persistence is the key to the friend zone door. If she clearly tells you she just wants to be friends, fall back and be friends from a distance. You can’t win her over with flowers, surprise dates to the movies or trips out of town. You will still be that friend at the end of the night… Just a really great friend. Great friends get kissed on the head but not the one you want.
  4. Don’t be Will to her Grace. You can’t be her best friend and discuss her cycle and console her when she thinks feels fat or unsexy. Let her bestie/BFF do that. For every carton of haagan daas you deliver at that time of the month the more comfortable you make your room at the Friendmada Inn.
  5. Don’t discuss anyone she’s currently dating. If she’s comfortable discussing other dudes (or maybe ladies) with you and asking for advice you are already in the friend zone homie. “So, I went on a date with this guy from work…” This is def con 5 right here. This is that Matrix moment when you realize you’ve been living a lie and the whole sexy lingerie world you thought you were living is really some other dudes sweatpants and over-sized shirts.
Follow these rules you’ll have mad bread to break up… Seriously, look at these rules as guidelines to a more relaxed life. Ending up in the friend zone when you wanted to land in her End zone is a horrible experience every man has to go through. But hopefully you’ll only have to do it once. Did I miss something? Are there any other tips I might have missed. Let me know in the comments section. I’m out and Death to the Friend Zone!

We’ve all been duped in the game of life. Whether it’s believing in Santa Claus when there isn’t a chimney in your apartment, let alone building. How about the Easter Bunny, tooth fairy, or Mr. Sandman, the list goes on and on. But what happens when you have a bit of common sense aka no more fairy tales from your parents, and are allowed to do research. If you ever get a chance to meet me, I’m full of useless information I shouldn’t retain. It’s so bad I won’t give you guys an example. So what happens when a movie from your pre-adolescent years has lied to you? Granted I know Coming to America is a fictional story. There is no real life Prince Akeem that came to Queens to find his Queen. What I thought was true was that Zumunda was a real country. They used Africa, America and Queens, why make up Zumunda? Why make a grown man realize that he should read a bit more and know things like this. Well at least I knew who Saul was when the credits rolled up. Couldn’t imagine how I would react if I found that out today.
