I feel like the general vibe of America right now is “it’s time to stuff the nerds back in the lockers”

Making sure your kid is “cool” should be talked about more Most of life is better if you’re not a fuckin dork

Things I learned as a new parent:

The zoomer mind can never comprehend this

It’s wild how in your late 20s & early 30s you start seeing the “hot girls” from high school/college that stayed single settling The reality hits and 6’5”, Trust fund, Finance, Blue eyes Turns into 5’9, Bad Hairline, Senior Manager, Big Sports Fan

How the hell aren’t there gyms in airports yet? You could charge $50-$100 for a day pass

Bend the fucking world to your will, brother Start building the thing this weekend. Take the first step. Buy a domain name and make a logo. Do ANYthing. Join the nicest gym in your area & get yourself a fresh gym fit Clean out the pantry and freezer. Throw out all the junk (well… not ALL of it) Get your bloodwork done & take action on the results Don’t be a virgin. Don’t be a creep. Get an expensive haircut. Wear your favorite outfit. By the same one in different colors. Be hyper specific on what you want and write it down/say it out loud. Don’t use dollar amounts - use end states. (I’m the least woo woo person ever… this works) Carve out time to think, write, and read. This will make you more money. Don’t fall for the trap. There is no freedom without building your own thing. I’d go as far as to say there is no real self actualization without building your own thing. Be a great friend to your friends. If you want a village you need to be willing to be a villager. Turn the charm on for an old lady. Put effort into your morning coffee and enjoy it. Find something you actually want to work on. Address your issues with yourself and others. Keep your promises to yourself. Make lists. Ask yourself what it’s going to take before you start trying to be an elite person. Why not right now? You can just decide that you’re going to see what the best version of you looks like.

The problem with all these healthy deodorants and soaps is that they don’t fuckin work

Craziest dating story I’ve ever heard A friend of a friend went on a few dates with a guy in NYC They were getting on well and the relationship was progressing after a few weeks One night she tells him she’s going out with her friends to have a girls night Guy goes full psycho Calling, texting, leaving voicemails… the whole 9 yards When she gets home late that night he shows up to her apartment and starts banging on the door and yelling at her For whatever reason, she let him in but said he was scaring her and locked herself in her room After 10ish minutes he starts banging on her bedroom door like a psycho again She calls the police They come to the apartment and arrest the guy After he’s gone they ask her to open the door but tell her not to come out After talking with the police officer in her room for a few minutes she insists on going out into the apartment There was a blue plastic tarp laid out across the living room floor with a whole bunch of torture/murder tools like knives and pincers Craziest shit I’ve ever heard in my life Idk if you ever recover from that

Bro 😂 Can you imagine the balls on these dweebs? Which guru told you this was gonna work?

Becoming a parent showed me that there are only two classifications of person in the world: Parents and Non-Parents The non-parents will never under any circumstances fully understand the parents and the difference it brings to your life I look back at pre-parent me like “you sweet little innocent boy”

I’m married My wife is more attractive than any woman you’ve ever spoken to My socks fit better I’m taller than you My barber lines up a beard better My wallet has more CC’s than yours My dad will beat your dad in a race My best friend picks up my calls faster than yours I warm up with your max on bench I fold clothes better than you I was picked in gym class before you I never forget someone I meets name My dog’s sense of smell is better than yours I colored inside the lines better than you I tie my shoe laces tighter I can hang a TV straighter than you My cast iron pan is more seasoned than yours

Serious question. Why. the. fuck. do we spend so much time on Helen Keller in school?

You can literally just do shit You’re one multi-hour YouTube and AI session away from knowing more than 95% of the world about a topic If you start tonight you can add an entirely new source of money, knowledge, or enjoyment to your life by Jan. 1

One time in college I was trying to break up a fight between my frat and the football team One of the Cornerbacks(D1) two hand shoved me in the chest And in that moment I learned the difference between D1 athletes and the rest of humanity Felt like I got hit by a Hummer

I’m very curious about this 👇 What time do you wake up? (Please include what you do and if you’re a parent)

Outside of marriage and having kids What's had the most positive impact on your life? What has actually moved the needle?

I have a big decision to make Current gym: Lifetime $230/mo ~17 minute drive Premier location with full amenities Quality equipment but more “casual” New option: Bodybuilding gym ~5 minute drive $135/mo INSANE equipment Less amenities

If you had to put a % number on it How much more work is 2 dogs vs 1 dog? Do I invite this chaos?

The zoomer mind can never comprehend this

Can anyone provide a real answer as to why someone doing multiple millions per month with ecommerce would start focusing on selling how they got there vs. continuing to scale said brand? There is no legitimate answer

This is a long one folks - lock-in Two years ago today I launched the Pre-Sale for Ramp Health (Technically tomorrow but no one reads Twitter on Saturdays) I'll never forget that day. We sold $1200 of product. It was the first time I'd ever made more than $50 from an entrepreneurial pursuit. It absolutely blew my mind Then a year later we updated the formula and branding taking all of the feedback from the previous year and applying it to make a better-tasting, more effective, and more aesthetic product I had (and still have) no clue if this was the way to do things but it was based on what I saw other successful brands doing and felt right We're not bankrupt yet so I guess it was the move? Regardless, this has been an insane journey so far. It's almost incomprehensible that it's been two whole years What's even crazier is that I am self-employed I've never stated this publicly before but on my 30th birthday I told myself that if I wasn't self-employed by 35 I would consider it the biggest failure of my life We did it at 33.5 boys and girls! (I turn 34 next week) Okay... enough reminiscing and self-fellatio Let's get to the REAL reason for this post You may have noticed that my display name has been updated And if you did you also might be asking yourself "Why is Buon Giorno spelled wrong and wtf is Aurenza?" Well... let me answer these hypothetical questions no one actually asked me Bongiorno happens to be my actual last name (Government name as the kids say) Yes, I'm really this guinea. I have not been larping. Aurenza is my new brand 🤌 (No, Ramp isn't going anywhere) About this time last year I, being the observant genius that I am, saw a problem that wasn't being addressed: All the homies love & use nicotine Nicotine is great and has a lot of benefits But... not without cost Those costs include vital nutrients being burned more rapidly & fatigue among others Enter 3-Plenic - the first product to be released under the Aurenza brand It's an expertly crafted, US Made daily supp meant to be taken by all my Nicotine loving friends to help reduce harm from usage (formula below) It is also the only product of its kind (shocked me too tbh - call me the Steve Jobs of supplements) 3-Plenic will be available for pre-purchase in the next week or so and is expected to begin shipping out early June Aurenza is an expression of "me" as a brand It blends Italian Craftsmanship & Luxury with American innovation & excellence (yes, this is how I think of myself) All products will be of the highest possible quality, held to the highest standards, and made on US soil I don't care if it's too early to be "excited" I'm excited And I hope after reading this you are too Aurenza - The art of living well
