Get iCourage. The Rejection Therapy iPhone App is Here
- chrisaycock 16y agoGetting rejected builds character.
- Tichy 16y agoMaybe, sometimes. I am not sure if practicing to ask for discounts builds character, though? What if the process turns you into a sleazy salesman?
- risotto 16y agoCan I get a discount on this app?
- Supermighty 16y agoThis is freak'n awesome.
- MyNinja 16y agowhat happens when a pretty young girl tries to overcome her fear of rejection and asks the wrong stranger for a ride? ...she dies. This thing is pretty silly if you ask me.
- adamfeldman 16y agoUse common sense
- dreaming 16y agoI can't seem to find common sense in the itunes store, is it perhaps under a different name?
- yters 16y agoIs our fear of rejection part of common sense?
- wallflower 16y ago> Use common sense Read "The Gift of Fear" by Gavin de Becker. Highly recommend it for anyone who wants to know more about how to protect yourself. tldr: Trust your instincts. They have been honed by many, many iterations. http://tgace.wordpress.com/2008/11/07/the-gift-of-fear/ http://tgace.wordpress.com/2008/11/07/the-gift-of-fear/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Gift_of_Fear http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Gift_of_Fear
- edburgess 16y agoI don't know if you've ever read the Bible, but in Joshua 1:9 God says "Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid". God was telling Joshua and the Israelites the formula for success. I'd take The Book's word over what your book says any day.
- pavel_lishin 16y agoI have a book that tells me I can't own people. It's kind of a short read, but they keep adding amendments...
- Rubyred 16y agoSweet. I noticed there's 6 more suggestion cards in the app. The Game Crafter deck only has 30.
- nanijoe 16y agoPeople are now advertising their iphone apps here? The poster's handle had 3 karma points before this post, and was created 42 days ago.
- nanijoe 16y ago..And to make matters more interesting, I'm getting downvoted for my observation. (Probably by the guy who is trying to promote his iphone app here)
- pauledwards 16y agoHow could I have downvoted you? I only have 3 karma points (well, it's growing a bit now, but still).
- billhasmail 16y agoThrough the power of multiple accounts. Assuming you are just spamming your app, are there any interesting technical details you might like to share to make this less about spamming and more about sharing?
- ams6110 16y agoit's rejection therapy
- lhnz 16y agoWell that definitely sounds like a conspiracy since there's no other reason people would downvote you...
- sims 16y agoI don't see a problem with it. I say put it out there and see if it's of interest to the HN clan. By inhibiting yourself, you're only depriving yourself of an audience who might be genuinely interested.
- csytan 16y agoWho cares? Hundreds of submissions a day are deemed uninteresting by HNers. This one at least hit the front page on its own merit.
- ritonlajoie 16y agoThat's a great app idea but that bothers me to pay for suggestion cards. I understand there is work behing the hood for the iPhone application but still. Does anyone know a website with some free example cards decks to print out ?
- liuhenry 16y agoNot exactly "cards", but there was an effort made on a previous topic to create a list of ideas: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1755561 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1755561
