fake tits + thongs + football + monster trucks + 3 stooges + Scarface = HUGE cliche'

I'm offended.

a huge geek is what you get...

i haven't said anything snarky all day, so let me say, with the deepest of contemporary irony & parody possible: this post is really gay.

i forgot to add: nice T & A, though.

touche

Just join the fuckin republican party already. You are a goddam cliche and you thing you're "politically incorrect" or some such shit.

=\\/\//= 4 life!!!

@7: Why would posting something like this also demand that a person join the Republican Party?

I'm extremely confused?

Is it because of the monster trucks? The Pabst?

Because as far as I know there are plenty of Democrats who enjoy gorgeous breasts, asses, monster trucks, football (and crazy football injuries) the Three Stooges and Pabst.

But you know why they call them stereotypes or cliches? Because generally they are true.

"Cliche:An expression so often used that its original power has been drained away"

... the power of those asses most certainly has not been drained away, I would argue.

"stereotype n. A conventional, formulaic, and oversimplified conception, opinion, or image. One that is regarded as embodying or conforming to a set."

Somehow the equation seems perfectly balanced.

Well four out of six of those things are indeed great. Pabst swilling hipsters and Republicans not so great.

The left could actually use a little more Montana, more cojones, you know what I mean man?

Then, of course, Frizzelle goes and posts a photo of hot shirtless boys directly following this.

The straights just don't got it today. Come on heteros, try harder or don't try at all!

Despite everything, Adrian still wins. Always.

@1.

I fear for that shirt. It may not survive the night.

Also, baby oil: best invention ever?

Jay: They're called Washington State progressives.

15: You mean pabst swilling hipsters? Oh, I know.

Alright, forget I said "Republican." I'll change it: I can buy this shit on sitcoms, scrape it from the internet by the ton, hear it out of the mouths of the most braindead around me. It's a cheapass readymade construct, and to see writers on Slog pick it up and wear it as if it made them rebels is just depressing.

Jay: Cojones come in a hundred forms. Broaden your mind a bit.

did you see the picture of the football? the ankle in the picture of the football? go and look again. ouch! ouch ouch ouch! not gay at all. too much ouch for gay.

My mind is pretty broad thank you very much. I can enjoy these things and still sit down and sip Chimay while watching Ozu films, or blast Angizia while reading Borges stories. The things posted are generic, but they're not all without merit. The trick is distancing yourself from mass audiences enough to be able to appreciate what they like without feeling generic, or you know, develop your own tastes independent of who likes it or doesn't. In this way, I can enjoy Scarface, sports, and inflated tits, but also listen to post black metal or watch a Michael Mann marathon. :)

Scarface is a fun and era defining film, one of the definitive cocaine movies of the 1980s. There's nothing wrong with it. Best watched as a double feature with Wall Street.

@7 and gang.

You know what's dull and cliche? Taking the bait on this.

Jonathan Spangenthal-Lee may've post4ed this but you've gone to far when you insult everything Kelly O is about. That woman is no republican and I suspect she loves everything in that picture, plus guns.

Dude.

You know what I liked about this post?

Somebody said "These are things I like." Not "These are things that make me a man" or "My preferences are better than yours".

Rock the fuck out indeed. I don't care if you're being ironic or not.

although...Pabst? Come on. I can take or leave football and monster trucks (and I like my boobs less, you know, globular), but PABST?

I'll buy you real beer. (well, the first round or two.)

Well, I probably enjoy everything on the list to varying degrees, Jay, and you're right that stripping cliches of their cultural traffic to get at what's good does take some skill. But that's not what's going on here. We're supposed to find the cultural freight tied to the cliches here somehow daring, which suggest that both author and intended readership are probably pretty twee.

Put it this way: There are women who like shoes and chocolate but would (rightly) throw up in their mouths if Erica Barnett posted about how we all know what women love most is shoe shopping and chocolate, yuk yuk. Ditto here. I feel like I've been dropped into a sports radio morning show.

For the record, I wasn't saying my tastes had anything to do with balls, I certainly wasn't equating having balls politically with monster trucks and football. Cojones was a reference to Scarface. Jeeze Louise.

Andy: there is definitely some truth to that.

People who throw the horns are the least rocking people around.

Ugh. I can stomach the stories of fathers going postal on their families, but I can't stomach the photo of a leg snapped in half. Please don't do that.

That all-terrain vehicle is almost entirely obscured by a bunch of women.

Couldn't you have found a clearer picture?

oh man. why do you have to show that tyron prothro injury. i was at that game. not only did my florida gators lose 31-3, but that injury was horrible. especially since alabama was WAY up by that point. prothro has had three surgeries to that leg now, and he still can't run!

Buster McLeod must be so bummed to see these comments.

wow. that was a lot of the same post. apparently my mac doesn't like stealing wireless from my next door neighbor. i need to get the comcast guy out here quick.

1. I'm gay, don't care.
2. I'm gay, don't care.
3. Football is the second most boring sport in the world, after baseball.
4. Monster trucks are just all around stupid.
5. The Three Stooges fucking suck. The suck so bad. They're boring.
6. Scarface has a few good lines, but otherwise is a piece of shit.

If you combine them, you get the losers who are still working at Sonic flipping burgers in my hometown.

Rollerderby, now there's a man's spectator sport.

Football is boring. Although I'd argue cricket has both it and baseball topped for boringness.

All this stuff adds up to straight man with poor taste in my book.

jonah, i don't know how the fuck you left ranch dressing off that list.

Don't worry Kerri. This is the first of many lists yet to come.

All I've got to say is that the first picture is FANTASTIC!

That's all I've got to say about that...

For some reason I want to suck on tits right now.

I find it hilariously ironic that the holier-than-thou gay mafia throw a fit when anything that doesn't live up to their "ideals" is posted here. All of these thing rule - @36 fuck off.

I'll admit everything on this list has peak my interest at one point or another (except the Stooges...never really got it) however mixing them all together as the are here is a textbook recipe for douchbag. The problem with DBs is they revel in it and pointing out the douchbaggery only makes them stronger....better to work behind the scenes and go after their funding.

What I find even more troubling here is the PBR bashing. By no means the best beer but ounce for ounce $ for $ one of the finest alcohol delivery systems available. This beer is meant to be bought in bulk on the cheap and delivered to a house party or dragged down the street during a costumed footrace....I have many times convinced myself that I'm staying hydrated as I pass these out in the blazing sun to whoever need one simple cuz it goes down so smooth and so cold.....ahhhhh summertime. PBR will always have a place in my social tool kit...as useful as a 209 rocks with a twist or the finest Russian River Pinot.

Mike @ 43: "as useful as a 209 rocks with a twist or the finest Russian River Pino"

whos the douchebag now?

though, of course, youre 100% correct about PBR.

Good call jz....I could probably use an editor....and an ice cold PBRizzle!
