Metrosexuals Come Out (marketing to the new feminized man)

That's something I certainly don't have to worry about! He believes that nails are made for biting off! He IS a winner! But you should have heard my mom when I first met him and told her about him! She was sure I had found a closet homosexual--you know, the flowers and all. But he's so good to her. She just now wonders how I got so fortunate! (So do I!)

In short, I believe in being presentable each and every day.

The trick, especially with men, is in making it look effortless, and making it look as though those clothes came together by magic, not as if you had to think about it or spend a lot of time on it.

You know what ZZ Top says: "Every girl crazy 'bout a Sharp Dressed Man".

Maker's? Cheap swill.

Woodford Reserve is where its at these days.

[Chancellor Palpatine]

They used them in a VERY cool way in "The Italian Job" (a great movie). But I'm not giving you any more movie recommendations, LOL.

[Constitution Day]

Cheap swill.

Heresy!! But I've tried Woodford Reserve and like it very much.

[ffusco]

Most people don't know that NY even has hillbillys- They forget about Appalachia, and the 6 million acres of forest upstate.

[wimpycat]

Why? Because I think Zoolander was one of the worst movies ever made and liking that movie is a character flaw?

[Chancellor Palpatine]

At $30-35 a bottle, its top notch, LOL.

Actually, if you notice the price differential between Maker's and ET, Beam or another middle brand, it is significant, for not a lot of increase in quality. As a result, for mixing whiskey, I keep a bottle of Beam handy.

[AAABEST]

That is good stuff. Makes Jack Daniels taste like crap.

[SLB]

Now I have seen and read it all. This is worthy of a Hillary barf alert at the very least.

[Chancellor Palpatine]

It was funny, and you know it. Tell me you didn't crack up over the gas station scene.

[rattrap]

They cornered like they were bolted down.

the new ones do too, i've seen them run at road atlanta, thet're definatly not reshelled beetles.

[wimpycat]

If Jack Daniels or Jim Beam, straight out of the bottle, with a Coke chaser, straight out of the bottle, isn't good enough for you, then you're both a couple of effete snobs.

[wimpycat]

I don't remember the gas station scene. I blocked the entire movie from my memory.

[Fzob]

Metrosexuals?

We used to call'em pussies.

[Chancellor Palpatine]

Jack Daniels

[shudder]

I hate going somewhere, ordering bourbon, and having somebody bring out that horse pi** instead.

Its just not right.

[Constitution Day]

Come to think of it, Zoolander was full of metrosexuals.

[Axenolith]

Minicoopers are the No-See-Ums of the highway...

[wimpycat]

AAAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHH!!!

[bc2]

the worst part is that we can't STAND the city (NYC that is) or most of the freaks that come from that infested hell-hole. Even in downtown Rochester, you can see the rolling hills of the Finger Lakes Region 30 miles south. (OK, so it ain't Vancouver, but we take what we get.)

As I said, even my gay friends are into drinking and shooting, one is even a metalhead! I would bet money any one of my 100% out-of-the-closet gay friends is STILL more manly than any of these "metrofags" from NYC.

UGH! No offense, but we are waiting for the day NYC becomes it's own district/state and the rest of New York can return to it's rural/hillbilly/redneck roots.
