Relationships

You know, we talk about bacon a lot. Really; bacon is one of those magical man foods that makes everything taste and smell delicious and wonderful, but I have to wonder- in the case of Bacon Lube… are you that ashamed of your junk that you need the attractive prowess of the world’s wonder meat to improve your own? Bacon Lube started out as an April Fools joke, and thanks to all the men on the net with more hunger and chest hair than brains, it is now a real product. I honestly can’t decide if this is the crowning achievement of civilization or if it’s the most retarded thing a man could possibly slather on his nether regions (and in this day and age, that’s really saying something.)

It’s been a while since I wrote for you guys about this sort of thing. I took a week and jetted off to Vegas (those of you who follow our Facebook page may have witnessed some of my drunken ramblings) and while I was there, I experienced a lot of offers for ‘free drinks.’ Buying girls drinks is one of those things that is starting to be viewed unfavorably by both sexes. As guys, you feel like every girl out there is a floozy out to take your money and run, and as girls, you feel like asshole bros are going to force feed you bad lines and cheap drinks so they can try to force feed you something else. This is ridiculous. What kind of state are we in in the dating world? The bar is hardly the place to find love – obviously- and you shouldn’t be throwing around money and alcohol to attract people to you. However, buying girls drinks can be fun, natural, and a great opener that will save you from being taken advantage of while helping her appreciate you as a no-pressure, normal guy.

The LIGHTBOYS are a designer and craftsman team out of Germany, and they specialize in creating ultra-flat, brilliant light and art hybrids. Frankly, The POLABOY, The LIGHTWALL and Rooftop Lights are some of the coolest pieces of art I’ve seen in ages, let alone awesomely interchangeable lighting solutions. Essentially, the LIGHTBOYS have created a process to enlarge photographs- either designer or your own- and combine them with high powered lightboxes with hidden mountings that are powerful enough to illuminate a room while maintaining the integrity of the photo. Really, what it comes down to is the most banging set of man cave accessories I’ve seen in a while. Check out a gallery of some of our favorite pieces after the jump.

“I’m not mad… I’m just disappointed.” No guy wants to hear these words, and rightly so; disappointment is actually more likely to kill a relationship than passionate anger. All women may be different, but there are certain things we’re all on the same page about. If she’s acting like you’ve dropped the ball, and you’re left scratching your head as to why, check our cheat sheet- we’ll help you fix it, and avoid future drama that can lead to the death of your relationship.

You have bad judgement

So maybe you thought shaving off a friend’s eyebrow when he passed out was a great idea- but now she’s raising hers at you, and you realize that the room temperature’s dropped to below zero. Whether or not your girl has the same sense of humor as you, there are a lot of decisions that you think are funny or cool that are going to have her thinking twice about you.
