wow...you said it perfectly "douche bag in natural habitat" a f---ing GYM. I would have to call him out if I saw him walking on the street next to me.

urlacher would fit right in with those guys.

I really hope those guys aren't from Chicago...maybe they're heading back home to Douchebagistan.

But is his friend wearing a 9/11 shirt?

"We will never forget"

I don't get it. What's not gonna suck itself?

Doesn't anybody else think the guy on the left is *flaming*? I only say that because it sure looks like the kind of outfit you might see on somebody wanting to make an outrageous & shocking statement at the Gay Pride Parade.

That's funny, I also guessed that the person on the left was gay. But then as I looked closer I immediately knew no gay man would wear such a ridiculous outfit.

I have to admit a quick glance at this picture made me think this post would be about boystown or something.

"his 'it ain't gonna suck itself' tank top! his tan! his muscles! his beer! his tank top again!"


Thanks for the laughs, just what I needed for this cold Wednesday

It appears they're holding hands. The photo's cropped, but if you saw the rest, I'd bet they were hand in hand. And I don't think any straight man would be that into having his hair that well done-up or being that in-shape.

I also assumed these guys were gay, and the shirt was some kind of personal manifesto/guiding philosophy. :)

I don't think they are gay. When I first looked at them, they seemed to be teeming over with misguided testosterone. He looks like one of those jerks who thinks he will get any girl at the bar or club he frequents.

totally gay...no straight man wears a shirt so outrageous

How much you wanna bet they are at Midway waiting in the "A" line for the 6:30 Southwest flight to Vegas?

I don't know where this picture was taken - Midway? But these guys were on my flight back to Chicago from Las Vegas this weekend. I remember because my two friends and I were laughing at the one guy's shirt, as well as his obnoxiousness on the plane. You can't tell from this picture but the white t-shirt the other guy was wearing is some kind of CFD shirt.

Damn, it's like one of those optical illusion images; gay when you look at it one way, straight when you look at it another. Kind of illustrates the sociocultural nexus between ChaddieFratty Straight Douchebaggery and BuffGayGymRat Narcissism (there's a PostModern Studies thesis in there somewhere).

They totally look gay to me. If this was next week, I'd almost bet money they were in Chicago for International Mr. Leather, cuz the guys who come to town then look just like that, and wear shirts just like that - at least with some sense of irony.

Cletus,

You have written the most brilliant, on-the-mark comment ever on this website.

Cletus has been on fire of late. He's like the Most Valuable Commentor of the week or something...

Jeepers, y'all are givin' me a serious case of self esteem. Thanks much.

You've also inspired me to begin work in earnest on my dissertation; "Hair Gel and Endomorphism as Masculine Sexual Signifier In Gay and Heterosexual Gym Subcultures: A Cross-Cultural Ethnography of the Semiotic Underpinnings of Buffness."

Look for it at a Cultural Studies Department near you!

Both of them have extreme "gay face". Wouldn't be too hard to imagine them going down on each other.

Cletus,

I would love to have you as a prof. That was my laugh for the day. There should be a Mad Libs type of game for the many postmodern studies one could do. The possibilities are endless! Or a picture game that would prompt academic dissertations!

I still say that guy is not gay!!!!!!
