Footnote: John Boehner did not cry in public because he is a vulnerable and sensitive guy, but because he is maudlin.

ime old men who tear up at things usually do so at things they have no idea how to relate to the emotions they're having and something leaks through their grizzled (or orange) exteriors

Ben Lerer has been running his company Thrillist for the past decade -- and he’s only 34. He and his college friend started it as a niche newsletter for men. It’s has since evolved into a lifestyle media company that informs guys about where to drink, eat and shop in 40 cities around the world.

What's the most important company we've never heard of?
Important is a weird word. My favorite? Have you heard of Casper, the mattress company? Maybe.

I feel like Thrillist is not doing a great job marketing masculinity because I'm sure I've looked at tons of things on that site and had no idea it was meant to be for "guys"

What about your job most excites you?
My coworkers. They rock. It's really fun to have a ton of super smart people all swimming in the same direction and focused on solving the same big problems.

That "dude diary" cover has a dinosaur and a bug on it and "open in a well-ventilated area" is a fart joke. it is definitely aimed at 11 and 12-year old boys.

surely the "Pipe Carving Kit" is intentionally funny?
Whether he’s talking to a hand-carved pipe or a small child, there’s no prouder words in a man’s vocabulary than, “I made you.” Sure, he could commission a custom pipe to his exact specifications--and after that, he could pay another man to change his oil and tell him who to vote for...

Thomas H5 days agofirst ad in a long period in my life that amused me so much I think I'm actually going to buy the stuff. only other ad that has gotten me to buy their product consciously is Old Spice.
― how's life, Tuesday, 27 September 2016 14:46 (seven years ago) link
I have heard tell a couple of the Old Spice products smell fine, and I have to admit their rebranding was less obnoxious than some other brands. I really did think "this smells like old men" and even "this smells like douchebag bros in their 20s" is probably a better smell than old man smell.
― dr. mercurio arboria (mh 😏), Tuesday, 27 September 2016 14:50 (seven years ago) link
Yeah, I used to use the old man Old Spice until a woman told me I smelled like her dead grandfather. I still use that brand but one of the sporty scents, not a Game of Thrones scent.
