Dangly bits need support! Ask any titty-bearing human.

gotta be honest boxer briefs ain't done it for me, that's why i'd consider spending hard € on jeans these days.

aaaaannnd right back on track- masculinity is when your balls wear through DENIM RAWR

These are serious issues for the vintage clothing savant in your life. Also scrotal rub v. jeans FITE explains the absence of large stockpiles of big E Levi's.

big P Levi's tbh RAWR

...and what is truly awful is that camel-toeing has been known to have the same outcome in women, although there may be less locker-room pride involved than HAY GUYS, MY POWERBALLS DEFEATED WRANGLER.

"scrotal rub" itself is a marketing phrase for what is otherwise known as "chub rub". but whatever makes you feel better, thunderthighs.

a woman's pride come from sewing back together the jeans that were worn out by their man's balls.

I sb'ed your mum (ken c), Thursday, 10 December 2009 14:03 (fourteen years ago) link

so they they can wear them out again RAWR

Even though I've never been a victim of it, I am amazed that I've never heard the term 'chub rub' before.

special vixens unit (suzy), Thursday, 10 December 2009 14:06 (fourteen years ago) link

i had a big chub rub problem in like 8th grade

talcum powder yall

I've never heard it either, and anyway doesn't "chub" mean something at least slightly other than dangle?

Cronenberg sleazy (kenan), Thursday, 10 December 2009 14:08 (fourteen years ago) link

Depends on the angle of the dangle

Sonny Uplands (Tom D.), Thursday, 10 December 2009 14:10 (fourteen years ago) link

Angle of dangle weighed against Heat of meat. Apparently the University of Colorado did a study.

Steer clear of this Jason guy, is my advice.

Cronenberg sleazy (kenan), Thursday, 10 December 2009 14:15 (fourteen years ago) link

the angle of the dangle = the heat of the meat x the mass of the ass

Speaking of dangle angle:

Ass. The Other Variable.

(New marketing slogan.)

Cronenberg sleazy (kenan), Thursday, 10 December 2009 14:17 (fourteen years ago) link

otoh the rub of the chub is directly proportionate to the weight of the gait

elmo leonard (elmo argonaut), Thursday, 10 December 2009 14:39 (fourteen years ago) link

I've never looked at the contents of that dangerous book for boys but from 2nd-hand impressions it seems like a juvenile version of the "X things every man must know" lists published in books or men's magazines. and then there's the subset of "X things every dad should know" lists.

elmo leonard (elmo argonaut), Thursday, 10 December 2009 14:44 (fourteen years ago) link

xp author's name too close to 'gay marriage', fail.

Louis Cll (darraghmac), Thursday, 10 December 2009 14:56 (fourteen years ago) link

1) dont touch yrself in public

it's like 10,000 goons when all you need is a trife (m bison), Thursday, 10 December 2009 14:56 (fourteen years ago) link

Oh, poo.

Cronenberg sleazy (kenan), Thursday, 10 December 2009 14:57 (fourteen years ago) link

There is a generational need for some of these books TBH, just thinking of all the guys I know that didn't have activity-based quality time with their divorced dads but do have all this collective false nostalgia to pour into their own young families.

I am encouraged by the prominent presence of an ironing board on the cover.

Cronenberg sleazy (kenan), Thursday, 10 December 2009 14:58 (fourteen years ago) link

It's not long enough to adequately iron the trousers.

HUH? not appropriate (snoball), Thursday, 10 December 2009 14:59 (fourteen years ago) link

Eh... it's one of those that hang from the top of the door. You make do.

Cronenberg sleazy (kenan), Thursday, 10 December 2009 15:00 (fourteen years ago) link

More important to have an iron than an ironing board.

Cronenberg sleazy (kenan), Thursday, 10 December 2009 15:01 (fourteen years ago) link

I thought that was some kind of fucked-up snowboard. : (

YOU NEED THIS BOOK

Cronenberg sleazy (kenan), Thursday, 10 December 2009 15:07 (fourteen years ago) link

You need "Snowboarding for Dummies"

HUH? not appropriate (snoball), Thursday, 10 December 2009 15:07 (fourteen years ago) link

I am confused by the triangle with the exclamation mark inside it. And the two magnifying glasses on either side of that. Did the cover artist run out of things he could draw, or did the author run out of things that men need to know?

Cronenberg sleazy (kenan), Thursday, 10 December 2009 15:09 (fourteen years ago) link

afaik "how to change a tire" is on every single one of these lists, forever

elmo leonard (elmo argonaut), Thursday, 10 December 2009 15:10 (fourteen years ago) link

Triangle represents fixing a car, "magnifying glass" looks more like a frying pan representing cooking skills, item top right is a baseball maybe?

HUH? not appropriate (snoball), Thursday, 10 December 2009 15:11 (fourteen years ago) link

xp and "how to suck a cock" is nowhere to be found. Hmmmm.

Cronenberg sleazy (kenan), Thursday, 10 December 2009 15:12 (fourteen years ago) link

That'll be in the cookery section.

Mark G, Thursday, 10 December 2009 15:14 (fourteen years ago) link

lol kenan

elmo leonard (elmo argonaut), Thursday, 10 December 2009 15:16 (fourteen years ago) link

item top right is a baseball maybe?

Thought it was a burger

Sonny Uplands (Tom D.), Thursday, 10 December 2009 15:20 (fourteen years ago) link

Can't be a baseball since it lacks seams. Golf ball, maybe, but no pocks.

Nuyorican oatmeal (jaymc), Thursday, 10 December 2009 15:24 (fourteen years ago) link

The guy's British, so it can't be a baseball

Sonny Uplands (Tom D.), Thursday, 10 December 2009 15:26 (fourteen years ago) link

Some kind of wickety stickety crickety bullshit?

Cronenberg sleazy (kenan), Thursday, 10 December 2009 15:30 (fourteen years ago) link

A lot of people don't know how to change a tire.
