itt blogs instruct you how to be a man

Ha
Here’s a new cliché that may hit a little close to home: Chick-fil-A can thrive even after discriminating, but your meat isn’t that tasty.

I read this sentence with the British sense of "fanny" in mind If Cory was whining about Topanga’s ever-expanding fanny, then Lauren would avoid him due to his chauvinistic nit-picking. which created an interesting visual.

i've noticed these types of subscription based services before -- stuff like dollar shave club or sites that automatically sends you underwear every other month or whatever. so, that makes some sense. razors and underwear need to be purchased regularly. ok. good. but also there's the "we send you a pocket square every other month" nonsense from put this on that i think i posted about itt. which, in my opinion, is a totally a bogus retail scam on hapless nerds disguised as a posh exclusive club membership. but this... this is so much worse.

so wait

you sign up on their website for manly gifts and then they send you a purse with champagne flutes?

I think maybe someone should kill them?

this looks like it's just some site some dude put up

like I doubt it will go anywhere

#BoxOfAwesome

that is what you get when you let reddit do your market research

man somebody should come up w/ this for redditors I bet you could take a lot of their money and just give them mario stickers or something

they are only hiring interns

that's basically the only thing they have in common with real companies

my girlfriend loves getting a birch box every month and i'm kinda jealous.. but this looks a bit more expensive and there doesn't really look like anything i'd want

i would maybe do this for comic books

i just... i don't get it

i mean, i get the business model, i just can't identify with this. i know i am not their target customer but the whole concept just fucks with my head. readymade lifestyle packages. like an impersonal birthday gift that you pay for.

I'm still back on the one with the purse, why would I want that?

not trying to get pedantic here but if a bunch of people sign up to get the exact same stuff? that is pretty much the opposite of what "bespoke" means

YOU get a fedora and YOU get a fedora and EVERYBODY GETS A FEDORAAAAAAAA

you sign up on their website for manly gifts and then they send you a purse with champagne flutes?

A purse with champagne flutes and homeopathic medicine bottles.

YOU get a fedora and YOU get a fedora and EVERYBODY GETS A FEDORAAAAAAAA

omg holy lols

afaict DJP the champagne flutes symbolize an American Airlines Executive Lounge Pass which is included in the box? and the bottles are skincare product

I'm still back on the one with the purse, why would I want that?

That's a canvas tool bag, and I witnessed a groom give manlier versions of this to his groomsmen, along with meat brands with their initials.

I think the canvas tool bag as man tote is kind of a thing right now

"box of awesome" vs "donkey sauce"

MEAT BRANDS ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME??????

i.e.

i.e. a purse

elmo how much is a sub to this svc?

AP i'll have you know that according to the copy it is a "canvas mason's bag" which was "originally built for quarry workers and miners" because your weekend luggage needs to have a little hair on its chest too

also I noticed the American Airlines logo on the flutes but was trying to avoid addressing it because FUCK AMERICAN AIRLINES

idk steve and i don't want to find out because it would only make me more upset

googling "meat brands" is disappointing

http://meatbrands.org/

Confession: younger AP would have loved getting drunk and branding his steaks.

ahaha that is great, meat brands dot org

coming soon

See, it's a canvas mason's bag, so you're not like all those sheeple out there with yesterda's canvas tool bag.

why is it meatbrands.org, is this a not for profit

meatbrands.edu

I mean, why

meatbrands.xxx

okay this is cracking me up

$45/ea btw

Editor's notes: This tool becomes very hot. Please be careful and keep the hot tool away from children.

Your guests will get a kick out of this! Brand their names, a monogram, "Go Vikings" or anything else you can imagine right into the meat. You'll get a complete alphabet and spaces to spell just about anything.

You'll have a ball with this branding iron. And it's built sturdy to last a long time.

It's not REALLY meant for barbeque, they just couldn't go right out and state their real purpose.

"Don't let yer slaves out the gate without branding 'em first, y'hear?"

The steak pictured on the front page is branded "I LUV DRILLIN"

underwear need to be purchased regularly
