So I’m checking out the latest features from style.com via RSS when an interesting one comes through proclaiming: You’re a douchebag. Sounds interesting, a lil low-end chuckle. Until they describe me essentially to the letter: <\/p>\n

I\u2019m waiting for a friend at a wine bar and I see that the guy a couple of stools down from me keeps ostentatiously checking the late-model smartphone that lies before him on the granite countertop. He has the all-black Samsung BlackJack, which happens to be the coolest-looking smartphone there is\u2014at least until the iPhone comes out\u2014and he\u2019s wearing jeans that look like they cost $400, and his haircut was probably half that. I also notice that he\u2019s got an expensive- looking European leather briefcase at his feet that he no doubt calls an attach\u00e9.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Seems like a strange topic for what could ostensibly be called a gay pub. This piece includes such greats as:<\/p>\n

Dessert arrives\u2014a wedge of German-chocolate cake\u2014and when that\u2019s gone, Rivera lifts his fleshy stomach and proudly flops several inches of it onto the table. On his way home from the diner, he plans to stop at McDonald\u2019s for two double cheeseburgers and an order of 10 Chicken McNuggets.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I’d call this one a two-fer.<\/p>\n
