Try European makers. They still cut the stuff tight, so it looks good under a suit. Avoid American stuff, particualrly Ralph Lauren and Brooks Brothers.

As if. Everyone knows that Sebastian does not drink single malt. Please.

Moron?

Moron.
I had forgotten that you act like you are totally disagreeing with someone when you are doing nothing of the kind. Jackass.

I have adopted this move, too. Frankly, though, I'm just not very big or very strong, and people tend to be pretty nice about pushing the doors along for/with me, if only because they'd otherwise be stuck standing there while I struggled with it.



Oh, and a DD/JS/Daily Show transcript, I found it:

Nubile nibblers always seem to help.

Frankly, I will take the fatties off my payroll and feel superior to the uglies, the dummies and the proles.

Uh...no. If I am with the lady, this makes sense. Otherwise, I will hold it for whoever is right behind me, until they catch it.

Most places that have revolving doors have heavy traffic, so this rule is automatically stupid. And if you're not going to push the revolving door, stop asking for equal treatment everywhere else.

This is fine. Although, I like to sit at the booth section of the table that is up against the wall when the other choice is a chair, I will let it go.

Guess what? I'm going to get laid anyway. If I was with a girl who made her decision on whether or not she was giving me any, not based on our chemistry, conversation and compatibility, but on me getting up when she had to go to the bathroom, I probably wouldn't be dating her in the first place (because she'd be a high maintenance, pain in the ass).

Originally posted by Bad_Rich_Chic
Men, dropping a lady at her home, not only get out, walk around the car, open the door for her and accompany her all the way to her door, they accept the door key from the lady after she has fished it out of her bag and unlock and open it for her before handing the key back (never, of course, presuming to suggest entry).
You really do enjoy the occasional crack rock, don't you? She can open her own door. If I'm not coming in and she is not in imminent danger, I will wait for her to get in safely before I drive away. But everything you just wrote is absolutely unnecessary.

Whatever.
