Which Girls You Should Avoid


From manly sage and famed whiskey drinker John Carney comes some sound holiday advice for the fellas. AVOID WOMEN...not all women, just certain types.

But how does a guy decide which woman to avoid?

I'm glad you asked. John has provided us with a very specific list on his blog "Rise If You Must" called his "Annual Guide To Holiday Romance".

Check it out and avoid winding up with the wrong woman this holiday season. My personal favorite is number 17. Avoid any girl with more tattoos than you. She’ll never respect you.

Super Manly Job


I defy you to find a more manly job than this one.

An alcoholic beverage company (Whyte and Mackay) has hired a team of hard-core drillers out of New Zealand to drill through the ice in Antarctica to retrieve bottles of 100-year-old scotch that are frozen deep below.

Dude, its a treasure hunt expedition for fucking whiskey! I can't even think of a way to add more manliness to that scenario...well, maybe if they drillers are entertained on their downtime by a team of classy strippers, but where would one find strippers in Antarctica? And, I can only assume that they will have to hunt polar bears with high powered rifles as their only means of sustenance...but i digress.

Whyte & Mackay, the drinks group that now owns McKinlay and Co., has asked for a sample of the 100-year-old scotch for a series of tests that could decide whether to relaunch the now-defunct Scotch.



Workers from New Zealand’s Antarctic Heritage Trust will use special drills to reach the crates, frozen in Antarctic ice under the Nimrod Expedition hut near Cape Royds. A burly dude named Al Fastier will lead the retrieval expedition in January.

Fastier said he did not want to sample the contents.

“It’s better to imagine it than to taste it,” he said. “That way it keeps its mystery.”

What a liar.
