In the UK an anorak is not a fleece. It is made of some very thin and crinkly waterproof material. Always has a hood.
My guy really hates when I refer to his drawers as “man panties”.
SolGrundy quit nibblin’ on my hoodie!
Hey, you handyman types, take note: Real men say that they put up some curtains. They did NOT fashion a window treatment.
Thank you.
I think we can safely add the word “lollygag” to this list, assuming it hasn’t already been added at the creation of the list.
Not an actual word, so I don’t know if I can do this justice, but there’s a way that ladies say “awwww” when they see something really cute–it’s more sung than said, and it’s got three pitches. It starts at about middle register, dips down a bit, then swoops up to a higher note than it started…
Guys can’t make that sound. Not convincingly.
No way! As the late Trey Wilson said it in Bull Durham, it was one hell of a manly word. Robert Wuhl parroting it, however …
Hmm, maybe this is a wierd, local Canadian thing, but I know lots of guys who call it a ‘hoodie’. And as far as I knew, an ‘anorak’ was a large, hooded parka thing that Inuit wear. I’ve never heard it used anywhere else than this. And underwear is underwear, though one kind might be called 'boxers’or occasionally ‘shorts’.
Would “manties” sound better?
As for the “hoodie” commercial. The first time I saw that I said to myself, “Would a guy really say “hoodie”?”
“Hoodie” is bad enough, but I understand that out in Alberta or Saskatchewan or someplace they call 'em “bunnyhugs.”
That’s what I thought too.
And ‘hoodie’ is better than ‘bunnyhug’
Real men cannot even pronounce Kwich; Or Queesh; Or whatever it’s called. You know, that custard pie-like thingie served in restaurants with a lot of ferns.
Pullin
I like custard pie, but ferns taste like shit.
Never thought of it as unmanly before. As someone else pointed out, a hoodie here is a Hooded Sweatshirt, rather than an anorak - ie, “check out the drone in the Korn Hoodie and make up, I could kill him without breaking a sweat”.
So I will keep using it, no matter what you think. And as far as being manly goes, I eat rocks, shit gunpowder and fight Giant Squid for fun.
Um, what? Quiche doesn’t have custard in it; it’s eggs. It’s for dinner, not dessert.
(I read a humorous anecdote once about a woman who presented her love thing with some “scrambled egg pie,” which he enjoyed a great deal. Only after dinner did she inform him he had just eaten quiche, and liked it.)
I just think “hoodie” is dumb, no matter who says it. Along with really short shorts with phrases like, “hot stuff” across the ass. Ugh.
You are not a real man if you’ve ever properly referred to. whatever it is, as “appliquè”.
Oh dear. I like and use “hoodie.”
Well you’re clearly not a very manly man then, are ya goddess.
