    The Men Pen. On the one hand, as someone who's prone to the occasional blemish on the face, this is an interesting premise.

    On the other hand, it's makeup. For guys.:garamet:

    You can call it a "pen". You can put "men" right in the title. But it's still makeup.

    It's gay. Therefore, for you, I recommend it.

    No. No makeup. No.

    If you have to be "pretty" to get women, you've already lost.

    The mere fact that you're considering this speaks volumes Fox...

    Oh, I'm not considering it. But I heard an ad on the radio the other day and had to share it with you. I knew you'd all get a kick out of it--doubly so if it came from me. ;)

    If this was serious, I'd have put it in the Gold Room.



    Or Camp Wordforge. :calli:

    Sweet Zombie Jesus, advertisers are getting lazy. Or just very confused about their audience. Did they have women working on that or something??

    THAT, my dears, is not meant to appeal to men. It's meant for women to push onto men. Possibly genius, if it works, but most likely not...

    This is sad, IMO. They should just make a pen to make your wallet look fatter to women. :cool:

    Yes, Volpone, I'm sure your boyfriend will appreciate it. :jayzus:

    Not this man. A little (OK, a lot) talcum-based deodorant, and I'm done foofing myself up.

    If you don't get off of that, I'm gonna find the cheapest, nastiest bug spray & gasoline cologne I can find, and marinate in that shit before coming to bed.

    The *occasional* blemish? Honey, wash your face with something that has salicyclic acid in it and stop whining.

    Bah. WF needs a "gay" whipping boy from time to time. Tex had his "pink straw" period, Anc had the "teabagging/circle-jerk" incident. And don't get me going on enlistedperson. So if I'm stuck being the Imaginary Homo for awhile...I might as well have fun with it. :shrug:

    True enough. Of course the real fun comes when the Photoshop experts start having fun with it.

    No. Just no.

    If a real man has a blemish, he'll pick at it until it becomes a scab, then pick it again till it becomes a scar. He will end up looking like mirror universe Sulu.

    Nothing says 'manly' like a knife scar across the face. :borg:
