    What are some of the most annoying traits of That Guy?

    Here's some that bother me:

    That guy that has courtside tickets to the Rockets, then yucks on the cell phone all game.
    That guy who always pays for a beer with a $100 bill, just to show it off
    That guy who gets his legs waxed
    That guy on the dance floor, the one who sneaks up to girls from behind
    That guy who talks loud on his cell phone about his finances, "accidentally" showing off his salary.
    That guy who always cancels on friends at the last second.
    That guy at the restaurant who makes a big show about tasting the wine, swirling the glass and watching the "legs"
    (from girls perspective) That guy who gets a number and then never calls
    etc


    Does That Guy annoy you? What's he do?


    (full disclosure: I'm working on a project about "That Guy," so looking for a little inspiration...)

    The ultimate douche bag test is the guy that takes the model number of his BMW so that you can't tell which one he bought....very common on the 3 series, but for some reason I've even seen douche bags who think the entry level 5 series is too humiliating vs a 545, so they pull the #s off

    That guy that always talks about things you don't care about(video games), but you act interested because his sister is hot.
    That guy that drives a van.
    That guy that has a very skinny body but a beer belly like they swallowed a basketball.
    That guy that always has a camera no matter where he is, just in case of a UFO.
    That guy that still collects Pogs.
    That guy that gives his animals human names like "Jeff, Steve, Calbert, Hugo"
    That guy that's house smells like cabbage.
    That guy that's parents died 20 years ago but he still doesn't change their room.
    That guy that farts around people and calls it out like he's proud.
    That guy that makes up stories to impress girls, right in front of you. "I lived next to Kimbo Slice, he knows me by name."
    That guy that never works out but can bench press 300 lbs.
    That guy that wears sleeveless shirts all the time.
    That guy that wears socks with sandals on.
    That guy that talks very loud on the phone when you're at a Chinese Buffet.
    That guy that stepped on your sand castle in 1st grade.
    That guy that believes everything is a conspiracy(obsesses over Zeitgeist)
    That guy that never ages.
    That guy that plays guitar hero and thinks he's cool.
    That guy that greatly exaggerates everything (I got this one job at Best Buy, only 10 out of 400 people got it)
    That guy that never wears anything different (Doug?)
    That guy that always says f*****.
    That guy that boasts about not knowing much about computers.

    That guy who walks around without a shirt on in public

    That guy who totally changes the way he acts, and things he supposedly likes if an attractive female is around(unless it's done to such an extreme that it's funny and then I love it.)

    That guy who follows whatever the latest trend is because its cool, and not because it's something he really likes doing, and likes to make sure everyone knows that he's into the trendy thing.

    If you let another mans ways 'bother' you, then you must be a very weak person. So what if someone else does these things. Add to your project that as one gets older.........he doesnt care.

    Man, Im getting old because I don't understand this. :confused:

    Missed it, but I'll check it out, thanks. (this is not for an article, so i'm not worried about overlap)


    Sleeveless shirts, nice. Sorry about your sand castle, dntrwl. It can be tough to let go.

    Good ones FranchiseBlade.

    Here, I found the article on their website in the form of a poll. I remembered it because it also talks about the wine thing that you wrote in your original post. Here is the address:

    A great one is the guy who wears a bluetooth headset around in public while not talking on the phone.

    That Guy that calls 4-cylinder cars V4s. They're I4s damnit!
    That Guy that thinks he's playing tough defense but is actually fouling that crap out of you.
    That Guy who doesn't turn into his own lane and then almost hits you.

    I like this one, I take umbrage with folk who are too quick to diss people using bluetooth headsets, it's like the in-thing to do(dissing people using Btooth headsets). Now if someone is just wearing it around and not actually talking to anyone/using the headset then they are fair game to be dissed and they are douches.

    That Guy that's too lazy to use his turn signal when cutting into your lane right in front of you but then uses his turn signal to make a left turn when obviously in a designated left turn only lane.

    I agree. A bluetooth within itself isn't necessarily bad. It is just that bluetooth wearers usually carry other douchy characteristics: talking too loud and trying to seem important, or consistently wearing it around while not receiving calls.

    Though, when bluetooths first started becoming popular, I would get freaked out by someone on campus using one at least once a week on my way to early morning class. They would be silent (listening to their call), then all of a sudden when you got close they would start talking and I'd always think they were saying something to me or talking to themselves.
