Today’s Least-Promising Headline

By Mitch Berg

From the Strib:

Club-hopping guys greasing up with Preparation H

No, it’s not what you think.

Well, not quite:

ABC News is reporting that New York bouncer, blogger and author Rob Fitzgerald has noticed that young men waiting outside his clubs are greasing up with the hemorrhoid cream to make themselves look “ripped” for the ladies.

Fitzgerald says bodybuilders and posers use it, and now the tactic is making the rounds on the Internet, ABC reports. And women have been known to use it to combat facial wrinkles

I thought about calling the post “smear tactics”, but thought better of it.

    A Berg comment below reads something to the effect that comment thread direction is fairly predictable. Ain’t that the truth.

    “A Berg comment below reads something to the effect that comment thread direction is fairly predictable.”

    Aren’t conservatives supposed to value traditions and relatively resistant to change? Of course, by that stereotype, AC and Flash are even more conservative than many of the “conservative” commenters here.

    In the AssClown abode, it’s called “salad dressing”.

    Being a clown I suspect he’s more partial to grape jelly.

    Grape? Why grape?
