    Mmm, Cajun Boy, your judicious use of the double neg? Beating the word "hard" like a red-headed stepchild?

    Lakefront.

    Congrats, brahs. You managed to turn the words "hard guy" into something wholly unsexy.

    I don't care if this is just a select group of misfits. I have one thing to say: I hate you Boston...so...so...much.

    "Alright, Scorpions, that was some bad-ass deconstructionist book-fucking tonight. Don't forget Jackhammer's UFC 101/Jewelry party is Saturday night, so bring your dick and your checkbook. Now let's hit the showers."

    I had signed up with these guys, but the first month we were supposed to read The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. I just couldn't get into it.

    Hopefully they'll discuss why being a DUDE has to involve doing the same ol' received shit: beer, guns, fights, embarrassed drunken blow jobs, etc.

    @Dickdogfood: Also, if they're fucking honest about the enterprise, they'll read John Rechy and Dennis Cooper.

    Let's all ignore the fact that Ernest Hemingway struggled with a sense of his own masculine inadequacy throughout his life. TOTALLY no irony there.

    I’d hang out with this guy: Sean Maher, a.k.a. SCORP#8: "The language and dialogue alone could spark interesting discussions. Beyond that, the book offers an interesting glimpse of mid-century America and its cultural and social mores. It also confirmed my long-held belief that bad things happen in Florida."
