Title: I'm a Douche Bag
Post by: Allen on June 25, 2008, 15:06: Now that I have your attention I can let you know that I am in fact a "douche bag". Well at least that's what someone thinks. ;D

I was searching google for my pics and I finally found one and was credited for it.

Here is the link and have a laugh at my expense.

I do have to admit that it's not my best picture by any stretch of the imagination and thankfully it is me instead of my daughter or someone else.

Let me know what you think, am I a douche bag for having sparkles? ;)

Your picture could have been used for an article on STD's, (Sexually transmitted deases) and the caption under your picture would say something like, this guy just might give his date more then just roses tonight. LOL :D

Yes. ;D However the article is encouraging you to be a douche bag so it's ok. ;)

Post by: lisafx on June 28, 2008, 19:03: LOL! How nice of them to credit you ;)

Don't feel too bad. It could be a backhanded compliment. Just think about where douch bags spend the majority of their time....
