Rants and Raves: Poking

Get your mind out of the gutter! Ha..no really we would’ve thought along those lines too.

OK, we do realize this is completely 7 years ago but it’s recent to us as of late anyways. WHY on earth are you Facebook poking me? Seriously.

When we typed in Facebook Poking on Google, one of our favorite sites popped up; Urban Dictionary. Here’s the first definition:

When bitches want to have sex, so they push the poke button on Facebook to say they are dtf.
Well, isn’t that super. So, my little Spanish friend from work and an ex hook-up are both sharing their interest in poking me? If that isn’t romantic, what is?
facebookpoke
Was Mark Zuckerberg trying to create the easiest way to initiate a booty-call without actually having to call or speak to that person at all? Fail. If you want a hook-up buddy you better develop that personality, Facebook can only take you so far.
Don’t be a D-bag and don’t poke, so 2006.

A Bro’s Sexuality

The other day we saw a random Bob smackin’ the ass of the guy in front of him at the store. They clearly knew each other.. well we hope they did.

That act immediately made us think of when we were in middle school. Those crazy awkward years filled with braces and baby fat. When we first saw guys hugging and yelling “Love you bro” across the hallway. Back then we thought it was a little strange, now..it’s like second nature. If we don’t hear most guys sharing their love affairs with their bros it’s almost assumed that they’re really not great friends.

This love that men in this century share is not an act of homosexuality, but rather of a strong bond and a secure sense of their own sexuality. Don’t get us wrong, there is a limit that can lead to an extreme case of a typical douche-bag, but that’s not where were going with this.

We just think it’s interesting how the term “macho” has changed. For starters, that word is not used much anymore, but when it was the first image that popped into your head was definitely an image of:

macho-man-randy-savage

BTW..R.I.P. Randy Savage

In this decade, that word has been dismissed and the meaning of strong and manly plus  the look of guys doesn’t even seem to matter. Which, in all reality is great. Now, we just get the Bros, with “bro love” and “bro touch” (Urban Dictionary that one for a laugh).

The point is, even though the “bro” culture may not be as manly or socially acceptable to the older generations, we Betties accept our Bros and our Bobs just the same.

Love you all,
