“I let the ringers do the talking.” So says Alan Francis, one of the greatest horseshoe pitchers the world has ever known. This mustachioed marksman has won a record-setting 15 Men’s World Horseshoe titles since 1989. During one tournament, Alan Francis threw a record 64 consecutive ringers! Talk about a Burlington Shower! Talk about Alan Francis [...]

Nothing says “I’m a chill-ass stoner” like the lighter game. Smoke a doob or two, maybe throw on some jams and creatively balance a lighter on the back of your hand. It’s total freestyle. Improvise, go with the flow — be smooth. Explore your range. How do you play? First you have to mellow out. [...]

Greeting from The Land of The Rising Sun. That’s right, Fugaze is live here in Shanghai, China as a special judge at the International Lingerie Trade Show.

Decent Community stumbled across a chill little site called Dirty Upper Lip, whose tagline is “Celebrating ‘staches that are before their time.” The site features embarassing photos of youngbloods who grow sorry excuses for mustaches (aka guido staches) in an attempt to be stylish. Dirty Upper Lip is a fairly new site, so their catalogue of stringy ‘staches is [...]

Just in case you haven’t read this wonderful site (technically not a website, rather a Twitter feed), Decent Community would like to present to you Shit My Dad Says.

Tossing a salad is a very delicate matter. You can’t be too rough with the tossing or the “salad” will bruise. Tossing salad is a delightful experience for both the “diner” and the “chef.” Here are directions on how to properly toss salad(s): 1.) Before washing and storing greens, remove and discard discolored or [...]

Waazzaaa! Tubesteak is coming at you with fresh jams from his new Hotlanta studio. After checking some of the previous podcast jams, Tube sensed some complacency — which was hopefully avoided in volume eight of our podcast. Included is some serious rock as well as some mellow pieces — all of which lean to the more avant-garde side. Click here to listen to and [...]

Right around this time every year chicks start hounding their men to take them up to New Hampshire or Vermont in the name of trees, manipulated romance, and corny, clichéd photos featuring earth-toned sweaters like the ones above. “A leaf-peeping tour,” if you will, where you stay at a bed and breakfast, look at trees, buy some homemade [...]

The folks over at General Mills got it right when they decided to make Bugles. I tell ya, those guys are professionals over there (as evidenced by their making of this fine corn chip). Why can’t anybody else make a snack like this nowadays? The aesthetics, the taste, and the multi-functionality. They look like a rounded pyramid. Or [...]

With the return of The Office for the fall season, The Community felt it pertinent to honor one of our favorite characters, Andy “The Nard Dog” Bernard as our Decent Bastard of the Week. Played by the venerable Ed Helms, The Nard Dog is a walking hilarity. Always well-intentioned, a tad pompous, and possessing an arsenal [...]

BOSTON (AP) — People call Nick Green “The Doubles Machine,” but the Red Sox shortstop has gone much further than second base with Heidi Watney. The blonde sideline reporter was apparently the cause of a wild brawl between Green and Jason Varitek prior to Sunday’s game in Baltimore. Varitek rushed Green, who recently started dating [...]

Best known as Joseph “Joey” Gladstone (or Uncle Joey) on Full House, comic Dave Coulier is currently voicing the role of Bob McKenzie on the Canadian animated series Bob & Doug (same Bob and Doug of Strange Brew fame). A master of impersonation and voice distortion, Mr Coulier was decent enough to lend us his [...]

Decent Community members are f’ing popular, and with great popularity comes a great amount of missed phone calls. At times, we’ll receive up to 7 missed calls in one phone glance — and much of the time people don’t leave a message. Therein lies a puzzler: Is it common decency to call someone back if [...]

Undoubtedly Urban Outfitters give me a boner and the outfits they supply are straight up horn-inducing. Unlike Tube, however, I don’t have such a singular allegiance to one (albeit very high quality) establishment. I’ve scoured the net, gone through all my fall catalogs and have walked up and down the trendiest streets in the trendiest cities [...]
