The mark of the douchebag

Also, I AM that guy that knows everyone at the gym, and at least two people say that qualifies me for douchebag status.

Uh, if it looks like a tuq, sounds like a tuq.....

This thread has taken a turn for the weird. Some of them, like RoundGay's Rodeo Cheeseburger one doesn't make someone a douchebag, it just makes them really stupid.

Dude, he was making a scene and holding up the line, delaying my shot at the Ultimate Double Whopper! Douchebag extraordinaire!

So when is it ok to wear a dated shirt? If I've got a WSOP 2005 shirt, can I wear that at 07? How about an 04 shirt? A 1979?

You can wear it at any time - just don't wear it back to the WSOP.

As far as indicators go, I've been in Italy so long that I have to go with what I have over here. My number 1 douchebag indicator is anyone who has a Ferrari tag on their non-Ferrari car.

Douchebag.

Is this similar to someone here putting a Mercedes hood ornament on their Chevy Cavalier? Or are you talking about stickers of some sort?

Strong indicators of someone being a d-bag:

1. A guy wearing super-super ridiculously tight t-shirts (even if he's ripped)

2. Sunglasses on top of the head (someone already mentioned this but I think this is the #1 dead giveaway of douchebaggery)

3. Guys wearing sleaveless shirts to the cardroom.

4. A man with a nipple piercing.

5. Anyone who brags about how much money they have.

6. Guys who talk down to people in the service industry for no reason.

7. Some hardass walking down the street like he's carrying two suitcases.

8. Anyone that has a sticker on their vehicle of "Calvin" pissing on anything.

9. Any internet toughguy is guaranteed to be a real life douche.

10. Tablecoaches

You mean like the classes at the gym? I just took one this morning, 40 people at 5:30AM and about ten more got turned away. A lot of them are good friends of mine, because as discussed upthread I'm the Guy That Everyone Knows. Anyway, they're pretty cool people, it seems odd to lump an entire group of a specific gym class together like that, particularly since all we want to do is sweat in a social setting.

ads, pretty low blow IMO.

IMO most of these suggestions are really bad. Seems more like lists of things for groups of people they don't like or relate to. Personally I see a lot more 'frat' clean cut douches out there than dirty hippy / rocker / lazy douches, which a lot of examples seem to point at. D-baggery from afar can really be distinguished by a few things and the more things they have the better chance of being a d-bag:

1) Bluetooth while not in the car
2) Highlights
3) Tanning
4) Man Capris (and they don't look gay, ie w/ gf)
5) Obvious $100 flip flops
6) Popped Coller
7) Groups of guys w/ one or more of these traits
8) Jewlery (I'm talking gold & silver as opposed to something like hemp or the like)
9) Muscles (not always, but in combo w/ the above it's a pretty good indication)
10) Cliche tatoos (also a good one in combo w/ something else)
11) White collars on nice colored shirts
12) Obvious hair product (gel/mousse)
13) White guy w/ loud rap from a $20,000+ car/SUV

There are lots of others I'm missing, but my point is that picking out a d-bag from afar is never 100% accurate, but if they have a lot of the above there is a much higher chance of said person being a d-bag.

Tub - guys taking spinning classes aren't douches. They are something else, but not douches.

I'm pretty sure that we're talking about:

Haha, owned. Never mind I suck. It's just that I've heard that people have it in for people who take spinning classes, which seems weird to me.

Also, Budget Boy and AceLuby's lists were awesome.
