Thanks to honorary Broad of the day, Jean, we learn a couple new words: "Throw Shade" and "Gay Fat."
Listener and friend Peter (huhuh, I said peter) sent us a question on Facebook: Who do we hate, but would still bang? This was a trickier question than first thought, but we came up with a few winners (?). All of these guys exude douchiness but are still attractive. We'd only hate ourselves for having sex with them.
1) Throw Shade: to talk trash about a friend or aquaintance, to publicly denounce or disrespect. When throwing shade it's immediately obvious to on-lookers that the thrower, and not the throwee, is the bitcy, uncool one
"How does Kimmy keep any friends? Last night at the party all she did was throw shade at people."
2) Gay Fat:
A gay man who does not have a gym-perfect body, but rather carries a body fat percentage in the 12% - 20% range. A man who is considered gay fat within the community would likely be considered athletic, physically fit and in-shape within the greater cultural context.
Grant: Hey, can I use one of your guest passes for the gym? I'm in a bit of a dry spell with gigs, and couldn't afford to re-up myself.
Jerome: Sure, man, no problem.
Grant: Awesome, dude. I'm afraid if I don't start to get back to it regularly, I'm going to lose this year's 'Ass Fabulous' contest.
Jerome: Honestly, I don't know that a fourth straight win will make you any more fuckable, but it's easier to give you the pass than to host a full-blown gay fat intervention in a few weeks if you don't win.
