My single male friend hung this up in his house. I ripped him a new one and my other friends say it's fine. Your thoughts? Girly crap if you ask me

    "PLAY HARD" sounds a bit masculine.   Or like someone took a little blue pill.

    Haha that's hilarious.  Not something guys would normally put up. At least not me or my friends.  Unless they wanted to get clowned on. For eternity.

    When I first read this I thought it was perfect! but after thinking about it I realized it was not..... It says nothing about getting drunk, Egging, Yeti coolers, Rockwood or Royal Oak lump, The best fire starter, easy pizza dough or Death. So tell your friend to take it down.

    First of all @WeberWho , you are doing your duty as a guy friend to rip him a new one and to publicly call him out.  YOU have followed guy code.  Bonus points for you if asked him anything about his lady bits, or his missing man parts.

    Your friend, as a single guy, should have intuitively known that was inappropriate.  As a guy, he should not have been within a hundred yards of a store that has even considered selling signs like that.  A single guy should instinctivly stay away from all stores besides, Cabellas, Bass pro shop, or REI.

    You need to share this thread with your buddy,  so he can get the public shaming he needs to put him back on track.

    This one of those instances where one says "I'm asking for a buddy". Is this at your house? Be honest?

    That made me think of a "dream board" or whatever they are called.  Maybe he has one of those as well...

    Ridiculous...his wall, his sign in his home...nobody else's effing business. Try to tell me how to decorate my own house and the only other thing you will see there is the door.
    Perhaps his mother gave it to him and what is more manly than keeping mom happy?
    Perhaps a potential girlfriend gave it to him and he is trying to make her happy?
    Perhaps it makes him happy?
    Perhaps I really don't care either way.

    Nah. We've been friends since 8th grade. Most of my friends are like brothers. If we didn't bust each other's arse something wouldn't be right. All fun and games. If he truly would have been hurt I wouldn't have said anything. ;)

    Well, that is a horse of a different color, whatever that means. As long as it is all in fun you could bring over a bra and hang it on the sign next time you visit.

    Uhmmm, we're having a little fun. I pretty sure we will not organize an intervention or bum rush his house to remove the sign.
      If you have this same sign, please disregard our rude comments and carry on as you wish.

    Nah, but do have something my mom gave me that I don't really care for but she liked it. Man, I miss her. Guess I should lighten up and join in the fun.

    I don't think I would hang it up in my house, but my wife maybe.  Now I have this I am going to frame a some point and hang in my basement/man cave.
