What do people do to make themselves look cool that actually makes them look like a D-bag?

0:06.2

Those people who are weirdly proud of not reading a book since high school.

0:11.4

Constantly telling people about the women they've done the deed with or were otherwise involved with.

0:16.0

I knew a guy like this in college. He was one of the most obnoxious guys I've ever known.

0:20.7

The student in high school

0:21.5

tried to convince me that he had lain with my 21-year-old Christian married sister. I had to sit

0:26.7

1:12.2

bombarding them with words until they're satisfied. It's a useful trick, I suppose, but when you

1:16.8

hear him do it in real time, you realize he's just a very good liar. Being a butthole to other

1:22.9

people to boost your own ego. Creepy flirting at the gym.

1:28.3

Picking on someone in a group and trying to get everyone else to laugh at them.

1:32.3
