I declare myself The Man.

Whafro posted a pic of his slamming fro and hot prom date.

Maybe in some strange, warped nerd world you are The Man. But trust me...Whafro is The Man by KO, unanimous decision.

Do not make me bust out the pics of the beard dreadlocks, fool.

...and, are you questioning a mod in public?

To futher my assertion of The Man-ness:

Yes, Virginia, that is a Cobra wall hanging/tapestry thingie. I've never seen another one (though they exist). It's actually promo material for a card based G.I. Joe game (ala Magic or whatever) I got from a friend who owns a game/comic shop. No clue if they're available to the general public or not. But, I do know it is evidence of my The Man-ness nonetheless.
Psh. If you were a proper nerd, you'd know that the name for such a creation is "wall-scroll."
 
Wilbyman raises an excellent point. You show a photo of a movie poster about a movie based on a goofy kid's toy. Whafro, on the other hand posts a photo of himself sporting a very manly 'fro and an actual female that was seen in public with him (and his 'fro).

Now...I don't know about your universe, but a manly 'fro and a female on your arm certainly would be more "manly" than a....poster...and wall hanger thingy...but then again, maybe I'm not quite the nerd/geek I've been accused of being...but you, Brendan, most certainly are a nerd, if you think that poster makes you manlier than that hot chick and killer 'fro...

Ok, based on the discussion in this thread, I am DEFINATELY "the man" hands down. Why?
1) I have a huge white-guy fro
2) I also took a female to prom, albeit it was 4 years ago
3) I have 5, yes FIVE, transformers posters in addition to much other TF paraphanalia
4) I can recite almost the entire movie by heart
:p:p:p:p:p:p:p:p

Official TalkBass Forum Rule Book:

Rule #1: No pics, no proof. Wild claims and assertions without photographic evidence are groundless and will be ridiculed by all forum members.

;)

(Whafro has you beat hands-down, with one pic he proves both his 'fro-ness, and his pimp-ness....)

Uh, I don't remember Weird Al being in Citizen Kane.

I have a stoner buddy who'll swear by it. No idea why, but he does. I try to tell him Weird Al wasn't even born then, and that hasn't stopped him yet.

I, however, was referring to the Transformers movie. Probably should have said "Him and Weird Al." Instead. Too late.
 
And people, we're losing sight here:

1) It worked for Joshua A. Norton, it'll work for me. I'm The Man. End of story, non-negotiable. I will use the Wookie defense if needs be.

2) Transformers.

(on the outside) 3) Cobra.

I'm gonna have to second this. Not only is Gard right but it looks like Whafro had a damned good time at his prom. ;)
