I have heard through the internet grapevine (grape-tubes?) that young people have a new phrase to ward off the terrifying prospect of being mistakenly identified as homosexual. So the next time you’re drunk and telling your frat bro how much you love him, simply follow it up with “no homo” and he’ll know that it’s still just a hetero bromance between you. Worried about buying a guy friend a beer? Still want to give your tackle football buddies a friendly slap on the ass after an excellent turnover? “No homo” is here for you!
Now, to be honest, I hadn’t heard the phrase “no homo” before a couple of days ago. I was browsing Facebook when I saw someone wearing a t-shirt that said “ARMY: NO HOMO” in their profile picture. My interest was piqued instantly. The shirt was decidedly professional looking, and after a short round of searching I discovered that it was once a product offered by the often irreverent and sometimes offensive BustedTees. The “Army: No Homo” shirt is now notably no longer available, but the URL and photographic evidence remain.

Express is admittedly a bit expensive (I only buy from the discount bins), but they generally have good sales. Ditto for AE, one of the other few men’s stores that consistently stocks XS sizes. And when buying clothes online, always remember to check out sites like retailmenot, where you can always find discount codes!
Another exciting discovery was learning that Original Plumbing Magazine had released its first edition of …
