Everclear played a show last night at the Mandalay Bay Beach. They're not my favorite band in the world by any means, but tickets were only $9, so I went with a friend of mine and a girl he recently met.
Earlier in the day when he told me she was coming, he told me to be on my best behavior.
Him: [Girl] is coming too, so don't be an asshole.
Me: Can I be a dickwad?
Him: I don't know that you know how not to be one.

Everclear. That's awesome. I didn't know that lead singer dude was still alive. Keep an eye out for the upcoming Third Eye Blind show. I'll come down for that.
it's good to have a reputation no matter what it's for......within reason of course......oh and mule variations? quality....
there is such a tiny margin between asshole and Dickwad, its really quite a nuance and you have some very perceptive friends to realize this. Also Douchebag is only a few degrees from dickwad but in kind of a fuzzy kind of way.
You can get away with acting like an asshole or a dickwad because you aren't one. The things that you say and/or do are mostly for humor value and/or shock value. If someone takes it in a way other than that, they aren't fit to be your friend or be in your company, anyway. Right?
Man, I think it sucks when someone with a new girl tries to modify your behaviour just because she is going to be where you are. I've had friends do that to me, and it just encourages me to be MORE of an asshole! Like the time at a party when the guy was acting so uptight and worried that I ended up making out with her instead (don't worry it wasn't his girlfriend or anything, just someone he liked...)
Well at least your friends can rely on you to be consistent. That's a good thing right?
Bill is onto something here. We need to quantify these terms: asshole, dickwad, douchebag, dickhole, etc.
My friend wasn't really trying to modify my behavior. He was actually making fun of someone else who told me that I was an asshole, and then later the same evening said everyone that worked in our lab are dickwads. I suppose a little clarification goes a long way.
And I like the idea of quantifying, but I don't think the line between douchebags and dickwads is a fine one at all. To me, those are completely separate things.
all riddlites are assholes?
Anonymous, this was stated to me by another Riddlite, so apparently not all, just some. Later, when he said we were all dickwads, I said, "I agree. Everyone in the lab is a dickwad. Except for me."
