This Guy Is Basically The Best Guy

As someone who spends most of every day struggling with self-doubt, social anxiety, crushing guilt, and feelings of inadequacy, I cannot tell you how jealous I am of this man's ability to just fucking live his life. He's our generation's Owen Wilson (pre-suicide attempt). Chillax, man. Life is 2 short. Let's paint, exercise, and be more like this guy. We can do it all. Let's go!! (Via BuzzFeed.)

You mean: let's shower, shave, smoke, sing, and be Eastern European! There are no limits!

Gabe, this guy has obviously taken your message to heart:

Hate to break it to you. This is a buzz marketing campaign for Gillette's new Salvia Smooth Shaving Gel.

are you sure it isn't the "stevia smooth shaving gel?" because i could totally see this being based on dan quinn.

Does anyone else think this could be some sort of really interesting social experiment? Hear me out on this - we all hated the guy. Then he stuck around long enough to become a videogum staple, made us all love him, and will now have us all friend him on facebook? I mean, I'm still friending him, but this is too good for someone not to be writing a thesis or something on it.

He looks like the child of Tom Arnold and Keifer Sutherland.

I think this is a NOM ad

The trend in the post industrial age is for people to work more than the norm, which heretofore was about a 40 hour work week, which means that many of us lack much of a social life. A healthy social life is good, as it turns out. It's important for a person to get out there and do a little credit repair with the human race. Freelance workers who work at home should take notice. It's also great for networking. Go out and do something – go out for coffee, have lunch in the park, go bowling. A payday loan towards having a better social life is debt relief for your own mental health.
