I won't apologize


I love him. I do. His soulful eyes, his pillowy lips, his horrendous tattoos, his douchey interviews.....I know you hate him, but I can't help myself. And I'll go to my grave declaring his playing on "Continuum" is Clapton-esque.

ADDED: Keith mentioned the Mayercraft Carrier Cruise in the comments, which compels me to add this picture, which I saw over at Towleroad. It speaks (volumes) for itself.It does bear noting that some of the lovely commenters at Towleroad deemed Mayer "fat" with "miniature nipples." Oh, you queers.

ADDED: OK, when I started this post I had no idea it would come to this, but apparently Mayer did not content himself with just going shirtless on the cruise. Please to enjoy:Things just get curiouser and curiouser.

When I think douchebag, I think John Mayer. (But not this picture.)

Easily the most boring concert I've ever witnessed.

I'm glad that even though you won't apologize, you seem aware that you should.

This post was prompted by his interview in BEST LIFE magazine, which I picked up because his mug is so pretty on the cover. He's astoundingly self-involved and even a little creepy. I don't know.

Have you been reading Best Week Ever? I guess he hosted some kind of weekend cruise Mayercraft Carrier - the whole thing sounded both disturbing and hilarious and I wish I could have gone just for the people watching.

Michael said...

I haven't been reading that, Keith. Will now.

Sigh.

Michael said...

May I assume that was not indicating contentment?

jason said...

Oh, I don't know...he's funny....always cute.

(though where J Love and Jessica Simpson have gone, I'm not sure I'd ever want to go)

I'm such a cretin that I had to make an effort to remember who he was. Personally, I say lust for who you lust for without apology. Few are those who can put forth a fave without someone else doing a whole "Eeuuuwwww Ick, it's a squished spider!" dance on their heads.

Are there now new nipple size requirements for cuteness? And I wish so much I was as fat as he is. Really. I'm thinking there is some 'projecting' going on.

I like John Mayer, though I do wish he'd annunciate a little better when he sings. He's a musical genius but he could do with some elocution lessons.

I was really impressed by an interview I saw with him on some TV show years ago when he was just getting big. (have fun with that innuendo if you like.) what impressed me was that whenever he was asked a difficult personal question, he answered by playing. music is actually a more natural and expressive medium for him than speech. incredible.

I'm with Frontier Psych.

'Gravity' is a great song, but I guess even a total douchebag is right twice a day? No?

Wouldn't it be tragic for him NOT to die young?

Just a thought. :-*

Michael said...

CB, apparently he was obsessed with the guitar during his awkward, acne-riddled youth.

Samuel, I think most of Continuum is awesome. I'm not fond of his other stuff. He really can play the fuck out of a guitar, and I think his voice is kinda creamy.

I don't really have an opinion on douchebag or non-douchebaggery because frankly he's a bit under my radar, but I do think he's pretty cute.

However, I need to never, ever see that nutsling bathing suit again. On anybody. Fuck you Sacha Baron-Cohen.

Murphy Jacobs said...

EEK!

Even the cutest damn hot body looks STUPID in those banana sling neon suits.

EEK!

freakgirl said...

Borat is so 2006.

;)

Jay said...

Fat is not one of the adjectives I would use to describe him in those pics. Lacking in muscle tone, sure; skinny armed, definitely; so not the body for that neon what-ever-it-is he's wearing, that's a resounding YEAH! (and let's be honest, that really wouldn't look good on anyone... even a perfect body... it's just on a perfect body you'd look around the horror for the amazement)

I suppose I should count myself blessed... I've never heard any complaints about my nipples. (you gay bois are HARSH)

Moominmama said...

ADDED: um, i just changed my mind.

Michael said...

Yeah, but in the side shot of that nut sling (not depicted here), he's got A WHOLE LOTTA ASS. Oh god, forgive me.
