the following list of GBS Approved Things You Can Like™ was created to help you!

being an adult is NOT about deciding for yourself what you will wear, watch, eat and listen to, but rather it's making sure you conform to certain GBS-approved standards as much as possible.


LIKE THESE OR YOU ARE A MANBABY

- steaks (expensive cuts and only rare)

- swim briefs that show off your dick

- arthouse films

- fedoras

- music made before 1965

- cigars (only super expensive)

- golf

- expensive clothes

- expensive food

- expensive drinks (remember -- if it costs lots of $$ that means it's for adults)



What does GBS NOT approve of? Well gosh are you in for a ride! We don't have room for everything so here are the highlights:


HATE THESE OR YOU ARE A MANBABY

- ketchup

- hersheys chocolate (lol gross right? lol it's literal poop)

- pretty much all food that isn't handpicked by an organic farmer and delivered by wagon to an upscale grocery store

- regular swimming trunks for some reason

- any popular movie

- any popular music

- cartoons

- video games

- cheap clothing

- fun

- colors


I know I missed a bunch of stuff so please help me add to the list! We need to teach newbies how to stop making decisions for themselves.

As a fully-functioning adult, you must ABSOLUTELY hate reddit, as our forums are much better. You must also hate MLP but tolerate/enjoy Adventure Time, a cartoon made for children

What's cool about this article is how it expressly says on several occasions that you should own this or that particular item not because of its utility to you but because of what it symbolically represents or in other words that you should own this not because you are a man but in order to have the appearance of a man you should own this.

Once I tried to put ketchup on my burger and out of nowhere a razor sharp demonic fedora flew in from left-field and severed my burger-arm off clean. Through the ringing pain in my head I heard the ghostly hat speak "try reading goons with spoons once in a while"

When I was picking out swim trunks a large figure rose from the middle of the circular rack, wearing a half-mask so that only a neck beard was visible. The neckbeard jiggled and communicated almost telepathically with me, "don't make the conscious decision to look like a child". The figure then sank back into the rack.
