TopJLax's "Bro's!" & "No's!" of the week 08/08/2010
That's right folks, it's back again. We take a look at current topics in the media and life that are cool or not cool, in our section Bro!!! or No!!!. You may not agree with them all, or any, but hey it's the TopJ take on life. Peace. After all you can always suggest something more apt in the comment section. In fact, please do.
Bro!!!
TopJLax likes Mark Wahlberg, after all he's a bit of a bro, and not only that but a lot of people forget he used to be rapper (maybe that's because he was forgettable as a rapper, but hey, that's all details details. His new movie is called The Fighter and feaures Christian "Batman" Bale as his brother, just out of jail, who trains him to become an awesome boxer. It's a sports movie, with Mark Wahlberg, and hell we just love a good Sports movie.

So who thought a film based around a Nazi influenced German doctor, who has a penchant for performing perverse operations, sewing three people (A Japanese man, and two American girls) head to toe (mouth to ass) and knobbling their kneecaps so they can't walk was a good idea? Well someone did and as such the Human Centipede was born. In fact it's going viral right now and TopJLax have even seen photo's of people with human centipede tattoo's. Watch the trailer if you can stomach it, a horrific idea that is totally not bro to perform on anyone. However for some reason, we might watch it out of curiosity.

It was always the stuff your Dad had up on his dressing table, and there was a reason for that since it smelt like a hunting lodge and a very old tweed jacket. However Old Spice is becoming cool again, and we're not sure if that means that TopJLax has hit the age (the dreaded age) where we can get away with wearing it and in reality the smell hasn't changed, or it's the awesome advertising campaign that graced our Media page. Apparently the bro from the advert has a twitter page where he responds to any comments. If you know where, drop us a link below. We want to ask him if Paul Rabil used Old Spice bodywash, would his flow grow longer and his goals per game average go up. Whatever, we're buying some....

No bro!!!
First off, it'd be reasonably hard for Naomi Campbell to be BRO since she's a dudette. Not to say it isn't possible, just a slightly more challenging route to bro-ism. However, accepting blood diamonds from the Liberian Warlord Charles Taylor, and then testifying about it? That's just not cool. It's no suprise that it was 13 years ago, it's just got bad karma written all over it.

Now it could be just us, but are Moustache's cool again? Or where they always cool? Who knows, but ever since we saw the guy from Old Spice (pay homage above) we've been thinking about growing one. Unfortunately TopJLax is full of pubescent young men, and if we attempt to grow one we'll just look like the kid in school who hasn't been shown how to shave yet (there was always one). If you can do better, send us your pics to articles@topjlax.com and we'll continue the revival.
