Extramarital Affairs

The lowdown on extramarital affairs is often murky. One hand, you’re married and you vowed to exclusively bone your significant other. A vow is a vow. On the other hand, you’ve been engaging in some extremely pleasurable humps lately, and to be frank — you’re life is exciting again! Decency here, indecency there, so The Community [...]

Chopping Slabs of Ice at Bars

One of the most overlooked scenes in cinematic history, this four minute stretch of Karate Kid Part II is basically the definitive display on what it means to be decent. Let’s examine:

First of all, that has to be one of the coolest bars I’ve ever seen. The place was rockin hard in [...]

That’s What She Said

Much to the delight and adoration of your assembled friends a perfectly timed “That’s What She Said” joke never fails to extol decent laughs from everyone. This staple of the sexual innuendo has held an important role in every major conversation throughout history and still is very relevant if not required in our everyday lives.
A [...]

Dying Words From a Hoagie

(What follows is a transcript of an anonymous hoagie’s last words.)
“I’ve often imagined how my last minutes would be written. As a hoagie, we’re born knowing that being eaten is inevitable, and finally, today, my divine decree has come. ‘Number 13 - The Dirty Sanchez.’ I heard it about a minute ago, and before I could say [...]

Commentary on Cell Phones

For the past two hours, I’ve been staring at my old hunk-of-shit cell phone, thinking about how uncool everyone thinks I am when they see me use it. In case you didn’t know, your level of coolness is totally proportional to how cool your cell phone is. Mobile phones pretty much [...]

Decent Ways To Breakup With Someone

We’ve all been there…the dumper…the dumpee. The dreaded breakup is such an ordeal because usually one person winds up hurt and the other feels guilty. Sometimes it is mutual and amicable (”We’ve fallen outta love - let’s go bowling and slam-bang one last time before I pack up your stuff!”), sometimes the rage is mutual (broken televisions, stolen or tampered [...]

The Decency of Haikus


One of the most decent pastimes for members of our Community is taking part in the drafting of haikus (or as we often refer to them - ”kus”). There’s nothing quite as settling as lounging next to a bubbling stream, watching bluebirds fuck, and penning your feelings about it. Become the tree, transform yourself into Mother Earth’s soil, [...]

DC Rules of the Game — The Jerry Springer Solution

In this week’s Decent Community’s Rules of the Game we examine relationships. The tell tale rule of thumb to determine if you are in a good relationship can be summed up in two words: Jerry Springer.
The rule is simple, if you* are unsure about you satisfaction in your current relationship you should [...]

Allen Toussaint - From a Whisper to a Scream

After receiving some feedback from Community readers, it’s come to our attention that our constituency would like us to devote more content to decent jams. So today, The Community takes a look at a true diamond in the rough, Allen Toussaint’s exceptional 1970 album, From a Whisper to a Scream. So much to like about this album and artist — [...]

One of the Best Jams Ever

MOTHA!!!!! Clearly one of the most decent jams of all time! I get all choked up just thinking about it. For Chrissakes, Glenn Danzig is one of the most important artists of our generation, and seeing him shirtless in the video, long sweaty hair, physique akin to a brick shit-house, head banging, and [...]

You May be a Jerk if…

Navin R. Johnson aka The Jerk
You are really good at something, you dress really nicely, you do something super nice to your girlfriend in front of all your friends and their girlfriends, you are mean to people — the literal meaning of a jerk, you do something extraordinarily smooth at an awkward time, if you [...]

Accidental Use of Caps Lock

Darrell: How are you?
Cindy: REALLY GOOD, I’M JUST REALLY MELLOW RIGHT NOW!
Darrell: Really, because you don’t seem like it. Why are you soo “mellow”?
Cindy: I’M JUST LAYING IN BED AND IT’S REALLY PEACFUL RIGHT NOW!
Darrell: That’s nice. How’s your kitten?
Cindy: MY KITTEN IS SOO CHILL. I’M PETTING HER RIGHT NOW AND SHE’S PURRING. IT’S SOO [...]

Mmmm…Bacon

When I’m bored, horny, hungry, or disinterested, there’s one thing that immediately comes to mind — BACON! Bacon is one of the most decent foods in The Community and makes just about any situation brighter. The smell, the sizzle, the wallop that hits your mouth — I’m sitting in about two feet of drool just thinking [...]

The Apple iBangle — What’s Next?

Not sure if you guys have heard about this new iBangle from Apple. It’s a redesigned, fashionable iPod that looks like a bracelet. It’s got all the music controls, a device to let air in and out so you can wear it comfortably, and wireless headphones. Now this sounds like a decent idea, but it got [...]

Gold Boob Cuff Links

My Christmas wish list has just shrunk to one item. If anyone out there can find or make me what I need I will gladly pay top dollar. Yes, I will buy myself a Christmas present. What is soo important that I would selfishly indulge myself in this season of giving? Gold boob cuff links. Some companies make [...]

Is There a Community Member Stereotype?

People are forever trying to define and typecast others so they fit into a specific understanding of the world. Surfer dudes are gnarly (above), monks are contemplative, rappers are drug dealers, and ladies with huge ta-tas are bimbos. Truck drivers are great arm wrestlers, albinos are creepy, Wall Street guys are ass [...]

Weis Returns to New England

I AM WEIS! Saturday night the only two Catholic Universities in D1 College Football take to the gridiron. I’d like to root for the hometown team, but I’m no fool. Lest we forget that Weis is still the man. The man that orchestrated multiple Championships for New England has been somewhat forgotten; buried in the [...]

My Morning

I Wake up, shower off and am forced to take a post shower poop (my day is ruined), get dressed, almost run over a million people on the way to work, have a some light road rage, grab a morning cup of coffee, arrive to work, sit down, look at The Community for an hour [...]
