** Against bishounen boys, and the fans that keep suggesting they appear. [[http://thepunchlineismachismo.com/archives/899 Best. Spite comic. Ever.]] In the commentary, the author notes that the entire comic is also one to overly manly characters that their creators think are badass, but aren't, and that fans who insisted on the bishonen are missing the point.

* UnusualHiringPractices: Seems to hire people for, among other things, their pectoral girth. The only person who has avoided this so far is Jared, by virtue of the Commander's interest in his story and making {{Pokemon}} battles interesting to watch.

* AnythingThatMoves: The comic's version of [[VideoGame/DragonAgeOrigins The Warden]] is this. He seems especially fond of the Qunari, particularly [[VideoGame/DragonAgeInquisition Iron Bull]].

Bishonen is Definition-Only fan-speak term used only for Japanese/East-Asian media. No examples allowed. Per TRS. Since the wicks here are discussing the trope, it is allowed to stay as inline wicks.


* {{Bishonen}}:
** [[http://thepunchlineismachismo.com/archives/899 They don't quite fit in this comic.]]
** Nier spread [[TheVirus Nomura Syndrome]] that turned everyone into a bishōnen. In the case of [[VideoGame/TheBouncer Volt]] he's been living with it his entire life, but when told that he'd never be able to bench-press his own weight [[DareToBeBadass he took it as a challenge]]. And then there's Music/{{Gackt}}, who secretly is every single Creator/SquareEnix protagonist.

Sadly, the comic lost out the contest, but was by far a favorite among those paying attention to the contest, making it popular enough for its creator, Coelasquid, to keep it going. The series carried on, on a fairly punctual weekly basis, for years, until Coelasquid went on an indefinite hiatus. A backup can be found [[https://archive.org/details/manly_guys_doing_manly_things here]].

It can be beheld [[http://thepunchlineismachismo.com/ here]] in all its '''manly''' glory.
