AMMN Essential #1: The Man-Cave

What do all modern, angry cavemen need? A Man-Cave, of course! The most important thing about Angry Man is a place to host unfettered viewings. A place wear women fear to tread: the Man-Cave. What is a Man-Cave? A place where you have been forced to store the items that you hold most dear, that the wife/girlfriend feels "won't match the decor" or are "just plain icky" and not for general consumption. Usually this encompasses "clutter" like electronics, video games, computers and the extra large TV that YOU require to make it through this excruciating modern existence. The most likely place to find a cave? Underground. Perhaps created as a necessity for protection against the suffering of a suburban life, the finished basement found in the typical ranch or raised ranch dwelling is the perfect place to find or make a cave. Much like the fort you used to create in your bedroom with a blanket draped from the bed to the desk, the Man-Cave is your sanctuary, your womb. I urge you to create your own refuge, or find a friend with one to host your Angry Man night. Here's a helpful list of the things you might find in a Man-Cave:

1. Large Television w/ surround sound
2. Computer
3. Gaming system
4. Old crappy couch
5. Horror/cult/sexy movie posters
6. Lots of porno
7. Racks of media - games, dvds, cds
8. Auxiliary fridge w/ beer
9. Some sort of pot smoking devise
10. Musical instruments
11. Car parts
12. Tools
13. More porno
14. Household items that are broken and waiting for repair

Angry Man - A History

A few years ago, a few of us got together and said, let's watch movies. Manly movies. Movies that are good, bad and mostly ugly. (please refer to the rules at top of blog.) Things that most women would leave the room in disgust upon viewing or even at the mere mention of. That's it.

Why "Angry"? Well my friend Bryan has a very close friend and mutual friend of mine, Brian. In order to delineate between the two (and create a fun nickname at the same time) Angry Brian, the nomenclature, was born. It's not that Brian was excessively angry - more of a brooding and dark type, which if you ask me are good qualities. Perhaps this stemmed from a not-so-great-at-the-time female relationship, or simply part of his nature. At any rate, the name stuck. Being that it was a fun name and Bryan, "Angry" and myself were all present at the viewings, the Angry was quickly transferred to Angry Man Movie Night.

Angry Brian has since moved away from the area, but the name has stuck. Consider this a re-launch and formalization of one fantastic idea. I urge you - start your own Angry Night - free of the constraints and pressures of modern society. Grab your caveman club and JOIN US!
