DoucheArt: 2014-04-20

This is our first edition of Douche of the Week. Each Monday from now on we'll be asking for your votes on who qualifies as the douchiest. We'll take those votes and submissions until Friday when we announce our winner. There are a few rules to guide you in selecting your vote. It can't be a personal story and must be someone you've seen in the news or seen articles about. You have to also link to a story that proves your point.

Since we're a new page, we've taken the liberty of choosing our first Douche of the Week on our own just to give you a feel for what we're looking for with submissions/votes.

This week's winner is the major whiner David Choe. Choe was a graffiti artist who was paid millions by Facebook to paint their walls at headquarters and ultimately whined about the loss of privacy (instead of being grateful for the opportunity). While that certainly makes him a bit of a doucher, it's the headlines he appeared in this week that qualify him for our very first douche of the week.

"She said yes with her eyes" was his justification for forcing oral sex on a masseuse. He co-hosts a sex-talk podcast with a porn star and during one of these podcasts last month, he recounted details of how during a massage he began jerking off then physically forced the masseuse to go down on him despite her adamant nos. When public backlash ensued following the podcast, he began whining this week that it wasn't fair he is being painted as a rapist and is now claiming that the story wasn't true. That he told it for entertainment value.

Let me be perfectly fucking clear, David, RAPE IS NOT ENTERTAINMENT. There is no artistic value in going on a podcast and detailing a sexual assault. I highly suspect that it was a true story, and that since people have actually called you out on your disgusting, unlawful behavior, you are now trying to cover your ass. I imagine, quite frankly, that you only did so out of fear that you would lose money and never get your knob polished again. And that's what makes you an even bigger douche--you're only sorry for yourself. Never once have you apologized for your crude, perhaps completely illegal and horrific, behavior. You're scum. You're scum for doing it, for telling the story thinking it would make you look like some kind of badass, and especially for whining about the unwanted effects of your little tale.

Here are a couple of links to check out the story in case you missed it, but there is definitely a trigger warning associated with the second one.
