I guess so. At least he is not as douchey as Garbrandt. But why do people need chest and neck tattoos to demonstrate they are douchey? Be less of that. Danzig may have a rubber chest (which he cannot control) but at least he doesn't lather it all up with stupid tattoos of things like tiger stripes, peoples names, and generic Japanese texts. Not to mention whatever the crap-Christ-hell Garbrandt's throat is on about. Poirier seems like an okay guy though, so maybe there's that. What are you even rambling about Justin? I don't even know anymore..........
