The Underrated Highlight Of Barstool Beach House Thus Far Has Been Watching Danny Conrad And Tommy Smokes Act Like Gentleman While Walking Down The Street

Listen Barstool Beach House is dominating the airwaves and the internet. Everyone is invested, everyone loves the real time format and it’s all over the place across socials. Have seen a ton of Tik Toks of reactions, their takes, and people saying they keep refreshing every 5 seconds. Dominating. 

You expected to see all the lunacy and high speed antics that come with single young people chasing skirt or shaking skirts down the Jersey Shore. It’s a tradition that goes back to when Adam and Eve had a house in Point Pleasant in 3872 BC. So yes everyone is going to be glued to Nicky Smokes creating new words for fornication or creating catchphrases like he’s Clyde Frazier … “hanging and banging” … “ass clapping and hand slapping” … or “dancing and romancing” . That’s what is expected. The fights, the antics, the airing of dirty laundry and Katic finding a new bar to take his shirt off at. But much like reality shows in the past. The lunacy is what’s advertised and the big characters are what dominate the trailers or the clips but it’s the little moments or interactions that people love. Like Vinny and Pauly just talking. One of those underrated moments for me has been Tommy and Danny keeping an age old tradition still alive. 

Now a quick history lesson in chivalry passed down from fathers and grandfathers for centuries that I was lucky enough to learn is that men are supposed to walk on the street side (closest to the street side) with a woman. Forever I didn’t know why and did a deep dive into that. It’s actually pretty disgusting via its origin.

Ok, so it is an ancient tradition and nowadays people don’t really pay attention to it. And that’s fine – you should walk in any way you want. If your date wants to walk on the side of the sidewalk, don’t try to squeeze yourself in there to prove how much of a gentleman you are. Poop is not falling from the sky anymore anyway.

Nowadays we think that a man should walk on the edge of the sidewalk for protection. If someone loses control of the car, he should be the one to get hit first. Or if there is a puddle on the side of the street – a man should get splashed and not the woman. Those are all good reasons and so was poop.

You see, in the Middle Ages life in English cities were a bit different. Everything smelled disgustingly and there were trenches of open sewage basically everywhere. So it wasn’t just puddle water that was getting splashed on passers-by – there was also a horse manure in water (it rained all the time in England back in the day too). However, humans were not much better.

Back in the day emptying your chamber-pot through the window was a normal practice. Again, those who walked closer to the walls were less likely to get covered in feces. And so, because a gentleman is always prepared to sacrifice himself in honour of his woman, he was the one to get his clothes dirty.

But chivalrous none the less. I feel like it’s a lost art in life and especially down the Jersey Shore where people move fast and quick looking for their next dance partner or more. It’s good to see the young bucks are still keeping the gentleman aspect alive in an environment where it feels like it could be extinct one of these days.
