Most people have stories about their first date or a date gone horribly wrong -- maybe they're even the same date.
That bitch ruined his first date
Here at Buff Loft (official home of Club Buff), we love a good romance. We love hearing the story about how our bosses met, how their romance blossomed and how they've become an old married couple in the most charming ways.
His performance killed! Well, smashed...
Always fancying himself a songster, Drew spent hours putting on performances in his childhood bedroom. Attendance records were met each time he got new stuffed animals to arrange as an audience. In fact, the crowd was so quiet, Drew often got noise complaints… about his singing.
Under the table, he still came
We’ve all been in situations where we don’t want to run into someone – a specific someone – THAT someone. Maybe it’s an ex or a family friend and you know it’ll be awkward when you cross paths. So, you do what you can to avoid it.
Up against the wall and spread 'em
We’ve all been tempted to steal at some point in our life. Whether we did it or not is another story. For our little Tanner, he has a habit of stealing without realizing it. (Allegedly. Do we have to say allegedly so he doesn’t get charged with something?)
He built it, they came... and almost crapped their pants
The joys of homeownership! Ben, bless his heart, as his fellow southern folk would say. He was practically bursting with pride.
Collin is definitely no Gabe when it comes to pitiful dance moves but he fancies himself a showman when it comes to weddings. His reputation for, uh, unique dance moves precedes him. We've all witnessed the… enthusiasm… he brings to Buff Loft.
Gabe, the pretty boy, is known for pampering himself. Whether that's carrying on a friendship with his botox injector just to get discounts or grabbing a last-minute massage because someone cancelled at the last minute and the spa offered a discount for a short-notice session, Gabe will do anything to spoil himself (on the cheap).
This explains why the neighbors won't have him over
Love thy neighbor, right? Not always.
To be a fly on the wall for this
Ben is the strong silent type. You’re more likely to catch him reading a book in the bath than you are to see him raging on the dancefloor of a sweaty nightclub. Either lying in silence or to the strings of classical music, Ben stays calm… unless something breaks his focus.
It’s natural to be nervous on your first date. It’s an exciting time for a teenager. After all, it could be a lifelong relationship. But, let’s be honest, it’s not. Nevertheless, hours of preparation goes into making it a memorable time for not only you but the date you’re trying to impress.
I don't normally give these a title but here it is: Drew and the Case of the Crocodilian Calamity
You've got the wrong person. Seriously.
Minding his own business, Tanner was having lunch while working on his travel content in Nashville. Sitting in the corner of a sandwich shop, Tan was hammering away on his laptop before heading to his next excursion. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed a woman in her 60s approach his table. He looked over.

The suction is gonna leave a mark! That's gotta suck...
Not that we're vain and caught up on looks (shut up) here at Buff Boy, but we do enjoy an embarrassing story when it makes a teammate look bad -- physically look bad.
Skipping school isn’t a new concept. In fact, it’s a rite of passage in most schools. (There’s actually a “cut day” at the high school I attended, a time when it’s widely known to students and teachers as the designated day to skip class.)
They weren't exactly waving at him
When a teenager gets his first car, he’s spending countless hours washing it, picking off every piece of lint and not allowing anyone to park too close. For Collin, his rich parents bought him a car for his sweet 16. And between looking at himself in the mirror and striking out with relationships, how did he find the time to take care of a massive piece of machinery?
There's nothing more a teen boy wants than the house to himself so he can, well, ya know. It's one thing to risk it when others are home but when the coast is clear you can really enjoy, well, ya know.
Tasted like chicken... or did it?
Most kids had some kind of food that they didn’t like. My little brother wouldn’t eat stuff because “it’s ugly.” It was often met with, “Just try it, you’ll like it.” That had varying degrees of success.
Hold the presses, put down those lukewarm lattes and gather ‘round. There's another Buff Boy scandal brewing -- pun definitely intended.
Buff Boy Collin thinks his dimples and botox'ed face can get him out of any sort of trouble he might find himself in. Whether it's a speeding ticket or "accidentally" not paying for a chocolate bar at the store and having an employee stop him as he heads for the door (maybe that's for another gossip column), Collin feels he's untouchable. (And knowing his dating life, he mostly touches himself. Am I already getting sidetracked before I even start this story? Focus.)
Always the back-up singer and never the headliner. That’s the story of Drew’s life. Once Drew discovered musicals, his life was one big song – whether you wanted to hear it or not. For the most part, it’s the latter.
BREAKING BUFF: We're under a tsunami alert... in WeHo!
JULY 29, 11:03 P.M.
Ah, Gabe. A man of formidable physical prowess, a true titan of the tarmac, a marathon runner whose strides could put gazelles to shame. In the hallowed halls of Buff Loft, he’s known for his steely determination, his calm demeanor and his uncanny ability to make a 10K look like a leisurely stroll to the fridge.
