Motorcyclist heads out, beer belly and all, with a bandana and a vest on. Sits his fat sweaty ass on his custom leather seat and cruises the strip revving his bike to get as much attention as possible. The most grueling thing he does is stopping at the diner and gorging at the buffet.

Not even a question to which of the two is manlier.

What if I'm 6'0", 140 lbs and popping a wheelie for a quarter-mile while smoking a cigarette? And then I punch a dolphin in the mouth?

This.

Also, whenever I hurt myself, I just bandage it up and keep on going. If it's not bleeding, I don't even bother with the bandage.
My wife just rolls here eyes if I come in hurt after working on something. Something about the paper towel/duct tape bandage does that to her.

As for being a badass, per ATOT standards, I leave my house occasionally, and usually unarmed!
:biggrin:

I'm badass because I can save lives likes Hannibal Lecter kills people. I don't even break a sweat.

Patient yesterday comes in with an anaphylactic allergic reaction to a bee sting(read: trying to die on me), I don't think my heart rate got above 90 the whole time. Just doesn't phase me.

Probably why I'm so good at the job, you could come in missing a leg, mangled the hell up and then my heart rate might get to 100. Just doesn't bother me.

Well I'm glad you are a nurse then ... I considered it as a career but decided I couldn't cut it :)

I eat waffles for breakfast. When I'm angry, I punch pillows. I also ride public transportation, in San Francisco.
