King Arthur reportedly had so many chivalrous warriors at his famous round table dat we do not know for sure who all sat there; let's hope dat da noble Sebastion had da honor of being among them.

What the Red Green Show's "Men Anonymous" meetings are intended to identify and spell out so that its cluelessly insensitive "I'm a man, but I can change, I guess" members can know how they should behave towards their fellow humans, and especially in regards to how they treat women.
Proper guydlines are all well and good, but just like the dilemma with self-help books (i.e., anyone of the type who is willing to read said books probably doesn't need to because most likely he is already totally conscientious and caring, and anyone who could benefit from said advice-tomes won't read them because he arrogantly claims that he doesn't have an attitude-problem in the first place ), they really wouldn't do much good as a whole --- most of the guys who would be willing to follow said rules are already gentle unassuming milquetoasts who would not likely have been overly macho anyway, and anyone who should go by these social customs will not train himself about them, anyway, because by his very nature, he would be someone who callously values his overbearing testosterone-steeped freedom over common courtesy.

Refers to how large hairy hominids are often wary and shy when trying out new things, and so they tend to hesitate and ponder all possible options before proceeding.
The great apes are naturally unfamiliar with human customs of interaction, so don't be offended or disappointed if a giant simian displays a "gorilla pause" before holding out its "gorilla paws" in greeting.

Any comparably-likeable/handsome/capable male who temporarily "fills in" for the "usual" dude who would ordinarily accompany a girl on a stroll or dinner-date (extra points for the chick if she reciprocates --- sending her sister or cute cousin in her place on occasions where she unexpectedly has to stay home to help her family and therefore would otherwise have to sorrowfully cancel the date with her heart-throb), hang out with one or more other guys and/or assist them with a repair/construction project, etc., but then is abruptly called away on important business and thus is unable to be present himself on that occasion.
Being a substidude is not necessarily such a bad thing --- not only do you get to help out your buddies in times of need, but you also get to meet all of the interesting/pleasant/attractive people whom the guys you're "filling in" for were originally going to spend time with, and so you have a chance to broaden your networking horizons and acquire new friends... many a lifetime/long-term friendship has begun in this way, where Person A offered to "sub" for Person B who was unable to keep a previously-arranged appointment with Person C, and then Person A and Person C became good friends, as well... nuthin' screams "nice considerate person who might make a good friend to me" than someone who willingly steps in to assist during a time of need.

Exaggerated pseudo-aggressive behavior dat does not actually make someone feel threatened or compelled to act against his will.
Just as with any type of deceptive joking, hyperbully should only be used if you know for sure dat da recipient of said posturing is aware dat you're "just shootin' blanks" --- many unfortunate incidents have occurred where someone had honestly but incorrectly thought dat someone was "being serious" when he'd blurted out a seemingly-ferocious/dictatorial statement, and so said concerned individual had been stressfully "traumatized for nothing". Plus of course, if overused, said phony-strongarming tactics can also backfire big time, in dat eventually others will assume dat you are always "crying wolf" whenever you act forceful or urgent, and so they may invalidly --- or even tragically --- ignore/disregard your outbursts on an isolated occasion when there actually is indeed a genuine reason to be concerned and take swift action, such as in an emergency.

You can indeed say dat to da staff at da local True Value Hardware store, but good luck on getting any discounts or other "preferential perks" as a result.
Perhaps da famous radio-ad phrase, "...and tell 'em Pat Summerall sent you" might have been more recognizable "way back when" during da time when everyone's favorite deep-and-rich-tone-voiced Irish sportscaster was making those ads, but in more-modern times, da Cotter & Co. stores' mostly-from-da-newer-generation employees will likely just give you puzzled looks if you jokingly spout said remark when you walk in da door. :P
