Play It Cool, Guys
At first glance, these guys look cool and handsome. You want to get closer to them... but then you realize they're all clumsy! They forget their wallets, turn on their music on the train without putting their headphones in, put on glasses when they have their contacts in, stab bendy straws backwards into drinks, walk around with a shoehorn that they thought was an umbrella… Despite being so clumsy, these guys never forget to play it cool.
