They're everywhere. Greased-up foreheads. Spiky, frosted cactus hair. Glittering designer dog tags. Giant blinged-out diamond necklaces swinging wildly around their necks as they pump their fists to Euro-trash techno. A societal spew.

These primal, grunting spawns of Satan prowl across our country like a marauding horde of Unholy Douche Crusaders, inhabiting our cities and flooding our suburbs like a rancid plague. They're everywhere: large metropolitan areas, suburban strip malls, even in empty, vacuous wastelands like the Everglades of Florida, or Dallas, Texas.

From sea to douchey sea, ours is a culture overwhelmed by this festering blight, a perfect storm of greased-up bodies, plucked eyebrows, and tight see-through Armani/Exchange T-shirts.

And then there's the other half of the equation. The hotties by their sides, perched on their arms like dazed Serengeti Boobie Parrots. Sweet melon balls of befuddled youth balancing, circus-act-style, on ginormous high heels.

Innocent cuties, lost in the maze of fist-pumping douchewanks, completely oblivious to the hulking half-human monstrosities clutching at their thighs.

How did this happen?

What answers lie beneath this paradox of hottie and douchebag? And how did our society reach this rank state of cultural douche-rot?

These are the questions we are driven to explore.

Hot Chicks With Douchebags (Simon Spotlight Entertainment, available July 8) identifies and describes the wide variety of douchebags plaguing our great nation. For the comprehensive history and taxonomy of douchebags, you'll need to read the guide. But we're pleased to offer you a sample gallery of various douchebags for your disgust and edification.
