It's just plain incorrect. That writer obviously doesn't know what a douchbag is, which is kind of hard to believe since we're living in the biggest decade of douchbaggery since the '80s. Everyone from CEO's to celebrities continue to shock and amaze with their public displays of douchbaggery.Calling Bukowski "the poet of douchebags" is just plain wrong.
My only question is this: can a woman be considered a douchbag too? Cuz there's no shortage of the female version out and about these days. (hmm, Kim Kardashian comes to mind)
