In the sea of entertainment options, it’s hard to break through. Take Rob Lowe and his new comedy half-hour series The Grinder.
It’s a clever and often hilarious take on those overly dramatic law procedurals co-staring Fred Savage, but how to get the word out?
Well, luckily for Lowe, he’s discovered a new app that exists solely to connect guys who love to watch The Grinder.
It’s called Grindr, and guys from all over can link up so they can chat, meet up and, of course, watch The Grindr.
One guy Rob chats with is even DTF, just like Rob — a “dedicated television fan.”
Watch below as Rob navigates his way around this new digital wonderland:

Please don’t show Grindr to any more straight people. We need to stop giving this sick app any publicity. Full of closeted (and even married… yuck!) men with STDs.

@zooby:
I know, right? And stop showing us gays Tinder, Adult Friend Finder, and any of the CL M4W/W4M/NSA/Casual Encounters stuff because god knows we’d be absolutely SHOCKED at some of the shit goin’ on there!
And especially a person less capable of seeing the humor in Grindr than Rob Lowe, whose entire career has been spent in Hollywood, the cradle of puritanical morality and chastity, never mind that he spent a good portion of the 80’s living down the sex tape he made with underage girls.

Was pretty funny, but I feel the audience was more laughing at us than laughing with us. I don’t think that was Lowe’s intention.

@Glücklich: Grindr, Tinder, AFF – Idc, they’re all the same. I know many more gay men on Grindr than straight people on Tinder / CL / whatever.
This is not about Rob Lowe – there are many videos out there “Gays show Grindr to their straight friends!” trying to seem comical. As if Grindr is something that represents us gays. No, it only represents the morally corrupt / desperate gays… wait, not even the gays as the app includes men who like to classify themselves as “straight” while they bang guys on the side without their wive’s consent. What a lovely app!

Too funny. Did the writer of the article even watch the clip? Lowe jokes that the one guy is a ‘Definite television fan’ not a ‘Dedicated Television fan’.

It was all in fun and very funny. You bitchy queens that have a problem with it need to get your heads out of your asses and lighten up.
