Video: Just A Couple of Douchebags Hiking Runyon Canyon (NSFW)
Warning: This video is NSFW due to language.
Runyon - watch more funny videos
True story: Last night as I was leaving the gym, a guy asked me if the place was full of people who are full of themselves. "I don't think it's high in the douchey factor," I qualified. As it turns out, if this Funny or Die video is spoofily accurate, all the douchebaggy dudes in L.A. have ditched the gym in favor of Runyon Canyon.
These dudes abuse the word "dude," along with "fuck" and "sorta," and one may or may not have raped his girlfriend (Hilar or too far? Your call). Besides their sexy physiques, workout regimens, and estranged girlfriends, these asshat dudes also discuss the miracle of coconut water: "That shit's mad refreshing, bro."

Do you work out with these dudes up at Runyon?
At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.
But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.
We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else.
