I have invented a new sport. Hanger-styling. Xtreme-hanger-styling I dare say. Oooh Xtreme...

So what's hanger-styling you ask? How can I be one of the cool kids? Well sit down ye sheep and I'll show you how to join the flock of awesome.

Get a metal coat hanger. Nothing fancy, anything other than the basic abortion-style hanger is considered illegal. If your friends bring this contraband to a hanger-style-off the rules give you license to a 'free beats' session not to exceed thirty mississippi seconds, and under the assumption that the givers can restrain the offender.

All hangees must choose a country to represent, but may not choose their nation of origin.

Alright this next part is optional, but hangee's should follow it. Turn on some good fast paced techno/industrial/hardcore music to 'hang-out' to. If you listen to shitty music, turn up the Dashboard Confessional. Hanger-styling is for you too. No politics here, everyone's invited to the Orgy party!.

There are four areas the index finger may rest the hanger on so that it hangs downwards in the starting position (which are the top loop, and the three inner corners). As the hangee begins, he/she utilizes the fingers, wrist, other hand, remainder of the arm, or (in more advanced hangees, the legs and feet) to twist, contort, gyrate, rotate, spin, and otherwise maneuver the hanger with speed and/or accuracy. Failure occurs when connection with the hanger is lost and it flies from the hangee or otherwise hits the ground. Common moves include the fingerspin, transferring the hanger between fingers/hands/the three four hanging areas on the hanger. It's really at the discretion of the hangee, and it is their existential burden to create and harness new moves and techniques.

There are two main laws. No stopping or holding the hanger, it must always be in motion (a session may not last longer than 5 minutes). The other law is the session must end in a cool pose and/or finishing maneuver.

Hanger-styling is the first sport to officially copyright a catch phrase unofficially. 'Oh Snap' is now the official saying of the Hangerstyling Association of the Universe. It can be used to express pleasure at a brilliance and disdain at idiocy with a turn of inflection. If a hangee/observer uses anything other than 'Oh Snap' or an appropriate profanity, hit the offender in the forum and say 'bonk' for each offence. Make them hurt or irritated for their ignorance. Other authorized expressions include 'the heat is on' and 'Wiggity-wack'.

The Hangerstyling Association of the Universe officially endorses the Marijuana Party of Canada and the democratic regimes of Uzbekistan and Tajikistan, we consider any political stance or statement by a prominent actor, singer, or sports figure to have the gravity of law. The official church is Scientology.

The Hangerstyling Association of the Universe supports 'conversion' to hangerstyling by all methods short of inquisition tactics. Zealous missionaries in this digital age should use the wildly popular method of 'spyware' or what we like to call 'trojans of truth'. Two word marketing solutions: banner ads, pop-ups, spam mail...the 'World Wide Internet' is at the forefront of promotions today.

If your old/poor/don't use computers, hop on your bike and start ringing those doorbells. Spread the word on the street! The heat is on!

The greatest hangee at the moment is me, the creator, but as the glorious internet and word of mouth spreads, this is bound to change with time.

Say what you will, but this sport is no less valid than an 'Xtreme' sport involving balancing on a curved board with wheels on it, shoes with wheels on the bottom of them, or sliding a smooth rock down a sanded ice arena (thats curling, you American dunderheads).

Pictures/ads are forcoming for this sport. readmeliveabook this is an open invitation to create the face, nay, the very image of Hanger-style, your work on the 'Broomer' concept was brilliant. I haven't talked to you in a long time...how are you? We used to be like best friends...ANYWAY
