Chris, 26, a self-described "alpha heterosexual" who only dates "8 to 10's," also reveals how displeased he is if a woman he's seeing gains a few pounds.

"I'm not tolerant of that at all," declares the actor, who says he has no problem telling his swollen squeeze to shape up.


This language and doctrine are straight outta mASF.

Klein then rejects the interviewer's suggestion that "they're just looking for you to say, 'You look beautiful to me, honey.'" "If they do, it's placating," he scoffs. "I don't placate."


This is a bad choice of word, because placation is totally called for and appropriate here; the trick is accomplishing it without supplicating.

That's their big buzzword, "supplicating," and it's what Chris meant to say. I guess the reporter misheard, or that Chris substituted a shorter, same-sounding word because using "supplicate" in conversation makes you sound like a pretentious jerkoff.
