Broad of chest. Pure of heart. Dumb of ass.
The study of Himbology takes a look at those delightfully vacant darlings, those human golden retrievers, and dares to ask the question: "is [blank] a himbo?" You too will be questioning if every person, place and inanimate object in your life is a himbo once you listen, and we take no responsibility for the effect it has on your personal and professional relationships.

Is Waymond Wang (Everything Everywhere All At Once, 2023) a Himbo?
Stick on your googly eyes and toast your bagels – it’s time to verse-jump into the impossibly great film Everything Everywhere All At Once, and ask the essential question: is Waymond Wang a Himbo? Ke Huy Quan’s performance was rich and multi-faceted enough to remind the world how great he is, but how Pure of […]

Is Kronk a Himbo?
Ok, hear me out – before you start yelling YES OBVIOUSLY at your device, which you would be right to do, remember that there are some complexities to our 66 Long/31 Waist broad-shouldered lad. He's good with kids, he's a keen chef, he's – ah fuck, I'm really not adding any mystery here, am I?

Is Channing Tatum (The Lost City, 2022) a Himbo?
Technically we’re referring to Channing’s character in the aggressively fine 2022 film The Lost City, but sincerely, I can only think of him as Channing Tatum.

Stiller was probably more jacked than you remember (especially by the pre-MCU standards of the time), but is Derek a Himbo or a Himbecile?

Keanu Reeves is a figure well known to Himbologists, and Ted Theodore Logan (from Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure [1989]) is one of Keanu's earliest and most vacant boys. But does the San Dimas teen and rock saviour have the makings of a human golden retriever?

Is Inspector Gadget a Himbo?
Go go Gadget nostalgia! Childhood classics rarely age well, so does Inspector Gadget (of the original cartoon; Matthew Broderick does not enter consideration) live up to the lofty standards of himbodom? Can a cop even be a Himbo? Is there a limit on how many rhetorical questions I can fit in a paragraph?? As always, […]
