18) $15-$40 As a kid in Upper Marlboro, Jimmy Mavrikes was obsessed with ‘90s boy band NSYNC and JC Chasez — not Justin Timberlake, Lance Bass, or one of the others — was his indisputably favorite member.   “NSYNC was definitely an awakening for me,” says the award-winning out actor. “I was too young to understand, but I did know that watching five really cute guys sing and dance in sync if you will, was something exciting.” What’s more, there was a connection.

The absurdist brainchild of Aaron Jackson and Josh Sharp, “Dicks” is an unapologetically puerile, hard-R novelty that’s just lo-fi enough to maintain its underground cred.
