A Tony Man refers to someone who judges another person's playstyle in a video game or their approach to a situation based on their own preferences or standards. This term also describes an individual who tends to vanish from social circles unless there's food or alcohol involved, but suddenly reappears once these elements are hinted at, even after a prolonged period of silence. Additionally, a Tony Man can also be known as a "baby man" who displays child-like behaviors, especially concerning food, physical exercise, and social situations. This includes avoiding adult food, such as sauces, and exhibiting other immature traits.
"Bro, stop being a Tony Man! I want to punch the tree; I don't want the tools you looted from the villagers. LET ME CRAFT!"
"Dude, stop being a Tony Man. We just want to be there to support Mark; his dad just died! The bar can wait, you asshole."
A Baby Man, sometimes interchangeably referred to as A Tony Man, denotes an individual exhibiting child-like behaviors, particularly in aspects like food preferences, hygiene, and social interactions. This includes a reluctance to consume adult foods, avoidance of sauces, neglect of personal hygiene, and displaying immaturity in various situations. A Tony Man often judges others based on their own standards, disappears from social circles until food or alcohol is involved, and may exhibit behaviors akin to a Baby Man, such as reluctance to engage in adult responsibilities or confrontations.

"I can't deal with Sarah's friend anymore; he's both a Baby Man and a Tony Man. He raided my fridge last time he came over, criticized everything, and then vanished until the next barbecue."
"Tom's turning into a classic Baby Man, or perhaps we should start calling him A Tony Man. He avoids salads like the plague and only shows up when there's free booze. Such a child."
