Stop it, stop it, stop it.

OK, apparently no one is else is going to say it, so I guess I have to. Christ, I'm always the one to be the asshole. Well, I guess that's my lot in life.

STOP WEARING TRUCKER HATS, YOU FUCKING MORONS. THAT WENT OUT OF STYLE LIKE SIX YEARS AGO.

OK. Maybe I'm not the one to talk about this. I wear the same work clothes everyday, cuz I'm a fucking ADULT who busts his ass and gets covered with grease for a living, and then has to drink beer to cope with the awfulness of it. But I used to be heavily involved in the trends back about '98, '99, '00 when I was skinny and when I was young, and when I decided it was cool to buy the latest clothes. JESUS H! I still see kids downtown wearing the same crap I saw them wearing when I was in college, and that was like, 10 years ago.

Also, you think those track jackets at Target are cool? Check out this picture of Ben from Everything But the Girl. Think that's retro? That album is 10 years old. I wore that fucking jacket in middle school, bitch.

So, just knock it off. Or, rather, stop knocking it off. Trucker hats, tight sweaters, bowling shoes, track jackets: out of style as of 1999.

Baggy pants, wallet chains? Out of style as of 1997

Technicolor hair, out of style as of 1983.

Irony: out of style as of right now.

Why can't you kids come up with your own style? Let's see something from this century. Please.

PS: Yes, I'm going to regret this post when I have kids of my own. But for now...

You realize that kids will be wearing knickers and spats and the girls will sport bloomers and Gibson Girls hair-dos...

There is no such thing as a new style.

I remember when clogs came back in during the very early 90s. I SWORE I would not buy a pair, but I did.

Fashion is stupid AND insidious. Maybe bowties are next?

best post ever.

I like bowties. They will never be in style. Pediatricians and gastroenterologist wear them so they don't get shit on their tie (think about it). I wear clogs daily. Blood stains your socks, unless you have an occlusive shoe like a leather clog. They are also comfortable for standing on your feet, in the same spot all day (like in the OR). Practical clothes dictate my wardrobe.

Wait, this means I have to get rid of all my tight sweaters?
