That’s awesome mental imagry right there!
I’ve seen it . . . and it ain’t pretty. It’s always some mid-seventies-third-rate-pimp type guy who does it. The creased jeans and wearing of dress shoes with 'em always just pulls me up short. But I could see why your outfit makes sense though.
And if anyone thinks the re-cuts on The Wonder Years are bad, you should see what Bravo did to Six Feet Under. I know it has to fit a commercial-supplemented format, but damn!
This was my favorite sentence:
“some rich, pompous fuck who’s been made so anhedonic by a lifestyle of affluence and office living that he’s literally incapable of going all the way “cazh” (that’s what they call “casual” in their cuntmouth lingo) and is incapable of “going sneaker” - it’s still gotta be a glossy leather shoe down there! FUCK YOU.”
Not only did I enjoy the phrase “cuntmouth lingo,” but I also have to give props for the use of the word “anhedonic.”
I wear jeans with dressy shoes to work because the dress code doesn’t allow sneakers unless it’s Friday. (It technically doesn’t allow jeans during the week either, but that seems to be ignored around here)
I’d wear shorts and a t-shirt if I had the option.
By the way, count me in for the asscheek flashing mini-skirt look. Asscheeks are for me. I like a slutty look and I’m not ashamed to say it.
Dress shoes are perfectly fine with jeans. Since when the hell has this been a fashion faux pas?
The point of a champagne bottle is that they are very heavy and don’t break easily, thereby delivering a greater impact to the back of the skull of one of the transgressors, as opposed to a regular wine bottle, which will just shatter and probably cut up your hand more than his head.
Loafers are alright with jeans, not dress shoes.
My wife tried to get me to do the jeans/dress shirt/sports jacket/loafers. After I got done laughing at myself, I switched to a pair of khakis, and all was right in the d_odds household.
My wife also has 2 pairs of jeans with creases, and doesn’t comprehend that jeans do not need to be ironed.
I don’t know that I want to see you in a mini-skirt flashing asscheek. Hell, never having seen you, I still get this horrid visual like something drawn by Ralph Bakshi.
[Hushed announcer voice]We’ve secretly replaced VCO3’s regular beverage with liquid methamphetamine. Let’s see if he notices.[/voice]
I know of some Australian wines that should only be used for hand-to-hand combat.
I’m not talking about shiny wear-with-tuxedo black shoes–I mean stuff like, what you said, black loafers. “Office shoes” probably would convey better what I meant by “dress shoes.”
:eek:
:mad:
What the fuck is that even for???
I think I’ve seen that on Live Journal.
I think it’s funny that when someone who is disliked by Dopers makes an over-the-top type of rant, everyone piles on the criticism. But if one of the beloved posters did the same thing everyone would be posting peeves of the same ilk.
I thought the rant was funny. And I don’t even watch YouTube and don’t know anything about Facebook. But I do hate metrosexual wannabes.
Yes, I’ve agreed with this for a long time as a frequent reader (but seldom poster) of the Pit. Major props for pointing this out, as I feel it’s one of those unspoken things that needs to be said. However - I’m not really noticing that in this thread.
I think the rant is pretty good, although I wore dress shoes with jeans today. But they were really worn, bohemian dress shoes - is my hipster cred still intact?
but the sound was AWFUL!
If VCO3 didn’t post a rant over such mindless trivel each week, maybe he could catch a break.
One day the guy’s going to have something really pitworthy, and no one will know what to do.
Heels with long bootcut jeans rock! And is exactly what I wore to work yesterday!
- Youtube. Meh
- Facebook. Meh
- Guys wearing dressy shoes with jeans and “jizzbags” wearing heels with her jeans. Meh.
- The Wonder Years being the greatest television show of all time? Meh.
Better blood pressure, though pharmacology.
