So, since the topic du jour happens to be skinny jeans and there merits (or lack thereof), I figured we should put it to a good old fashion poll. How else are things decided right? Throughout the course of modern history, trends in fashion have ranged from classy classics, to absurd oddities. Current times are no different. The pegged pants of the 80's have become the skinny jeans of the 2000's. Seemingly each decade has it owns foibles and bungled ideas of what was 'good fashion sense.' And now, it is up to all of you to decide which were the worst! Here are your options; A: Bell Bottoms Made famous in the 60's and the pot smoking Bay Area hippies, the bell bottom was adopted, cleaned up, and polyestered by coked up disco dancers. While the prinicples remained the same, the material and amount of tightness/stretchiness involved became smaller and smaller until, eventually, the vanished into obscurity popping up only on rare occasions of burned out Studio 54ers and the poor kids who got their parents hand me down wardrobes. B. Corduroy Shorts While never the era defining fashion piece that the bell bottoms were, these often, brilliantly colored short pants were made famous, primarily by my father who insited on not only, wearing these day in and day out, but doing so without the benefit of underwear underneath. Traditionally worn with a mustache and a baseball hat that dawns a beer logo, the folks that put these on back in the 80's have never taken them off. Mainly because their beer guts won't allow it. C: Skinny Jeans The subject of much discourse here in this very forum, the skinny jean has become one big fat pair of problems for many posters who stad on either side of the pant legs. Some call them chick magents, while other maintain that only chicks would wear such a thing. One side said is shows off your package, the other says is shows you have no package. The debate is probably likely only to end once Obama addresses the pressing topic during his inauguration speech next week. Until then, the debate rages on. D. Capes Once thought of as superhero-y and grand, has no fallen to scorn, skepticism and ridicule in modern soceity. People who wear capes are no longer reverred, openly mocked and typically sent to looney bins throughout the country. Quite frankly, I am befuddled as to why... Happy choosing
I'd much rather pimp out the OP shorts or a cape than the skinny pants or Bell Bottoms. Those 2 are basically the same, until you get down to past the knee range of the pants. Both styles of those pants are too nut huggerish for me to even consider trying on. (not to mention I think they make a person look like a total tool)
Dude, you're ****ing skinny, but you aren't really wearing the type of jeans that Sam is referring to. Its pretty obvious that the jeans you are wearing are basically a "relaxed fit" on you. Now these examples are really what Skinny Jeans is all about IMO:
can someone PLEASE photoshop this picture?!?!? lmfao!!!!! there are some great ideas brewing....but i only have paint....
1. Nothing wrong with updated bell bottoms, called boot cut or flared leg. They can show off a woman's curves nicley. 2. I don't understand the point of cordory shorts. I just don't get it. 3. Skinny jeans with a cut pair of knee high boots tucked into them, very sexy. You guys here know what I mean. 4. Capes, can be appropriated, the pashmina types, not the superhero types. So if I had to choose from this list, I'd go for the shorts. But off the top of my head, I can think of many bigger fashion faux pas. 1. VPL visable pantie lines. Hello! Thats why thongs and boy shorts were invented! 2. The muffin top. You know the folds of flesh hanging over a pair of low rider jeans. Buy the right size ladies! 3. Excessive animal print. Need I say more?
Man, wearing jeans like that, I would say you are a TOTALLY different type of packer all together..... not that there's anything wrong with that. j/k Travis.
Yeah, Aqua, I don't think the jeans you wear are what we're talking about. Those aren't nearly as tight as what a lot of people find weird on men. Is this pic from the Dolphin Stadium Pro Shop? That's a cool set-up. Are those jerseys around you available for purchase?
See, now you're catching on! Don't take any of this stuff seriously. It's the lounge, we all make fun of each other. We once called PMZQ straight, but he didn't care, he just rolled with the punches... And for the record, the pants you are wearing look more like a loose fit, tapered leg kind of deal. It would be hard for me to classify those as "skinny jeans." When I refer to skinny jeans, I mean the skin tight, horrid looking pants that a lot of teenagers (including my 16 year old sister) are wearing. I am insulted. I thought, given the current hot topic about skinny jeans, that this thread was genius and inevitable. Quite frankly, I am ashamed that it took so long to be thunk up. And do perscription drugs count as being on drugs? Cuz if so, then chalk it up to both boredom and drugs.
oh christ... No! Pick on the 30 year old sister instead. That would be hilarious because, I am pretty sure she is mostly responsible for the crazy person you see before you today. One potshot at her and she will most likely hunt you down and murder you. The little sis is too nice. I may have to welcome her to the real world in a year or two to toughen her up. She is still all giggly from being named homecoming princess and playign with kittens or whatever it is teenage girls do.
No really stop the boat... WTF, you sick bastard!?!?!?!?!?!?! ...unless she's hot....no wait that's sick! ...less sick, then if she was ugly...BUT STILL SICK!
like you should talk....you live next to a playboy bunny....where the hell is your "peeper thread" ?!?!??!
**** I remember having those shorts when I was a wee lad, I dont know why. Did you really just ask that? really?
Ohhhhh.... That was YOU pretending to be Ronnie.... I thought it actually WAS Ronnie... OT: Does anybody remember me commenting at the old site about how big Ronnies Caboose was......... Yeah me neither
