anarchist, anti-establishment, go against the grain types are the biggest conformist group of all.....
notice me I'm different....let me give the opposite opinion to be different....I am so cool because everything you say i can act like a non-conformist snob and ALWAYS take the oposing side
if you are such a non-conformist why do you post on a message board

That's funny because of the irony behind it
At a "Goth" club a few months back, standing on the balcony drinking watching the going's on below on the dance floor (and elsewhere - so what I'm a social voyeur) and thinking to myself
All these Goth's striving for non conformity have become conformist
The all black outfits, the disaffected attitude, the bizarre/unusual dances, Hot Topic clothes, the list goes on
I found it quite amusing - but then so are a few glasses of Dewar's
and yes I go out of my way to be "colorful" when "gothing" (kind of like slumming so to speak)

Clearly Andrew and I should never be allowed to go shopping together...I do the exact same thing!
Only current trend that really irks me is the whole baggy pants with the underwear showing thing on the guys. Their dads need to smack 'em on the back of the head and tell 'em "pull your damned pants up boy you look like a moron".
Todays teens aren't being smacked upside the head near enough... Just stop by GFY if you dont believe it.

Betcha ten to one most of 'em weren't smacked on the ass pre-teen, either.
"Aw look, he's expressing his individuality, don't say anything or you'll hurt his precious self-esteem"
Gimme a break. *schmack* Go put some decent clothes on.

i miss the good baggy jeans of the mid 90s cuz i hate these tight nut hugger jeans every company seems to be making these days. I like my jeans with big pockets and extra room for my nut sack
I personally love the faded look, and have way before it became the "in" thing. Large watches, no way!
Hate hate hate the baggy look where the guy is having to pull up their pants with ever step. Why not avoid having to do this by just buying the right size? My son buys his jeans at LEAST 2 sizes too big. It kills me!
Hate hate hate the big hole in the ear thing. Why in the hell do you want to see through someone's earlobe? It makes me want to throw up whenever I see it.
Hate hate hate the baggy look coupled with the large earlobe! I say there should be a law that limits your "in" fashion choice to 1!
I grew up in a VERY strict household where my mother was always worried about what people would say about HER in reference to what we wore or did. As a result, we weren't allowed to wear T-shirts or "dungarees" outside the house and I wasn't allowed to wear pants to school. My school also had a strict dress code - just not as strict as my mother - no sneakers OR white socks for the boys, no opened back or opened toed shoes for the girls, etc. And needless to say, G_d WILL strike you down if you wear white after Labor Day or before Easter!
It must have been one of the ONLY things I didn't rebel against as I still dress conservatively. I don't think I've ever worn a t-shirt outside the house, lol!
But I do get a special kick out of the thought of my son visiting with her when he's wearing a t-shirt as I know she's twitching and convulsing inside. :P
So for those who wouldn't wear a large-faced watch. Is this because you have become accustomed to smaller faced watches as the norm and the larger faces are too extreme compared to your view of what constitutes a "normal" watch?

They just look big and goofy.
Plus the bigger they are, the more they get in the way. Usually heavier, too... you're more aware that it's there and it bugs you more.

I'm sure plenty of guys would be willing to let you know!! :P
Originally posted by VooMan@Jan 29 2004, 05:22 PM What? Nobody else hates the four button suits? hahaha
I am at heart basically a jeans and t-shirt kinda guy but when I did work and had to wear a suit I loved shopping for them and my ties (animal ties being most prevelant) Always had compliments on my animal ties!! I would almost never wear dress shoes with my suits either. 90% of the time I would wear them with cowboy boots.
One of the biggest mistakes in suit buying I ever made was an all silk suit. It looked quite good and I got a ton of compliments on it but it just wasn't me!! Never felt comfortable in it. <_< Women loved it and guys hated it. One of the few times I gave in and kept wearing something I didn't really like or feel comfortable wearing!! :P

Same reason I dont wear clown-shoes.
and its not because society says I shouldnt

Remember back in the 80's when the faded jeans look was really in and people were taking them out back and shooting them with shotguns, then selling the resulting multi-holed mess for hundreds of dollars?
Crazy shit.
I *did* buy a faded jean jacket back then, took it to Ocean City and had the grim reaper airbrushed on the back. Wore that thing out so bad the cuffs nearly fell off.

Then why dont you smack him on the back of the head and tell him to buy some pants that fit and keep 'em pulled up.
I am one of the few men I know who will wear pocket watches
Basically because I fuck up writs watches
and while I don't enjoy ink on women lower back tattoos can be very sexy depending

I have a strong dislike for logo'd merchandise of almost any type (with the exception of sports teams). I can understand being a fan of the Tuscaloosa Tinkerbells in the Cow Country Hockey League - when you need to prove where you buy your shit in order to obtain some sort of status, you have a pretty pathetic life, IMHO.
Overall, I'm too damned old for fashion - people my age tend to look silly at best when trying to dress according to QG/Vogue. The frustrating part about that is, of course, it would be so easy - after all, I probably have some of it in the closet.

I'm not a big fan of sports team merchandise - though I do have a Canes shirt I jog in occasionally.
"Fashion" I'm not that fond of (with a few exceptions):
baseball caps
polo shirts
sneakers (haven't worn them for at least a decade)
speedo's
gold jewelry
porn conference t-shirts
Things I don't currently have myself but think look good on other people:
Tattoos
Piercings
Philosophically opposed to:
People that wear clothing that is way too tight for their body. If you're overweight, wear baggy clothing.
Anything from the 80's coming back. 70's retro was ok but 80's retro should be killed dead in its tracks.
Oh, yeah:
Great rule of thumb :: If you wore it the first time. don't wear it when it comes back.

I can't say there's anything i can't stand to look at really. Other than 12 year olds dressing like hookers. Some parents really need to be sterilized.
The faded tight fit jeans and retro look seems to be the big thing at the moment, at least here in Australia. And while i don't mind what it actually looks like, i can't help but laugh at what people pay for it. I have a couple of friends that have spent several hundreds of dollars on a single pair of jeans. One of them is very self concious. He actually tries to give me shit for buying a no-name brand 30 dollar pair of jeans. Nothing like pulling out the 200 dollar difference from my wallet and pointing out that he's still in debt.
And "designer" clothing. Who the fuck pays 50 dollars for a plain white t-shirt, 'cause it has a lable sticking out along the stitch? Shallow and insecure individuals. They're all made in the same shitty Chinese sweatshop.
The way i see if, if anyone has a lower opinion of me for not feeling the need to impress people with the price of my clothes, then i probably don't want to talk to them anyways. And i don't think less of my friends that do try to keep up with all the trends. I just keep quiet when they have their fashion discussions.
