Here's a lovely image for you

Man gets on the bus today. He is wearing a baby blue running suit type thing made of velvet. Baby blue velvet. I'm not making that up. It's about two sized too big, as per the preferred 'fashion' amongst the gangsta class of society. As he gets on the bus, his velvet pants, already sagging, totally drop another good three inches. Revealing to all the way too tight thermal underwear beneath. I know it's way too tight because very little was left to the imagination.

If I'd been able to locate my pocket knife, my eyes would have received an Oedipus treatment.

What I want to know is this: If you are trying to convey to the world that you are one badass motherfucker, why in the name of heaven do you wear thermal undewear that is too small and baby blue velvet that is too big? In seventy degree weather, at that.

Better question: who the fuck takes that shit seriously?

The world, it confuses me.

Other people in baby-blue velvet track suits with too-tight underwear?

Heh. Point. I want to knock their heads together and teach them how to dress, as clearly their mother did not.

This is the best part of this post:

the gangsta class of society

LOL I weep.

And I don't know since some of the shit that my kids get themselves into is pretty amazing. I just wear black because it's easy and it never goes out of fashion.

O_o modern fashion makes no sense to me

The whole puffy underwear sticking out of or quite evident under the shirt while the pants are sliding down an ass look so ridiculous, one is embarrassed for them. It makes them look fat assed and not in a good way. Hanging on the hips is one thing, sliding off the ass in totally another.

Right...I thought they totally made up that look for movie stereotyping from seventies. Did he have a pimp cane? Well, on a totally unrelated note about your previous post, i sympathize. Our system has been crashing every single time we get so much as a tiny aftershock. The damned earthquake wasn't even that big....

I guess Iowa just isn't built for earthquake.

You know, that happened to me once - the guy was wearing a baby blue sweat suit, like yours, with his pants at his knees almost. I was on the metro and he jogged on (miraculously not tripping) before he realized it wasn't his trains. Apparently he thought it'd be a good idea to stick his arm in between the closing doors.

Nevertheless, the metro train operator eventually yelled at him over the intercom.

CHAV!!!

We have that a lot in London (we call them a chav or chavs) but a little WORSE: the velvet-imitation and butt-crack display is accompanied here with sneakers and caps with the tags still attached, three (fake) blink yellow gold necklaces, two heavy rings and both ears pierced (is he a switcher, I always wonder...)

I can't help my grimaces sometimes. You have no idea how many times I've been gruffly asked, "Wots yore prob'lem?!"

Where I live, no one wears baby blue velvet except for girls. But as someone once told me:

They wear their pants at half-mast to respect their brethen fallen in the gang wars.

Only they said it funnier and I'm too tired to find the exact quote.
