Not really angry.

I think it is a rite of passage to wear silly clothing, and have silly haircuts and like horrible music.

However as a 40 something it is now my role to shake my head and chuckle at today's version of myself 20+ years ago...

Of course all those bad Robert Smith haircuts and assorted fashion disaster outfits I wore in the late eighties really did wonders for the time spent with drama girls and goth cuties in various states of undress (ahh the memories), so yeah I get the motivation.

So have at it hipsters, the clock is ticking...

I wear boy scout issued pants and cargo pants because omg they are comfortable as hell!
The main reason why i don't wear jeans is because they are unfreaking comfortable. I perfer clothing that is comfortable and still makes me look good, but doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

I like cargo pants. And loose pants in general, if they're jeans. As mentioned ,jean material is uncomfortable...

Besides, the punk-goth look is pretty nice sometimes, though I like my hair too much to go into the styling they do.

The people in the past who convinced themselves to do unspeakable things were no less human than you or I. They made their decisions; the only thing that prevents history from repeating itself is making different ones.

And its my role as a mid-20's intellectual to shake my head at everyone in order to remind them that absurdity transcends all boundaries, even mine.

In all honesty i look like a guy that belongs on a Freerunning team now rofl.

Really a goth look?

Guess someones likes is not something i will like.

I like the normal look of "I belong back in australia" look.
Or the "I am actually a republican disguised as a hippy." I.e. my entire town.

Jeans are never comfortable compared to BSA pants and cargo pants.

Dogma is correct.


Oh, and it's 'denim', not fething 'jean material'... That's like calling chicken 'nugget-material'.


Actually, I quite like that.

Yeah, there are very few jeans that I've bought that I would describe as uncomfy.

No I'm not. I don't like the material. Even soft jeans aren't very good against the skin compared to cotton or silk.

Wish you Americans would use the word, "trousers"!
When you start talking about loose pants I fear your knicks are about to end up around your ankles!

I wish you brits would use the term Pantaloons.

Because hearing tha word said in a British accent is de-pantsifyingly awesome.

Good denim is mostly cotton.

Cotton is horrible once it gets wet it stays wet for a very long time. Cotton kills on Camping trips.

Not many people who go camping are concerned with style, and those who are concerned with style are not concerned with camping; the latter go glamping.

Right, I don't go camping. I get enough nature driving to work/school.

Not a nature person. I like cities.

Dude, I'm not leaving the house wearing my silk pantaloons. They're just for me.

They'd probably struggle with the 'L' in 'pantaloon', to be fair!

Nah, but I'm not Mancunian, in any case. I'm from Teeside.
