Last year I took some old ass VV pants I had from highschool, one yellow pair and one light blue pair, and took them to my tailor and had them turned into shorts with the same measurements as my WWM ranger shorts. $40 later I had some decent shorts for the summer, so I can't complain.

From the little drama I have read, don't you all fit into the category of lower middle class trying to buy nice things so you appear closer to the upper middle class? Do any of you own atleast 1 home without a mortgage? This fight here is about old and new money, societal class, and how the rest of the world perceives you. If you are broke but want nice clothes, say it. Dont try to be someone you aren't by posting extravagant things you don't have on forums like this one. I'm typing from my iPhone so once I get to my computer I'll edit/fix/add to this post.
thanks harrisonk for blessing us with your presents. cause i didnt give a shit bout your presence. rain s-goods down on me homie! bless us peasants who can't afford vineyard vines oh upper middle class god!

I'm thinking the "modern" trouser, with like waistbands and hems (however primitive), and not, say, wrapped leggings (which usually weren't trousers as we know because of stuff like the separate crotch piece). From what I understand, ankle-length pants were worn by peasants during the French Revolutionary period as a way to mark a difference between them and the aristos, who usually rocked knee-length britches.

I could easily be wrong though, I'm not an expert on this.

I'm not trolling, I'm simply defending my own name/furthing the convocation at hand.

Are you a troll for posting your opinions?

No. This forum is about appreciating design, not class aspiration. If we were as you describe, we would all buy clothes with Gucci and LV logos plastered across them. That kind of clothing is ridiculed here.

Maybe class aspiration is why you buy clothes. Which is why you dress like shit.

I have no idea, but owning a home w/o a mortgage is not indicative of wealth. Plenty of lower middle class people own their homes w/o mortgage.

And plenty of wealthy people maintain debts such as mortages (since they're such low rates of interest) to free up their money for more lucrative investments!

Dude you can furth all the convocations you want, but your actions on the forum so far have been beyond the pale (by which I mean both "out of the boundaries of good taste" and "astonishingly caucasian").

Asking people, apropos of very little, what college they went to, or about their home finances, is trolling. Repeatedly posting your opinions without attempting to engage those who disagree with you is pretty much trolling. Throwing temper tantrums when people do disagree with you is just as bad as trolling.

ok harrisonk i am actually sad that you are not trolling cause if u were, then at least u would be successful. as it stands you are a pot smoking halo playing car fetishizing average freshman at a college in DC. that's not bad, but you gotta be a dick about things calling people on this forum lower middle class and shit? put up or shut up. we know you don't know how to dress yourself, so post your bank statements with the 6+ figures.
