**** I hope the ultra tight fit never comes back on for men.  So tired of seeing tight jeans, weird flannels, and common projects.


You must live on the internet then, because I've seen CPs once or twice in my life in the wild.

Agreed, I haven't. Remember, not because everyone here might have something, means everyone has it. Heck, not even everyone here has CPs.

Last week the sale went live to Found. Members in USA. I read sale was supposed to go live to public today. Guess that wasn't true.


I'm a founding member, but have only have three orders to my name, all sale items, in the last year. Would they "revoke" my founding member status for something like this? Hah. I can't see any sale stuff.

It is a comment meant to imply that people are being ridiculous by continually asking about a Mr Porter sale, written in a sarcastic tone. It rests somewhere in between "chill out, bro" and "STFU WITH THE PORTER SALE ALREADY!!" along the spectrum of possible comments. While one might recall the lesson our dear mothers might have imparted on us (that is, "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all"), one might be forced to read one hundred more MR PORTER sale comments today, if it is left alone. Truly, the implication of my making such a response is only to point out the underlying Zen philosophy of if you do not see it, then it does not exist. So, really, I am doing them a favor by helping calm their nerves and be more at peace with the world.

The more ridiculous aspect is how many non founders know how the founders sale works.

Yes, it's annoying to see questions asked 100 times over. However, rather than cluster the thread during SALES SEASON, why not just ignore the posts?

So, rather than having 1 post per page asking about porter, we now have 1 post asking about porter sales, and 10 posts ridiculing the person posting it.

Again, rather than flood the thread with absolute useless ****, just ignore the post, and the thread will be much cleaner.

And soon to be 100 posts criticizing the 10 posts ridiculing the one post asking about it. It is a given that the internet grows exponentially each day.:teach:
