I'm getting more into the 4x2 look and have a couple more in the works. I don't usually roll the lapel though.

Oh, I always wear a boater, carry a cane and wear spectators no matter what else I am wearing.

I can't believe that no one has pointed out this bit of fiction yet.

The Depression also saw an attempted invasion of Manhattan by the Daleks, resulting in the first human-Dalek hybrid:

Perhaps this was also the genesis of RJmanbearpig.







(As no one wanted to discuss Romulan tailoring, I thought this might get more traction.)

We must have sympathy. In those days, there were no online message boards from which to learn the proper way to dress. But, setting that aside, do you think the DB works with his build/facial tentacles?

Also, perhaps this is a relation of our new arrival?

I think it's the sartorial inquisition.

Maybe this is the cardboard box he's living out of.
