Regarding whnay caring or giving a ****, he could easily have ignored my innocuous comment. Rather, he chose to rebut them in a forceful manner as is his prerogative. Thus saying that he doesnt care a **** is rather difficult for me to believe.

I have never considered a Foo a sartorial master though the Get Foofed thread is good for getting some ideas.

Example of Foo in action (this also proves whnay's point of clothes looking different in action)

That's only because you're usually the host. Consider yourself as having a permanent standing invite to these kinds of thread.

Cheers. Also - any reason you went w/ the Draper fresco over the Minnis?

I have no experience with either for what it's worth.

I don't think R gets Minnis.

Yes he does. My grey flannel is Minnis and one of my jackets is Hardy Worsted Alsport.

This attitude that you have about SF being some sort of playground with "the cool kids" and not so cool kids and you feeling not being part of the "cool crowd" is apparent in many of your posts.

Ideally, such a photograph would be presented by someone from Singapore.

Here's the problem: for those of us who just want to dress well in the classic way, there is a base body of knowledge that must be mastered. This can be done via the internet these days. However, once one has accomplished that, there is not nearly as much to talk about. That's why so many newcomers to bespoke post a lot early on, then taper off. The vast majority of the people who stick around, I wager, aren't in it just to dress well. They want to belong to a community, import/export a lifestyle, get approval, gain status, etc. That's how Styleforum carries on 90% of the time. If it were just people who wanted to dress well, I doubt the forum would be anything worth mentioning.

^^ You forgot, "pissing off a wide swathe of people," in your list.

I wonder how my status is now. BTW, I have ZERO Andy points, if that matters.
