Is being insulted on FNB the sign of sartorial grandeur?

There is a very interesting thread on FNB dedicated to slagging off people from other men clothing forums.

The display of bile and internet bravado is always entertaining and SF being an integral part of this comedy dell'arte, I would advise you reading some quite mentally disturbing rants on the devil's island...

Some ops over there are very interesting and offer balanced views but the sociopathic ones are the most interesting especially the ones posting here under different usernames...

They LOVE me over there!!!

What bothers me more than anything is that I have no frame of reference. I have a feeling most of these guys couldn't put together a fit better than the ones they harp on so mercilessly....but they don't have a WAYWRN over there. I guess there is a reason for that.

It is interesting to see some of the anger behind some threads and comments...

I need my DSM V when reading some of the rants...

Real stalker /serial killer material ..

I'm even more amused by the ones posting here under a different pseudo and ranting over there.

I always admire intellectual courage and honesty...

Who has dual personalities?? You can PM me if you want. I know Yachtie is over there, but he is Yachtie there as well.

Just Google Film Noir Buff. Go to The Wardrobe and check the "When bespoken and fabric dreams go wrong," or something like that. Take your time and enjoy. They like us SFers the best, with an occasional AAAC or LL entry.

When I read the title of the thread, I thought to myself this has to be about Mike.

Honestly, who cares

And no, it is not a sign of any sort of achievement either, sartorial or otherwise.

^^this ...it does put things in perspective, though. But I agree with MBreinin, it all becomes kind of hollow without actual frames of reference.

Jesus Christ those are some mean dudes over there.

First three pages I randomly clicked on were more demeaning than just about any cristicism here. Wow.
