Might help if you knew what a bootcut was before you were offended.

Yeah, those comment surprised me too. Negative voluntary response bias applies of course. I love how the one guy talks about how Real Iconoclasts don't care about fashion; the only person I can think of who that actually applies to is Hunter S. Thompson. Does he think Sid Vicious's hair just naturally stood up like that?

This stupid story influenced me to change the radio station on the way home... it had been a day of work, of good, honest work (I didn't lie), & then a couple of guys start talking about fashion. I listened to the Atlanta progressive-news station instead; they were discussing the Obama tax cuts, the influence of Wall St firm political contributions... it was a great listen. I really enjoyed the piece on the other news station.
Looks like someone wears bootcut jeans...

Thanks guys , appreciate the support. The interview was longer than what they put on air but I definitely didn't want to offend anyone with the 'bootcut jeans' comment it was something I said with high levels of sarcasm as you can see I laughed afterwards.

all in all , was a pleasure to be on there with Billy Reid!
