Skinny jeans are fruity? Only if they are skinnier than the wearer...

Farm boys around here pop their airtex collars, for the fairly practical reason of not getting badly sunburnt. Leave it on the farm I say...

Maybe the office Christmas party? Still fruity though.

Those slippers (whatever they are called) binge was wearing in his last photo are definitely too fruity for me.

I must have rewound that 40 times.


This reminds me of that thread from a year or so ago - the photos of the kids at the prom in Brooklyn or Queens where some of them had those ghastly tans.

Ahaah! Coelacanthus has been extinct these past trillions of years, Arty ol' sport. Tis Gouldishly scientific, not subject to debate, fact, predated ambiogenesis, eh what! Your image is obviously the devilishly clever contrivance, no doubt making extensive use of velcro and evolutionary fantasy grammar school artistry, of the inscrutable Fhotodoktor Foo, Esquire, as he's conspicuously evident in yon neoprene raiment noir. Pull the wool over I.'s eyes? Nae laddie.

+1. But I actually saw a pair of canvas+leather specs in a shopwindow the other day, that looked very nice. But then I thought that I'd better not spend EUR350 on a pair of shoes that I was not sure of being able to do. One thing is seeing them in the shopwindow. Another thing is actually doing them.
