We look to Los Angeles for the language we use.

London is dead, London is dead, London is dead, London is dead, London is dead.

I'm all for national pride and all, but you'll never hear me on these forums advocating for Vietnamese tailors. My brother went to one and came back with arms that bend backwards. I am not joking. There's a huge bulge at the front of his elbows. And the funny part is I tell him it looks amazing. I actually don't like my free-loading brother who went to Vietnam on my parents' dime.

Only Neapolitan tailoring gives the maximum amount of Napleage (tm) that men need today.
