This was only pretentious at first. Now it's an in-joke. Which, come to think of it, are also way overrated on Style Forum.

That second sentence was almost Vaclav, like. Well done.

And that's Vaclav, not Uaclau.

Thinking you're a better man than your fellow man because you can afford to shop at exclusive boutiques. You're not. You're just another douche in an expensive suit and handgrade shoes.


I take serious offense to this post, it's tone, and the general implication that I am a douche in an expensive suit and handgrade shoes for the trivial reasons cited. I am a douche in an expensive suit and handgrade shoes for far more serious reasons. What the fvck?

The responses are more intriguing than the original post. It makes me wonder: Does the internet provide an outlet for people to ignore the emotional needs of others and act quite unlike themselves in a virtually anonymous environment or is this our natural state and we feel compelled to act civilized when being judged by others.

In either event I am backing away slowly from the train wreck.

Points for using this word correctly in a sentence.

They can't, which is why it makes perfect sense to buy multiples.

I find the majority of them shapeless and boring. I do like Mafoofan's collection and the Indy boot, but otherwise, they don't do anything for me. Ditto AE.
