The Official-ish DC Thread

You're just salty DWW handed you your ass in that thread.

He and I squabble all the time it seems.

I suspect it's probably great, however, I cannot get into e-reading. I think I only finish about 25% of the books I start on kindle...but real books almost always get read, unless they suck.

I like reading on my iPad when wifey falls asleep as I can turn the lights out and still read. Great for travel as well. Apart from that I also greatly prefer real books.

I wasn't aware of this before but now it looks like I won't be getting any work done this afternoon...

Let's Talk About Bookcore

https://www.francemusique.fr/emissions/alain-badiou-philosophe-et-melomane/retour-a-bayreuth-82784 I don't have enough French for that show to make sense but the pull quote gets me the gist, I think. Actually, I don't know much about Wagner, I just know the book I've ordered makes the case...

The food at Kramers is much better than you would expect it to be. It's become a go-to place to grab a bite to eat for me and my friend after we visit the Phillips Collection.

Yeah, I really like their chow and bar. When my son was at American U we used to meet there all the time. I also like to stop at the end of long bike rides and eat outside.

He seems to have a hard time understanding (or dealing with) the idea that not everyone will agree with him 100% of the time.

He's a doofus who needs to be right.

Every time we argue I get supportive DMs from the many DWW-haters out there. Kind of funny. I'm not a hater but can't pass up commenting on perceived BS.

We can replace styleforum with the work environment as well. I just want my sanity!

Yep, complete with the various cliques..... the conversation in that thread to get it moved from CM to SW&D was revealing, and ridiculous at the same time.

Maybe we should form a gang? The DC Sharks complete with (designer, of course) monogrammed leather jackets? I refuse to roll up my jeans, though.

And, how many times is he going to give a handy to the Instagram guy out of SFO, who is both an electrician and dresses up? I mean, sure he dresses well, but some of his stuff is just weird. No need to praise every outfit he wears all the time.

Oooof my coworkers think I'm weird for dressing up all the time. I would say anyone following stylefo rules on dress are the odd ones in modern day society.

He and Peter are apparently friends and hang out a lot. I like a lot of what Peter wears but not all of it. Neat to see him featured by Canali now!

We all have to wear CM at work but I'm known as the office dandy because I don't wear Jos A. Bank and actually put some thought into dressing.
