I feel sorry for you.


Haha, Thats what makes me chuckle about you sometimes, you so black and white about everything, if its not your opinion you do not appreciate it at all. Reminds me of the bespoke/expensive RTW thread. I can certainly understand both sides of the coin, where you feel that if someone doesnt see it one way, they're an idiot.

Who brought the hate in?

First one , you probably mean briefs; in that case, they are the only underwear that actually makes sense.

I don't get the function of boxers unless they are issued to you by the military , your church or prison , then...

Second one, your opinion of Etro is based on Ebay or thrift shops. Take time when you are in NYC to look at what Etro makes . They have exceptional pieces in very agreeable colors.

I don't hate Kabbaz, I just hate everything he stands for. Okay, maybe I do hate Kabbaz a little. Maybe a lot.

We're talking about clothes, not race or religion: a little hate is the cornerstone of taste. It stands to reason that if I liked something, barring the issue of expense, I would adopt it. With the exception of a few things, what I haven't adopted, I haven't adopted because I don't want to.

Also, just because I don't like something, it doesn't mean I begrudge others for liking it. I may even like something done by someone else that I would never want to do myself.

Ever play Final Fantasy IV (Final Fantasy II to people who only played the early 90's American version)? He's like Zeromus.

No it doesn't.

Well, it may for you, but not for the rest of us. I see looks on SF all the time that I like, but am not tempted to imitate or emulate.

Isn't that just another way of saying "I hate it for me"?

I feel no hate for these particular things.

I do hate certain items of clothing, but I hate them on everyone.

Actually, even that is not true. There are some people I consider so riduculous and contemptible, that I am rather glad that they dress like the fools they are. The ouside should match the inside, in a just world.

It's a way of saying "It's not right for me or that would not work for me" That covers a multitude of reasons.
