To post pictures of what you're wearing, get feedback on it, and to get ideas from other successful posters. I wish people gave more constructive feedback and opinions, actually, there's not enough of that.

The OP asked what people who read this forum think of WAYWT. I read this forum and that's honestly what I think. Not trying to start **** but the us vs. them mentality that you seem to have in a lot of posts (this one included - some get it and some don't) is what I tend to dislike about WAYWT and the forum as a whole.

You can talk when you post your own fit for us to judge.

What I meant was that your pov wasn't new or original but that it had been expressed by others repeatedly. The whole idea was we had gone over this before, every single possible conceivable angle.

On planet earth? What other group can you just walk into the middle of, start complaining about how they do things without getting to know anyone, or offering anything besides your complaints, and be taken seriously? I'm just wondering... because I hear this a lot and it confuses me.

^ Sarcasm? You're again kind of proving my point. I don't come here to have people determine what my opinions are worth based on what my clothes look like on me. I come here to see what others are into and see what works for me and what doesn't. Part of that is trying to not just lurk but also share my opinions when I think they might be of value to someone. That's all any of my posts so far in this thread have tried to be and yet you still show the same mentality that people have said can bother them.

And you're right I don't post fit pics - I don't feel like there's a good reason for me to do so at this point. Isn't that what this thread is trying to address in a way?

EDIT: thread is moving fast that was for JD

It's like people don't say **** when someone like Get Smart or Superbobo post something that everyone knows is awful simply because they don't want to be harrassed by other members. Or if it's a next-level poster like Chris. and you say you don't like it then it's because you "don't get the aesthetic." Oh sorry, I thought we were playing the "What People Always Say When The Topic of 'What's Your Opinion of WAYWN' Comes Around Every Few Months" game. Who wants dibs on next?

Understood sorry if that came off dick-ish. I understand what you're saying I just saw this as a chance for me personally to chime in for once so I took it.

I don't think I've ever seen Jason wear something that didn't look good. Maybe I just missed it. Or maybe that **** is just next level and I don't get it.

^ Haha wish you would have given me a heads up or something would have saved us all some time and possibly sleep.
