1. this is an interpretation. don't pull a bengal-stripe here... it takes more than this kasperl to make me not liking somebody.

useless, hmmh, yes and no. imo it's pretty much clueless. he's a puppet on a string for the goon members and he's playing his role very well. i don't get behind his intention doing this. nvm.

and yes, despite the cuffs, which i don't really like on anybody, i don't find his clothes a good fit, period.

just sayin...

2. correct

My point about its popularity in this thread was that it shows how stylistic quirks can catch on like wildfire when critique and a mind toward objectivity are discouraged.

The cuteness of the flower is the exact reason I bought one, and the exact reason why I've never worn it.

I don't see why supposed uniqueness is a plus--it's really neither here nor there. It would be at least equally unique if I wore a trashcan lid as a hat. Yes, real flowers have been worn on lapels for a long time. This is not a real flower, nor could it ever be passable for one. I never liked the random stuff Neo put in his lapels either. In both cases, the breaking from tradition only distracts and disrupts the underlying outfit.

People also have very different situations in which they dress, and have very different personalities (which sometimes does, and sometimes doesn't translate to the forum). All of these things are very subjective reasons for dressing the way we all do.
Says who? If you seriously believe style is purely subjective, then it makes little sense that you'd spend time on this forum. After all, if style is only a matter of what one personally feels about it, you'd be just as satisfied observing the random people you see during the day. Anyway, no matter what you want to believe, you can surely admit the possibility that there is some objectivity involved in style. Haven't you ever thought a persons's style improved? I bet you can name at least one forum member, maybe yourself, whose style has developed in a positive way over time. I don't need to tell you that improvement isn't possible unless there is some measure by which one can improve. The point of the 'Get Foofed' thread is to show objective ways in which outfits can be improved. Sometimes I make more subjective calls that can be disputed, but in many cases I leave the outfit as is, only fixing technical or structural issues. I think the subjects simply look better as a result most of the time, and at no cost to their personality or individuality. For example, I would redo the angle and approach at which your quarters open. I suppose you did not ask your tailor to do them the way he did--yet there they are, shaped as if the jacket was originally cut to have more closed quarters.

That's right. I believe there is a language to learn, with a vocabulary, syntax, grammar, etc., that needs to be mastered.

Then we are of similar minds. I don't think learning from others and adopting their practices is wrong. In fact, it should be encouraged. However, in an environment where only praise is welcome, and nobody believes anything is right or wrong, better or worse, people can't learn and won't adopt practices efficiently. Everything will stick, including the junk.

It's rich for a guy who posts a picture of himself in shorts and a sweaty t-shirt doing volunteer work to call me self-centered. That said, perhaps you will indulge my stupidity: what style, exactly, are you expressing? Are we supposed to be inspired by the way you rolled down your tube socks? Either you wanted to show your outfit or you wanted everyone to know how civic-minded you are. In either case, I can fathom of nothing worth posting in this thread.

This is so much better than the Foof one!

Damn you guys are really feeling verbal. Im so lost on any sort of conversation lately.

But yes, my shoes are Brunello Cucinelli.

Im going to need a bookmark for this thread, apparantly... whew.

TOTALLY off topic, but what does "HOF:" mean in this and other thread titles?

I don't understand some people here getting paranoid with the style of others. Never forget that style is personal. Some people may enjoy a certain look, some will not. STFU.
This thread is really losing it's charisma.
