If it costs more than dinner for two at Wendy's, then it's too expensive.
Or more than a "LG Water" at this place

constant struggle · Nov 3, 2009

I think I've officially cracked.

I'm gonna start pairing the cheapest **** possible with the most expensive stuff I own. I need a warm hat for winter, so I am going to go buy the cheapest itchy-ass wool watch cap from the surplus store. I don't even care if I scratch my head off while wearing it. I'm not spending any more money on clothes anymore. If it costs more than dinner for two at Wendy's, then it's too expensive.

your reasoning/motivation?

1. I've spent a lot of money on clothes over the past year.
2. I'm poor.
3. I'm tired of looking for that next amazing thing.
4. I have enough clothes that I truly like to wear.

If I can convince myself that I'm just fine with what I already have, I think I'll be happier in the long run. I'm thinking of starting a 6-month No Purchase Club.

Oh, and:
5. I spend way too much time on SF. I need to get the hell off SF and find myself a girlfriend.

I figured you had just received your bandanna laundry bill and were FREAKING OUT.

I hear you on the 6-mth no purchase club. Unfortunately, I have no self control.

+1 on 6mo. story of my life

zissou, to comfort you, the us gov wool watch caps are not scratchy.

zissou · Nov 3, 2009

^That is comforting, Bobo. Thank you. I am going to go fork out $6 for one on Friday.

Are you kidding me? I hand wash those babies.

Hah. Well, I sure get a lot more smiles around town when she's with me

Sadly, I live in a place where there are very few unmarried women in their thirties. As a result, the ones who aren't are either (1) grad students who are only going to be here for a couple years, or (2) mildly insane.

Wouldn't it be great if there was some kind of prize for whoever sticks it out in the 6mo NP Club, like a pair of jeans? It would be hard to verify, though.

they are that way everywhere, it is simply a matter of time until they reveal the scope of their insanity to you.

I know how every woman who is older is like "OMFG no decent guys!!" I actually think feel worse for the subset of guys that aren't wack jobs, it's probably harder for them

not really... RL rugby is definitely lower in quality than even PRL, but barker black is better than most fashion shoes ive seen
Barker black is marsupialed. Am yet to see there details look better then classic styling, without being pompous and silly. "MY PENNY LOAFERS HAVE A CROWN SHAPED WINDOW BECAUSE IM INTERNET ROYALTY"

have you seen them in person? its really discreet and cute....

Gravitas · Nov 3, 2009

+1. Barker Black's detailing is rather subtle and unless i'm mistaken, you can get shoes without the skull broguing. I see it as just being a fun detail (y so srs?).

On a related note, on Sunday's "Three Rivers" the one doctor gets called out for being pampered as is evidenced by the fact that he is wearing Barker Blacks.
