It's more like 11 year olds.

Teger wouldn't be teger if he didn't frequently come out of left field to spew childish, witless insults while never contributing anything of substance. Yet, for whatever reason, we're supposed to treat him like an adult. I don't know which Senior Member came up with that rule, but it smacks of Obama-esque liberalism.

Hence the amateur hour errors, the belligerence in the face of criticism, and the extreme rancoeur evinced towards wealth and class.

Are you saying Moo is an FNB-Kabbaz hybrid, but with much lower quality goods?

I wish I knew these people, but I think this forum drama was before my time so the allusion is lost on me. To Moo's credit, his personality is so flamboyantly over-the-top that I am addicted to his every post, whereas FNB's recent writings are just tedium after tedium.

I think this sums up my view of the Moo:

In the South Seas there is a cargo cult of people. During the war they saw
airplanes land with lots of good materials, and they want the same
thing to happen now. So they've arranged to imitate things like
runways, to put fires along the sides of the runways, to make a
wooden hut for a man to sit in, with two wooden pieces on his head
like headphones and bars of bamboo sticking out like antennas--he's
the controller--and they wait for the airplanes to land. They're
doing everything right. The form is perfect. It looks exactly the
way it looked before. But it doesn't work. No airplanes land. So
I call these things cargo cult science, because they follow all the
apparent precepts and forms of scientific investigation, but
they're missing something essential, because the planes don't land.

Apt characterization by referencing The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins.

When did "Men's Clothing" (for ****'s sake!) turn into a sandbox for Hypebeast rejects?


Sigged.
