WTF? Did you actually look at this guy, or did you just $hit on him 'cause he's big? Those pants are flat front, they fit his hips, there's no excess fabric in the crotch, and his belt is not loose. The tie is the right length, the shirt collar fits, and the collar is a decent proportion to his face.Originally Posted by Doxe
Is he big? Yes. Is he dressed poorly? No. I think he looks better than most of the bigger sized guys out there. His clothes fit him and they fit him well.
+1. Tie knot even has a dimple (sort of).

+1. Why is this creepy?Originally Posted by onix
The outfit's not bad, but it's the serial-killer stare that makes it creepy.

+10,000 This photo should be removed from the thread altogether. Nothing creepy about it at all. The only things I would alter on the young mans outfit would be to add a wider belt and a dark jacket, which I am sure he already owns. To post this young man's photo for the purpose of disrespecting him (and without his knowledge or permission) was mean-spirited and completely un-called for violation of decency, dignity and common sense. Edit- Please do not respond to this (my) posting. Instead, continue reading following posts for clarification on next page. Thank you all.

Doxe, to post this young man's photo for the purpose of disrespecting him (and without his knowledge or permission) was mean-spirited of you and a completely un-called for violation of decency, dignity and common sense.Originally Posted by Man Of Lint

If that's all that was required to have your picture posted in this thread then more than half of WAYWN (MC and SWD) would be in here.
This thread has gone more downhill than the Sartorialist thread...

Hi Doc, With respect, your question addresses not just me, but everyone who protested the use of that photo before me. I'll be happy to respond after each and every member who protested the use of that photo before me responds to your question first, though the answer to the question already lays within the words of all who have protested its usage, and specifically within the words you highlighted of my own post. btw, great avatar, and I enjoy reading your posts very much.

Sorry, didn't mean to single you out. I'm actually agreeing with you, only on a larger scale. Most of the people pictured in this thread strike me as easy targets. Fat, funny looking, weird, whatever -- do we really need a standing thread mocking such obvious targets? The thread has become a source of ongoing nastiness, and I'm surprised it remains sanctioned after we lost RJman to the sort of unfortunate behavior Internet anonymity affords.
