no, **** I wish. My goal is to move there once I graduate next year as I use to live there when I was younger, and it was the happiest time of my life.

Meant no disrespect scott... iirc, you work for an interior design firm correct? I'll be looking for design jobs in NYC pretty soon, different field though.

Use it to figure out what you want. If ever there was a time to buy some **** that you're sure you'll wear every day (as has been said), that time is now. Getting more, more, more, isn't going to make you feel better; it'll make you feel worse. Lurking on SF is fine as long as it's not a) ruining your credit, or b) ruining your social life. Find a pair of Nordstrom bucks on ebay for 25$, wear them with your 2 pairs of pants/denim in the fall and with cropped shorts in the spring. You do not need to pay 130$ for epaulet shirts. You're short, you'll likely need most things tailored - god help me that I'm about to say this - so just shop jcrew on sale for shirts and have them tailored (to fit like BoO). Buy a few of them, even. Figure out what you want, like the inimitable jetdawg has said, and then buy **** you love. It's worth it to buy quality; but dude, you're like 19, worry about **** that matters.

yeah du I feel what you're saying. *******, I think I'll just cop some simple canvas sneakers and save the cash to get some of my shirts tailored and maybe pick up one new ocbd (probably from lec, can't really beat the price and they fit well enough).

FWIW, most of my purchases since joining fs have been getting a ton of wear. My denim, boots, trousers, shirts, and boots all get a lot of wear and I am happy with most everything.

on the same note as that though, I picked up my dad some Midleton for Christmas to celebrate some stuff and it was pretty phenomenal, so much so I always get excited to go home now because I know after that train ride I'll step inside to a glass of it haha

I might check it out. I feel like I haven't ventured much in the world of whiskey's. I haven't had anything smokey really.

Fun nugget of beer knowledge - the majority of Brooklyn beer is actually brewed on contract in Utica, NY at the FX Matt brewery (their non-contract beers are the Saranac line). Check out the label on your next bottle of Brooklyn (especially the lager, IIRC). It'll probably say it was brewed in Utica.

Interesting. The only times I've had Brooklyn lager is on tap, so I've never seen the bottle.

And also, lol at the Chuck E. Cheese comparison.
