I do not understand the "why" of any of this, it seems like just a bunch of weird design choices made for no reason.

It's supposed to be a copy of this RO, I think from S/S07 or thereabouts:

It's a pretty horrible copy though, it looks like ****.

Thank God for the meritocracies of the world... the head of our litigation department once told me, quote, "man, you dress weird." Yet here I am.

The concept of "stakes" applies most readily to the internet in the sense that most of this crap would never be said in person, in large part as a result of social niceties and instilled instincts of politeness but somewhat also for fear of getting punched in the face.


someone sig please

the concept of stakes most readily applies to places like the middle east, where you can literally be killed for how you dress. luckily snowman will never be stoned to death for how he dresses, but he (like all of us here) runs the risk of not getting hired for a job or being judged.

^^^ Haha, it's not the greatest RO but I don't think that one's that bad. Something about the proportions and lines of the BS replica are just wrong though, the curves of the lines on the jacket make it look fat. Very fat.
