Gee thanks. I have actually liked a lot of your fits, and disliked others, but I have chosen not to lash out at you or any other posters with childish and pseudo-clever negative commentary.

Way to welcome a guy to the forum.

That's the kind of witty response to a first post that makes a person look downright xenophobic. Cmon, you want new people posting here... don't you?

That shirt is actually pretty loose and drapey, but I disagree with that premise in any case. There isn't as much difference appearancewise IMO if a shirt is tapered if you're going to tuck it in.

Real nice, asshole. This from a guy who posts fits wearing an old-man underwear t-shirt and wears denim leggings. You look like the bigger marsupial to me.

It's the only way I know how to respond to a crappy outfit. Would you prefer I lie? Perhaps you'll be inspired to try something a little more creative in your next post. What's stopping you from telling me why certain outfits are crap?. Bring on the tough love it's appreciated feedback.

Sure I do, but a new crap outfit is just a new crap outfit. Like I said its takes something noteworthy for me to offer feedback, really good or downright bad. I've posted here for 2 years and today was only the second time I've kissed GS's bum for his outfit. If someone has an inspiring look I'll say something, if someone looks like a bag of diahorea I'll say something, it shouldn't matter if it's their 1st or 1000th post. Why should criticism be censored to some PG13 softly softly approach? At least my critique is shrouded in sarcasm versus just calling someone a "douche".
You guys need to get over the skinny jeans look like leggings issue already, such conservatism doesn't belong here , if you need to adhere to certain rules concerning silhouette then this isn't the place for you. A skinny fit is perfectly acceptable and comes down to confidence, comfort, styling and not weighing 300 pounds. I do understand how you may have confidence issues wearing a skinny jean if you live in the boonies with toothless parents in a town full of methed out red necks.

I always enjoy the feedback from lurkers with single digit post counts. It's like the kids in class that don't talk and then when everyones screaming that's when they have the courage to say something, but no one hears them!. Pay attention to the fact that I'm talking about the clothes, not the person wearing them, your 5 posts in and labelling me an "asshole", I would say thats a far more personal insult than any post I've made concerning a persons outfit. Poor show fella!.

If anything, this place is almost too polite. If someone spends some time lurking on the forum and still can't tell that the picture they post is going to get reamed, then they deserve the reaming.

If you start posting pics without spending any time lurking at all, that's just rude and you deserve to be reamed with a broken broomstick.

I agree with Baron and Rye GB and think it's totally cool to be very critical when a outfit is of such obvious poor quality. Personally I usually only comment a fit I really really like but I think this place needs more constructive critical feedback when the posts are ******. Please lash out at me if I ever post something as bad as that.

Don't you know that he emerged from his mother's vaginal canal the epitome of "stealth wealth" style?

Anything for the online circle jerk fodder.
