    These things makes me mad as well:

    1. Writing blocks.

    2. Many projects, so little time.

    Well, according to her the picture of a cat hugging boobs is indeed Xiao's breasts.

    Hasn't been confirmed by DE though.

    Hear hear, good Steamcock!

    It's not even a matter of "Why would you do that?!?"
    It's more a matter of "How can you do that?!?"

    When there are 30 persons who can't answer one god damned question during a 3 hours class. I mean, at least 75% of the my classmates know the answer, but it's like I'm on of a selected few who got the courage/interest to actually say something. And now even I've stopped, after I heard a comment similar to "It's good we have you, since then we don't have to say something". I have enough empathy to feel sad when I look at our teacher since he's good at his subject and really tries to start a discussion whenever there's a chance.

    Edit: Fixed.

    Saggy tits really bug me. Especially since I have to stare at them now everytime I read some of the posts on here.

    I'd say that we did it just to drive you away from the forums, but a) you'ren't an ancient, and therefore not worth worth my heckling, and b) I didn't really've a say in the matter, and am somewhat terrified by them myself.

    Especially when trying to enjoy your collective company at work.



    It drives me nuts when men wear sleeveless shirts.

    Dark undershirts with light colored shirts
    Collared shirts with the top button buttoned and no tie
    Mixing brown and black
    Striped ties with striped shirts
    Blue shirts with white collars
    Slacks with tennis shoes
    Anything with horizontal stripes
    Wrinkled suits
    Being stigmatized any time I wear a trench coat
    Men who can't tie a Windsor knot, but want to critique my wardrobe
    Women's shoes with pointy toes
    Women who nag me any time I go beyond 3 days facial hair growth
    Women who hug me and get makeup on my clothes
    Makeup

    I could do without all of these things.

    Ah yes, the incredibly stupid fucking world of modern fashion. Apparently I'm not 'cool' because I choose to wear a shirt that covers my chest and trousers. Never mind that it's autumn and fucking freezing already, if I'm not dressed like a brainless slut I'm somehow less important than they are...

    *exasperated noise*

    That does make it tricky at times.

    Oh man. All this time I never knew you were gay. It all makes perfect sense now.

    When did it become gay to be aware of the foundational fashion rules governing mens formal/semi-formal attire? Fags should not be the only men who know how to tie a tie and shine their shoes, though we are approaching that unfortunate state of affairs as the men of the world devolve into poorly dressed slobs. Sometimes I wish I had been born in the 1920's, when there were more fedoras than baseball caps.

    Fedora's are the best hats ever to be invented.

    As for your list, I'll admit I can't tie a full windsor, only a half windsor.

    Sometimes it's practical to wear tennis shoes with slacks - I do at work because I'm walking and/or standing for 9 hours straight and I don't get the kind of support from my shoes that I do from my tennis ones.

    Everything else on you're list I couldn't agree with more.

    Oh man. All this time I never knew you couldn't tell someone with a dash of metro from a faggot, faggot.

    I agree that the sensibilities of modern fashion are completely fucked. The true litmus test for a dumb slut is wearing short pants that barely cover your ass crack along with a pair of UGG boots (do a Google image search if you don't know what I'm talking about). My fiancee goes ballistic every time she sees someone wearing them. Sheepskin boots + no clothing = mental retardation. Was the notion of eugenics (for the purpose of weeding out the village idiots) really all that bad?

    Dude, even I can tie a full Windsor. It's not hard... although I must admit I was always bemused by all the people at my school who used those stupid elastic ties instead of just learning how to actually tie one. (Lets hear it for private schools with real uniforms, keeping the Windsor Knot alive in this generation of fuckwits.)

    Don't even start me on Ugg Boots. They're fucking slippers! It used to be that only ferals wore them in public, and now they're suddenly a fashion statement? WTF?
