Yea that style died out in the 2010's.

I'll never understand who the fuck cares about what's currently "in style", and why. It has to fit the person, not the society.

I do concur about the missing seatbelt though. Makes him look ugly.

I'll never forget a post on reddit i think like 8 years ago where someone had a dragonball shirt where it said "Surpreme" on it. Like the idiot brand, but it was the supreme kai. A lot of people liked the shirt and talked about it. Then there was that one guy who was like: "sure, good luck buddy, wear it if you want to commit social suicide" I was absolutely flabbergasted. Apparently he wasn't trolling, he argued about brand integrity and how these fake shirts make his real shirts look cheap and shit like that. There i kimda realised that a lot of people commenting are in high school.

Some people are really concerned with fitting in. Probably a survival trait from early humans

I only agree with style in so far as pointing out what has fallen out of style. As many, many things are stupid fads that should have never been "cool" in the first place.

Me, wearing shutter shades.

'Sup.

I can still watch Kelly LeBrock in Weird Science and realize she's insanely hot, even though '80s style is out of fashion (although it's sort of come back in bits and pieces).

Apparently nobody in Alberta got the memo.

I mean, Alberta is filled with backwoods dipshits that pretend to be US citizens from 10 years ago, so...

I guess get ready for Alberta's Donald Trump soon?

Not my friends in Alberta, but they live on a reservation.
