Actually "Khakis" has been used to describe a specific type of trouser for quite some time now, and has little to do with the colour or the material. So technically you're right and wrong.

And I used to play on a MUD that originated from Australia, so the game never identified things like "color" or "armor" or "gray", it was always "colour" or "armour" or "grey". I drift in and out sometimes when I get tired and/or have been drinking, shit sucks.

I've never used the word "gray." It just... looks wrong. I've never been sure which is supposed to be the British spelling, though.

Khaki to me has always referred to that drab yellow-brown color. I spent most of my childhood wearing black or blue slacks, so I try to avoid wearing them intentionally. Never once, though, had I heard them referred to as "black khakis," even though that's certainly accurate in some twisted universe, prior to this thread.

they were giving away an affliction tee shirt as overtime incentive at time warner when i was there. the manager asked me and i told him it wouldnt look right with the rest of the shirts in my closet.

[renzuko]

i spent most of my childhood wearing sweat pants...now...bask in my glory....

but yeah, i dont think i regularly wore jeans between the ages of 4-15 >.> it was always sweat's, or shorts, or sweat's with ski pants on cuz it was friggin winter...

[Villainous]

Along with the affliction crowd, if you wear Ed Hardy gear, do us all a favor and slam your genitals in a car door, thanks

on SALE at the ed hardy shop for 123.99, original price 154.00
this shit has fucking RHINESTONES on it

[Serataru]

i laugh at guys who wear this shit

but also, spoilers: it doesn't fucking matter what you're wearing. Clothes do not get men laid, and anyone who thinks so is retarded.

I once had a g/f who told me, "I like skinny guys, I dont care if youre all buff"
This was possibly the worst thing she could have said to a young, impressionable me, and resulted in me being a lazy fuck for many years.
Nowadays when Im struggling at the gym, I think about her, and all the years I spent NOT getting looks from girls.
Same thing for clothes, and ones appearance in general.. may not matter to you, but I think its a tad bit disingenuous to say it doesnt matter to the female population at large.

excuse my lack of punctuation, fucking spanish language keyboard¿

[renzuko]

lol...

yeah, one of the guys in my grade kept designing that kinda shit...he drew a tree and got it printed on a shirt, and we all called it his emo tree shirt, it pissed him off so much...

Doing it wrong. Clothes don't matter. The body underneath it DOES matter. I never said I was not concerned with appearance. MY boyfriend is adorable, he has a beautiful face, flawless skin and isn't fat.
I'm superficial as a motherfucker. I'm also not saying that being well dressed and well groomed doesn't matter. It does. No one wants to fuck a hobo. What I am saying is I'm not checking to make sure his jeans are Seven for All Mankind or Rock and Republic.

I'm just tryin' to make sure he's clean and good looking before he rocks MY republic, ya dig?

If everyone's had a hand in it at one point or another, it's more of a "commune" than a "republic".

There's nothing bad about Ed Hardy.
Sure, you throw on a rhinestone-encrusted t-shirt and I'll prolly laugh you off your pedestal, but have an Ed Hardy tattoo and I'll gladly bow down to you, sir.

[Kenshiro]

In my indie fag circles, hobo looking dudes get all the girls ;.;. I think culture has a lot to do with it. Example: Black dudes dressing so flamboyant and getting lots of chicks. I fucking hate fashion. As an art form its fine, day to day it's a headache.

Well, bowing, from what I'm told, would not be the end result of purposefully wearing this shirt. It would be what you are doing WHILE bowing.

Mine's a monarchy. No sexual innuendo here, I literally put a miniature crown on it and dress it up with a red robe. Usually, that's all I will wear for the remainder of the day.

ALTERNATE RESPONSE: Communism here. From me according to my ability, to bitches according to their need. GIGGITYGIGGITYGIGGITYGIGGITYGIGGITYGIGGITYGIGGITYGIGGITYGIGGITYGIGGITYGIGGITYGIGGITYGIGGITYGIGGITYGIGGITYGIGGITYGIGGITYGIGGITY OH!

I think the point of his story was that clothes don't matter to you. If you don't think there is a girl out there that would put out if I was in a pretty damn expensive shirt, you're pretty naive. Speaking of which, wanna go for a ride on my yacht?

Oh, and you can change shirt in that previous sentence to just about anything (house, car, boat, shoes, DENTAL PLAN)

[pathwriter]

I would pay money to see a girl start dripping over a dental plan. I'd probably need a bucket to be sick in if it ever happened, but I'd still pay.

[treelo]

I dunno, sleeping with hobos might be quite a rush.

And I think that if you have low enough standards to sleep with a girl who only wants you for your rhinestone ed hardy shirt, you need to get a grip

[Yhelothur]

Actually, I think she's the one that needs to get a grip of something other than a wealthy man's penis. I've seen it plenty of times. Money talks in this day and age, and you can't deny the existence of gold diggers.

I'm going to do some experiments with things of this nature... I've got a friend who's totally into the metrosexual loop, and with his help I'm going to see if changing the clothes I wear will really change anything about the group of women I attract. I'm more into the khakis and a football jersey, or a simple solid colored t-shirt instead. It's going to be enough of a challenge for me to just step outside in some of that shit, but I'm eager to see what it'll do.
