Get Your Head out of Your Ass Dude
I went for an espresso (Have become total Euro trash since 2010 vacation to Italy) at Intelligentsia today. I hated espresso my entire life. Just the foulest, most bitter shit. And then finally 1.5 years ago I actually tried it and realized I liked it. Nothing vaguely resembling what it tasted like when I had never tried it before in my life yet determined it sucked. Who knew? On my way I passed an immaculately dressed, rather large man, headed in the opposite direction. Sharp blue suit and some hip cowboy boots purchased from some place I've never even heard of. And a scarf. A big, fire-engine red, fuck you scarf. It is 55 degrees and sunny today. It wasn't even tied for warmth but rather for show. Mind you, he didn't even have a jacket on. The pattern was huge skull and crossbones.....or so you might think before you looked closely. I understand skull and crossbones have been hot for several years now. And I concede that it has somehow become socially acceptable for dudes to wear ornamental scarves (although I would have liked to see someone sneak one past my Grandpa Ken while he was still alive. Not so fucking fast, muchacho) these days. How that happened, I'm not sure. But I'll let a dude slide I guess with a trendy scarf on a warm day. But then I looked closely. The skulls were actually bunny rabbits. Not even mean looking sadistic fucking evil bunnies either. Goofy ones with big teeth. Get the fuck out of my face bro! C'mon man, clean that shit up. There were still crossbones below. What the fuck kind of statement is the designer trying to make? If the statement is that you're a huge asshole, then you win this season of Project Runway dickhole. And don't try that "Well, maybe he's gay" argument either. There is having a little flair--which I completely respect--and then there is having a little fucking respect for yourself. This violates the latter, egregiously. You are better than this buddy, start acting like it.
