Brand names that instantly label the wearer as an asshat...

[Cid_B]

IOW... If I see a guy with Tapout or Ed Hardy I instantly judge them to be a tool.

Any others?

[some guy]

1. anything that can be read from 10 ft away.

"Look at me, I paid good money to be a walking billboard."

[RandomThoughts]

2. Thats a great twist.

People said my name was somehow holding me back. The east, or the Wood, or some ways some saw Robert.

So my name is justified.

Now they say that I am a bill board by having my name in many words?



See how it is, if you do it one way, or another, they still going to find a reason to think what they want. Because they are not thinking about things, they are finding reasons to think they already know what everything is about.


If these fine story tellers are helping with many comforting stories, they are wrong, if they are shown that they are part of a bigger idea, and with much good heart in my view, although people should choose themselves what is inspired, they are thought to be tools.


The lesson is people judge for a reason to believe what they want to believe. Mostly, That they think I am not due beer and travel money, and that the world should not be more just and compassionate.

3. I don't really know if you're

due beer and travel money; have you tried saving your receipts and submitting an expense report?

Personally, I'm not very fond f beer, and I'm too lazy to save my receipts, so I doubt I'm due anything.

Some times I dislike the rules, so those times, I avoid playing the game.

:hi:

[RandomThoughts]

5. I don't play the game either.

And the 'beer and travel money' is a place holder for a larger thought developed over many years.

How it is spent would not be a due, but some type of deal. So beer and travel money works as good as any other comment within the context.

I actually don't believe it is a game either.

But I am due beer and travel money.

4. This article covers most of them

6. Surely you don't mean my Members Only jacket?

I think mine was a knock off though. :rofl:

[Lucinda]

7. None. I don't judge people based upon their clothing.

[Cid_B]

8. Well gee...

Thanks for playing... :eyes:

[bigwillq]

21. ....

:thumbsup:

it's their money. they can buy (and wear) what they want.

[snooper2]

36. how about this

[meegbear]

[bif]

10. Hard Rock Cafe or Corona t-shirts.

[zen_bohemian]

25. hmmph...I have a HRC London denim jacket

I just love that jacket :)

[Avalux]

11. Ed Hardy crap. I can't stand the unoriginal garishness and so very overpriced. n/t

[av8rdave]

12. Lexus

[dawg]

38. I used to drive a Lexus.

And I was very self-conscious of it for that very reason.

[av8rdave]

42. But you no longer do. I think I would also be self concious.

[dawg]

46. It was a >200,000 miles hand-me-down.

Of course, it's nice getting hand-me-downs. :)


On edit:

Actually, I think I inherited that car. Which was not so nice. Sad, actually. :(

[Richardo]

13. Even being AWARE of labels starts one on the slippery slope to asshattery IMO

[Cid_B]

15. Meh....

I have brands I prefer (Under Armour) but it is for their utility as opposed to the name itself...

[jmowreader]

28. Oh man...

You're probably wearing your Under Armour...well, under armor, like they intended it to be.

[Brickbat]

14. Toyota.

:hide:

And anything that says PBR.

[CJCRANE]

16. Muji.

:silly:

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

17. That car that lost the Indy 500 by crashing at the last corner.

[IcyPeas]

18. Louis Vuitton, Manolo Blahnik, Gucci, Armani, Prada, Dolce and Gabbana.

and the list goes on....

like, why do you need a bag/shoes/clothes THAT expensive? why don't they go feed a hungry kid or something?

[Chan790]

23. You don't want to know what I spend on suits for work then...

I get a work clothing allowance and I'm expected to use it. I get sent home if I'm not sufficiently attired in "statement" clothes and labels. The ones you just named...not impressive enough and overexposed.

[Cid_B]

34. Nice....

I still prefer my ACUs.. but still... every now and then I feel like wearing a suit for a day and then it passes and I go back to the woods....

[RebelOne]

37. I was thinking Louis Vuitton.

Who would want a purse with the Vuitton log all over it?

26. Looks down at my ACUs

Hmmm....

[Arctic Dave]

27. Keep them in the woods and not in my Olive Garden.

[RandomThoughts]

30. I know what you are doing there.

You compute an intent, reverse the Ents march to isolation, and state that as a purpose to defend censorship.

It is fine if existence warps more,
I am due beer and travel money.

33. Remember I may be picking up lunch to bring back to the office...

[JonLP24]

44. Could be on a lunch break

I know when I was in, lines for food on-base are packed during lunch hours. Going off base to get lunch saves a lot of time.

[NightWatcher]

47. hey, I wear my old desert bdu's out in the field on research jobs in the summer

that and those really thin fishing pants.

I'd never wear bdu's into a restaurant or any other public place

[Manifestor_of_Light]

29. Why do people wear clothes with other peoples' names on them?

I don't get it. Especially cow-pattie brown ugly purses with LV on them.

Or as Miss Manners once said, "I met a nice couple, who had names on their clothes, and I was convinced their names were Calvin Klein and Anne Klein."

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I get stuff at Le Dollar Generale.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I call my cheap house shoes "Turdettes" which I doubt I could get trademarked.

who not only ISN'T a Yankees fan, but hasn't watched a baseball game since accidently channel surfing to a rerun of "Bull Durham"...

[JonLP24]

39. I don't judge

based on brands they wear.

40. Republican

Avoid anyone who wears any clothing in public supporting any Repig.

43. Whoa! Even my Nixon-Lodge beanie?

45. I change my answer to this

[joeybee12]

41. Do they still make Members Only? nt
