Like I said, not trying to be argumentative, it just seems you have a different take on the subject. The woman thing was just meant as an example, not something I thought you had done. My point is that just because he is a part of hip hop culture as you call it, does not mean that this outfit doesn't represent some disconnect he has with that culture. Maybe he doesn't quite pull it off because he's not as closely connected to hip hop as he'd like to be. Maybe he's a part of that culture, but his own individuality clashes with it as well? |

That's pretty standard dress for Hipsters these days. I've seen this look a million times over. It just doesn't ring true for you. And that's because you don't identify with the culture itself. And that's okay, but call a spade a spade... Sheesh! |
How silly to think that just because someone wants to puke when they see this particular outfit that it means they are not fully able to enjoy any of the thousands of other walking examples in his user defined socially evolved culture.

Couldn't have been her failure to see the distinction between Hip Hop and Black cultures that has me leads me to believe she's disaffected. Or the fact that she thinks he's struggling to pull the look off. Or the fact she thinks his attire represents a disconnect with the culture that it's derived from. :rolleyes: |

What's that style of cap called? Chef Boyartrucker? |
Sorry, I don't see any culture/style in those clothes, other than the shoes. Put a non-celebrity in those clothes and he'd be laughed out of the bar and back into the bayou.

You really ought to recognize that fact. Just like I don't get Rock culture and skinny jeans that force your nuts back up into your stomach. Hardly means there isn't value in it. I just don't understand it. |
I assume it's okay if I have my opinion. In my opinion, that hat looks goofy and I've never seen anyone in the hip hop culture where anything like it. However, if that hat was available to comedians on the stages at Branson...

I might not understand cultures, but I can recognize them and accept them. I can't recognize what he wants to be. BTW...I never understood the skinny jeans either. I like the clacker on my bell to have breathing room:D |
It's like Ashton Kutcher and Abraham Lincoln had a hatbaby.

Again, this is not a unique look. It's a hipster look that's traveled the country for 3 years now. |

My point is, there's nothing cultural or original here. It's just a mix of crap. It would be like me going to the bar in my cowboy boots, mesh tank-top, and plaid golf pants. There's no culture and since I'm not a celebrity, it's just ugly. Quote:

There's nothing manufactured about it. Johnson is merely hopping on a fashion trend that's been in play for years now. |
ROFL If that is hip I guess I am not! The only thing missing is a red nose. That outfit would embarrass a clown.

And I once met a White Supremacist who got mad at me when I made fun of his red laces. But not mad mad. Cuz no one ever gets mad mad at me. Even when I'm talking to a big meathead who doesn't acknowledge that I'm part white. But if that doesn't convince you, I barely typed "red laces" into google. and a whoooooole bunch of crap popped up. "red laces racist" "red laces white supremacist" So. If a chick off the internet can't convince you. And google can't convince you. Then you can listen to Michammer here convince you about something. |

I'm not the one who got defensive...you acted like I was claiming someone said that. honestly, if you put a white guy in that outfit, he'd look like redneck... sometimes people become the monster so the monster won't break them. |

I know why Lake Lloyd was made. I know how much a gallon of milk weighs. I know the origin of the phrase Pole Position. I know all the names of all the wives of Henry VIII. I know how the hook is made that lifts an auto welder into a John Deere cab. And I can still recite the first 20 minutes of Deep Throat and the preamble to the Constitution. What the hell else do I need brain cells for? |

One other person made a comment about my being adept at debate. That's hardly the same thing. Way to stretch it though for the sake of argument. You say this like being debative's a bad thing. I won't apologize for having strong opinions and a prowess for expressing them. Quote:
