I wouldn't do it all the time. I think it looks sharp with a certain "rocker" look. I mean, it's totally not right if you're in a suit and tie and meeting with lawyers. But say you're just out for some drinks or making a day of record store rounds. Why not?

because the record store jerks...err...i mean clerks will make fun of you and not sell you the rare, vintage goods.

gmku 01.09.2008 12:08 PM

Yeah. They're more sympathetic to the regular guy, you're saying? Because that way they're still cooler?

I've seen some extremely emo, tattooed-up, eyelinered sales clerks in those places, you know.

yeah but:

a) it's not you it's them, they are cunts.

b) the totally emo goth kids will think that you're just some dad who is trying too hard to look cool and is kinda clueless about it. best case scenario, they'll offer you vinyl editions of good charlotte.

of course, i'm not saying this to offend you, just trying to give a perspective.

ALIEN ANAL 01.09.2008 12:22 PM

who gives a fuck what these people think.

I thought we were all friends around here and could ask each other anything.

You're causing me too seriously rethink my attitude about this place.

I was so wrapped up in the drag queen freakshow aspect of it all that I hadn't even considered that!

I'm taking back the make-up that I bought at lunch.

:(

gmku 01.09.2008 12:52 PM

So let's take a poll: How many SY forum-ers of the male kind use eyeliner?

does it have to be on our eyes, or does using it to make our penis look like a circus elephant count?

if so, please add !@#$%! to the list.

Bad example of male eyeliner trend:
 


The best example for male eyeliner trend. HOT!!! (you need the hair. Also, Nikki pulls it off with sport coats these days)

He used eyeliner to pencil in a goatee? Lame.

NO/YES

EMMAh 01.09.2008 01:40 PM

Very rarely can a guy wear eyeliner and look sexy.

gmku 01.09.2008 01:48 PM

All right, then, there we have it. Coming from you, Emmah, that decides it for me! No eyeliner for gmku.

Rob Instigator 01.09.2008 01:52 PM

nikki sixx just looks like a washed up fucking loser, trying to maintain his "cred" so he can fuck 17 year olds.

unfortunately i'm 32.

king_buzzo 01.09.2008 04:28 PM

hmm here's a fun fact, the eyelashes on my bottom eyelid are really really dark and close together so they look like eyeliner.

Norma J 01.09.2008 05:27 PM

I've never been one to wear eyeliner. I've always imagined I'd feel like a dick standing infront of the mirror applying irrelevant cosmetics before heading out somewhere.

I used to wear nail polish alot when I was a teen. But then... I was a teen. So I put it down to that.

do not.
only a certain demographic can pull it off and sparingly even then.

I can't stand that fucking Leto guy. He should have stuck to acting and left the music to a musician.

HaydenAsche 01.09.2008 08:17 PM

No. A thousand times no. And if you do, you can't listen to SY or visit this forum. Only emo faggots wear eyeliner.

Norma J 01.10.2008 12:17 AM

I was just at the record store and these eyeliner Leto fools were there with some little 'emo' girls who looked 13. One actually looked like Leto.

The moral of this story is that eyeliner is for dickheads.

Everyneurotic 01.10.2008 12:27 AM

jared leto and 30 seconds to mars are hilarious!!!! i watch their videos everytime they come on because they are so pompous and pretentious and the songs are this ridiculously stereotypical screamo shit that you can't keep a straight face.

i'm this close to buying the album.
