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.

Any advice?

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.

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.
