Bio
Just look at us. Everything is backwards, everything is upside down. Doctors destroy health, lawyers destroy justice, psychiatrists destroy minds, scientists destroy truth, major media destroys information, religions destroy spirituality and governments destroy freedom.” ― Michael Ellner ----------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- "We are grateful to the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time Magazine, and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subject to the bright lights of publicity during these years. But the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government... The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past centuries." - David Rockefeller, Speaking in June, 1991 meeting in Baden, Germany"---------------------------- -"The scientific community would come down on me in no uncertain terms if I said the world had cooled from 1998. OK it has but it is only 7 years of data and it isn't statistically significant." - UN Scientist Phil Jones to scientist John Christy July 5th 2005--------------------------------------

Fucktard Couture. Fashion Tragedy Through The Years

Rate: 6 Flag

Never one for fashion myself, even I can spot bad fashion when I see it. If we take cues from the experts we can't go wrong:

But not everyone wants to look like a place mat. Someone's been spending too much time in grandma's linen closest.

No, we are here to consider some of the dumber fashions in recent years.

Like the mullet. Kid Rock never looked so stylish. Wait, that's not Kid Rock. It's Joe Dirt:

Mullet3

Of course, women can wear mullets too:

MulletChick 
One can mistake a Mullet for a Dyke Spike.  But this one is clearly long in the back, removing questions about her sexual preference, though her sanity is another story.
And let's not forget Jammer shorts:

The boots really make it, huh?
Let's try another:

But wait, Eddie Vedder in a wife beater?
Can't find a better man, indeed:
Eddie Vedder61 

  Still, what would domestic violence be without a Mac logo and coffee stains?

And let's not exclude the girls.
Eliza Cutbert looks pretty hot in a cutoff wife beater:

But no one is more stylish than Neil Young, in trademark fishing hat and mutton chops. Maclean Stevenson never looked so good.

Hello, Larry. And goodbye.

Micheal Nesmith would be jealous.

I know I'm old because I've never worn a baseball hat backwards or sideways. Why? The point of baseball hats is to keep the sun out of your eyes. Something lost on anyone under 40.

They're turned perfectly sensible sporting gear into a Christian yamaca.

Combine that with a doo rag, and you have...
a really confused gang member?

And who could forget floods:

Or this guy with the floods and hat that went out in 1982:
untitled13 
Ok, maybe floods are hip again.
Like this guy, trying for the homeless crossing guard look:
untitled14 
 I know what you did last summer - Dressed like an asshole.

But if you really want props you have to combine stupid looks. Like this woman in a wife beater dress with boots. That is a woman, isn't it?

 She must be a New Yorker.
No one else would go out in public dressed like that.
Well, maybe no one.

 I don't kno0w what he's going for. Liz Taylor on a drinking binge? Ok, is she ever not on one? Robert Smith is a pioneer in this respect. Hair by Katrina.

But enough with the fashion tragedies. That's it for now.
Floods, wife beaters, mutton chops, mullets, it's all good, people.

Amy Crackhouse. Jesus. Whoever dresses her should be restrained and medicated.
OMG!

"snorts tea out nose"

LMFAO!

I hope it was green tea. It's healthier.
this was great...your commentary was right on..well 'cept don't be dissin' on robert smith..i adore the cure! rated for laughs
The Cure are one of the few 80s acts I liked. Great sense of melody.
You made me laugh...and I will admit to thinking the same thing at times, especially about baseball caps.
Yup. Get a freaking beanie. A basebal hat is to block the sun. Sombreros, same thing. Famers hat, block the sun. Tricorner hat in revolution, funnel rain. Hats serve a purpose. Ever seen a baseball player wear one sideways? He would have to be an idiot. But these no neck morons all run around with hats on backwards. What the fuck?
Maybe I'll have to add a section on baggy pants. Get a fucking belt. You look like you just crapped yourself.
Nice compilation of fashion "don'ts". BTW, you left out the paisley conspiracy of the '80s. I had my fair share of paisley ties. But, I was always a fashion "don't even think about it." R
