I fucking hate those.

They were bad in Lauren Bacall's day and they haven't improved with age.

7) Septum piercing

This is a personal attack against short stuff, isn't it?

What about those damned fugly fuzzy Ugg boots?

If you have a pair of those, you should soak them in gasoline and light them on fire (taking them off first is optional).

omg i have so much to comment on in this thread.

10) Giant Sunglasses...i don't care, i'm still gonna look like a bug
I like these, I think it's cute when girls wear them...those ones are fucking ugly though, they're all rectangle

9) Leggings
Leggings look good ONLY with a denim skirt. Otherwise they're ugly, but on the other hand they are very practical, so I think I'm pro-leggings

8) American Apparel...why?
hahaha I can't believe American Apparel is successful, it's so funny, and it's just proof that people will pay a lot of money for anything you tell them is "cool". I only own one t-shirt from them, but my friend is obsessed with them. They have a store in chanta cruz, and we spent a good 2 hours in there, and I just think the store is funny on how plain it is. I actually wanted a dual colored sweatshirt they had though, it was pretty sweet.

7) Septum piercing
this is disgusting and needs to stop now.

6) Male V-Neck Shirts
No, actually, THIS needs to stop NOW. I HATE these they are sick and anyone wearing them is a fucking queeh


5) bright shoes

Yeah these need to go, but Nike SB's need to stay, they have some really cool looking ones, but not those 80's styled disasters

4) scarfs....NO i like scarfs!
Well that scrap of your grandmother's quilt that this guy's wearing needs to go, but scarfs in general are fun and cute and useful...for WOMEN.

3) Skinny jeans on men
Yeah this needs to die, but I don't think it will in 2008, it's too installed in the skater/scene/emo group to die so quickly. I like jeans that fit, but don't hug anything. And I HATE boot cut, for that matter.

2) Women's Vest
Well this one is a surprise for number 2, I can take it or leave it

1) Knit Beret
hahaha, these definitely need to go. I hate the ones that flop over, those are so ugly and not cute at all.

Uggs
Uggs will never die and I'm glad, I LOVE girls that wear Uggs they are so cute, tan with dark blue jeans, and black with light colored jeans, they go so well! I lovvvvve girls that wear ugggggss. But seriously, the magazines and shows on E! keep trying to say these have "gone out of fashion", yet they come back every winter with a vengeance to prove all those Hollywood bitches wrong.

I don't, they are a fashion felony in the first degree! They look like they're going to hike Mount Everest! They look rediculous, especially when it's sunny out. Please ladies, STOP wearing them! Just because a bunch of other stupid girls wear them doesn't mean you have to jump on the bandwagon! Get some Docs if you want to wear boots, at least those make you look like a badass instead of a dumbass!

My department had a halloween party at an Elk's lodge and a couple of the guys came in Uggs, tights, and big sweaters. Everyone knew they were supposed to be undergrad girls. I literally see thousands of girls walking around like this every day on campus. It might replace catholic school girls' uniforms as my number one favorite fetish outfit.

My policy:

April - September: flip flops

October - March: UGGs

* UGGs are not a fashion statement or fad for me. I've been wearing them for over ten years (way before they were a Hollywood trend) because they keep my feet warm in the Buffalo/Detroit cold weather.

God no, do not do that.

I'm gonna go ahead and give you a pass as the only girl that can have one and still look cute.

i was watching an episode of ghost whisperer because i hate myself and there is this boy named ned on it and he looks just like anfernee.
I haven't seen it, don't like that show much, but I'm guessing I'd probably disagree with you. I'll have to download it and check on this ned character. Also, at a party a month ago, a guy told me if I grew my hair out longer I'd be a dead ringer for Sunshine from Remember the Titans, and I can actually see this one, cause I looked at a picture, and the guy looks a lot like my brother.

... that's the best thing about undergrad girls. I get older, they stay the same age.
I bought a shirt from abahcrombee that says "Freshman. I get older, they stay the same age", it gets me so many chicks, it's insane. [/sarcasm] I always thought it'd be hilarious if an old chubby professor came in and purchased that shirt, I literally might've died laughing.

after I posted this on myspace, i got the following:


not sure what it's all about

and leggings need to go. There's people out there like Lindsay Lohan who wear them without a skirt, or shorts. Leggings are not substitutes for pants.


and I forgot that stef had a septum peircing. my apologies

does your uggs say "uggs" on them? mine don't.

the only thing that I don't like about them, is that you can't clean them when they get dirty. That's why I only wear leather boots and keep my shoes polish with me at all times.

Genuine UGGs do say "UGG" on them. They've been around for at least 30 years. No matter how hard the fashion industry tries to make people think they are no longer in fashion, even die-hard fashionistas continue to wear them because they are the most comfortable and warm things you can ever put on your feet.

i wear mine like this..

Uggs will never die

Damn are you young and naive.

—anobody

Ugh boots come back every winter because sheepskin is the best for keeping warm. It will be centuries before anything synthetic will be as good.
Possibly longer!
And he's right, they'll never die. Damn you are young and insular.
They're our boots, stop copyrighting our culture motherfuckers!
Apparently that's coming undone now though, that whole "I put a claim on a cultural tradition". Well, at least in regards to ugh boots. Indigenous motherfuckers are still out of luck.

Genuine UGGs do say "UGG" on them. They've been around for at least 30 years. No matter how hard the fashion industry tries to make people think they are no longer in fashion, even die-hard fashionistas continue to wear them because they are the most comfortable and warm things you can ever put on your feet.

—pookie

There's really no such things as genuine when it comes to ugh boots. It's just whether they're quality or not.
They're so comfortable, aren't they!
Um, recently two friends of mine have started wearing ughs all the time. It bothers me for several reasons.
-it's warm weather now
-they're black ughs so they look like shoes at first through fifth glance
-they never used to wear them all the time back in the day
-they're both mud people
-i haven't had a pair for the last 4 winters

I don't recommend wearing ughs on an interstate trip to Sydney, then running around the airport looking for your brother. They aren't designed for athletic activity, you'll risk rolling your ankle.
Also, don't go to the mall wearing them, get separated from your ride, then have to walk home for 3 hours wearing them, even if it is the middle of the night. They'll pretty much disintegrate from the sweat and the friction.
