Ok lets be honest without bitching

people live off of things that they dug out of a trash bin (including used toothbrushes and toiletries), do you think people would care about used underwear??

 

quote: would you buy used underwear?

NO,and there are a few board games I bought there that i wish I hadn't, dirty in the wrong way

I used to wear the dress shoes from there, the ones that sat in an old guys closet for 30 years until he finally died

 

you misunderstood me

I wear second hand shit all the time too. I was saying that its funny that your younger brother is the provider of them. ive never really heard of hand me ups. usually its hand me downs.

 

frumpy rags just aren't flattering... they don't show off any shape. They make anyone look like they're trying to hide some gigantic stomach or some sort of deformity, even if they ain't. Different story if they're actually flattering types of hippie clothes.

thrift stores are awesome. There aren't many near my house though (just "vintage" stores that charge more for a T now than what it was originally, BAH). I wouldn't buy underwear from 'em, but they're great for formal clothes (especially suit jackets, which are damn expensive new but cheap used)

 

thats what makes me unique I guess.

I didnt have the benefit of older brothers to hand down clothes to me when I was growing up..... I either got new clothes, or very out of date clothes from my cousins.

now, my youngest brother goes through so many clothes..... he buys so much shit from A&F, hollisters, the buckle...... whatever trendy stores are out there... and he has to stick with the trendy clothes, so some of the older ones he just wants to ditch or hand them off, which I will gladly take for free.

 

I say fuck abercrombie and eagle and the like. I really wouldnt want to wear them if they were given to me. its because of the name. what is the point of them plastering their name across the front of it? I mean these people are walking around literally being billboards advertising for these companies. First, you pay 50 bucks for the hoodie. then you give them free advertising everytime you wear the shirt so more lemmings will buy their crap and be a walking billboard too. I dont like desinger clothes.

 

nothing wrong with taking free designer clothes though

i wish my little brother would get more fashionable, where is that little....

 

I am not really into the hippie style of clothing for me, I am basically your jeans and t-shirt person or a nice big baggie pair of sweats.

we usually shop at JC Penneys, Macy's, Robinsons May, Ross , or Kohls.

I love Ross i can go and get the girls roxy shirts for under $15.

It seems I can never find anything at the Thrift Stores i do go and look though.

 

yeah, free clothes are good, whatever the brand name may be. My grandma gave me a couple shirts (gym shirts for me mostly, since they're a bit too big), and my cousins have given me two of my favourite shirts (now almost worn through from me wearing them so much... so comfy and good)


and duckie... I wasn't saying anything like women had to wear clothing that was only sexy. I was simply agreeing with the OP that most frumpy clothing (by definition) is unflattering.

 

I always buy pants at kohls, they have the best ones and they are always cheap

 

It shows you the mindlessness of the society in which we live. People have no qualms about being walking advertisements if it means appearing "cool" to their idiot friends and the vapid fucks they wish to appeal to.

 

I dont wear the ones that have the name of the store on the front (just on the tag)

besides, who cares??? they are just clothes. if they are free, who really gives a flyin fuck?

 

ya but when you lose your shirt and your name is written on the tag, then dammit everyone knows you are wearing abercrombie..

 

hey madcrappie, i just realized that i am a senior member now. what does that mean? do i get to use a custom avatar or change the words under it?

 

like I said, it doesnt bother me. if its comfortable, and doesnt show alot of skin, and its easy on your pocketbook, it doesnt matter if 8 year old children in a sweatshop made the shirt, Id still wear the damn thing

 

I'm embarrassed if someone sees I have a tag of any kind, I'm hoping they think all of my clothes are hand crafted

 

that means you must retire and collect your social security, you old fart.

 

sso in other words i gotta give skip ten bones, then i can change all my shit. I mean this is an allright forum and all, but it dosent live up to the free speech name that it says.

but it is definately more freedom than alot of other places. but not worth ten bones imo

 

noooooooo you can still change your shit, I was just being a smart ass.
