Interestingly enough I believe servo2000 has never posted in the WAYWT thread and is 17....which is quite telling when it comes to lms's amazing power of observation and analysis. I’m of the opinion that some of the outfits posted on the cobrasnake/misshapes/whatever are fun (I sometimes visit a thread on tFS where people post those pics, too lazy to look at the main pages myself) and I certainly don't begrudge kids for partying. Now that being said, on a purely style-related level, most of the people there dress amazingly bad and have the haircuts to prove it, should they be caught unclothed. I do believe this is the reason why some posters on a fashion board, such as this one, are critical of this particular scene. There might be some “party envy†creeping here and there in some posters comments but that does not invalidate the argument that this scene’s uniform is certainly not to be lauded. Not that I didn’t dress like an idiot during my heavy involvement in the rave/underground party scene or anything myself….

Strictly speaking of fashion style, what makes your style so different than theirs? While I can't be certain what your exact style is, I'm sure if you scoured hard enough you'd find that some of "those" kids wear similar outfits to the ones you wear, and at the very least you'd find "them" wearing pieces that you own or would like to own. Let's not pretend that we're so different. For instance, you know that perennially pissed of kid from the Misshapes with a bowl haircut? He claims to only shop at Opening Ceremony. Sure, he's a pretentious twat, and maybe you wouldn't rock his daily uniform of black, but who amongst us wouldn't like a wardrobe consisting of outfits from Opening Ceremony?

Yohji is my favorite designer, he consistenly brings us great collections. I absolutely love asian culture (anime, cars, food, girls, and porn lol) and I especially like those cartoon sweaters. I agree with Fuuma, the lavendar sweater is the most striking piece out of the whole collection and the chick on it just looks so tasty... mmm... eurasian with a badunkadunk! The only drawback is I couldn't wear the sweater to japanese culture club or anime club at school, I'd be the victim of a bukkauke frenzy with that hot chick on my chest.. lol!

Great timing for this collection to drop! I just raised my high school GPA to a 2.3 so my dad owes me $1,000 as part of our do well in school contract. I might spend all the money on Yohji =))))

btw. where/when can I cop???

i just wanted this here for posterity's sake. contrasted with this thread, it makes me

laugh very, very much. i hope it works for other people too.

[Icarus]

It might just be my sense of humor, but I think french-fry guy is awesome. I think it's the haircut that really does me in.

[dry the rain]

2.3 in high school gets you $1000?? I got a 3.9 and i didn't get paid shit. lms must not be the sharpest tool in the shed if he needs to get paid to pull his gpa up to "average" (though in most schools it's well below average). sorry. that's not really related to the thread.

i hate that fry-guy. it's that i know he dropped a fuck ton of cash on that outfit. if it were a generic halloween style french fry costume, i'd get a kick out of it.

A 3.9 GPA? What are you freshman lol! Honestly kid, with that kind of GPA you should be able to read critically. The system has failed you!

btw. i go to a private high school in the pallisades. my class schedule is:

Chem 2 AP

Bio 2 AP

Comp Sci 2 Adv Proj AP

Calculus BC

English 3 Honors

Football (junior varsity)

My dad is on the admissions council at USC =)))

btw. Please answer my real questions and ignore the feeble-minded who fall victim of trolling. It separates the wheat from the chaff so to speak. Notice how few people think on this board.

[onemancult]

Read between the lines. yhbt.

no, yaadh.

seriously.

so, chill.

no harm, no foul, mr. football player.

[dry the rain]

hmmm...well seeing as 3.93 was my gpa upon graduation, i'm thinking you should probably remove your foot from your mouth (or your head from your ass).

my senior schedule:

AP Physics

AP English

AP Calc

AP US Gov't

Honors Econ.

French

Orchestra (2nd Chair Cello)

1st and 2nd male lead in 2 Semester Long stage productions

also, i don't care who your daddy is. though i do shudder to know that a man in a position of relative power is so woefully incapable of raising a worthwhile kid.

**sorry for derailing the thread a bit, everyone. i realize i'm falling victim to trolling. but this kid needs to be put down.**

[dry the rain]

i'm in uni, i'm just feeling like lms needs to be put in his place. my apologies to everyone else.

I'm enjoying watching the high school kids compare course schedules when there are plenty of people who have graduated college, or are in college and have already taken those classes. I'm glad i didn't care about style that much in high school. I grew an inch or two freshman year of college and lost about 10 lbs. I would've wasted a lot of money.

[dry the rain]

i realize that my busting out the old schedule is a bit lame, but i'm just trying to make a point here. this kid's getting a ridiculous amount of money for performing pretty badly in school. doesn't that bother anyone but me?

in a thread that's spent a lot of time hating on conspicuous wealth and living it up on mommy and daddy's dime, i'm just hating on a kid who's flaunting his wealth that he got from daddy.

and, as i said before, i'm in college. graduating in may.

i wasn't ragging on you in particular. how you remember your high school schedule blows my mind, but congrats on finishing college....maybe i'm old, but i don't remember paying any attention to fashion in highschool, and also couldn't fathom buying a runway piece in highschool. there are a lot of highschool kids on this board that should be finding a kegger in the woods ...

so much hatin. i work hard and play hard. i intern at my dad's investment banking firm in NYC. i also work for Fred Segal and model part time in chicago for money. not to mention my punk band. moreover, i'm a regular contributor to vice magazine.

it bothered me immensely, too. that's why i brought it up here... also,

considering the shit he tried to talk about a few tried-and-true board members,

how could i resist?

Edit: upon further review, lms, please shut the fuck up. please. no one gives a fuck. i bet you shit diamonds, right? cool. shit me a grill or something some time.

Wait let me get this straight; Your Dad is involved with USC and also works in NYC and you work at Fred Segal and do modeling in Chicago? So, is this a private plane taking you all over the United States for these jobs? Or did the alarm just go off?

[dry the rain]

^^ i wondered about that as well. here's my conclusion: this kid is full of shit.

poly: i had to think hard on it to remember a couple of those classes. the ap ones all got me college credit so they were on my online grade thingy.

omc: get me a matching grill man. it'll be great. also, i'm looking you up next time i'm in NY. i'm moving there in the fall (ideally) and i need to meet some people. you sound like you know the city really well.

[poly800rock]

its not even that big a deal to brag about USC admissions, that shit is all who will pay anyways, it's not like it's a hard college to get in to, the pubic UC schools are much more competitive than USC

My father lives in NYC and my mother lives in LA. We also have a summer homes in France, Hong Kong, and Argentina. My father is contantly traveling, and I like to spend time in Chicago with my friends whenever I get the chance. Again, work hard, play harder!!1

Enough on me. Please can we stay on topic, let's go back to criticizing the spoiled hipsters, those who don't realize their spoiled, and the conceited self-important Superfuturians with their heads so far up their asses they can't smell shit when it's right in front of them (mind you, they also thought the Borat movie was a true documentary).

Can we go back to my original question before a few idiots took the bait?

TO FUUMA & ALL OTHERS:

We're not so different than them: the difference is we're stupider and we can't pull off our half-assed outfits.

I guess that's why they call it University of Spoiled (rich) Children & Coaches

Where is the 'working hard' in this? I can see your Pops may be working hard, but all you seem to be doing is spending his hard earned money.

Enough on me.

So you're pointing out the fact you know your spoiled? Well atleast we all have something straight. And I do believe you have shown enough in your very few posts that warrants some criticizing of it's own.

Bait? Stupider? Half-assed outfits, where in the world do you come up with this stuff?

[poly800rock]

Is on HBO now. I saw this movie on the plane back from japan, and i'm still laughing at how funny this movie actually is.....fat martin was decent at a few things

[dry the rain]

i just got a splitting headache... it's ok, though. i'll just jump on the jet and get my doctor Tokyo to take care of it. on the way back i'm partying in milan with my friends. don't worry, i'll bring everybody from superfuture a couple italian girls as souvenirs. they'll be flocking to me, 'cause they all know i do some modelling for prada on the side. oh yeah, i almost forgot: my daddy's rich. are you all impressed now?

was it L.A. reid's son that called himself a DIVO?

[goldengloves]

was it L.A. reid's son that called himself a DIVO?

You know I'm not sure, but that kid was out of hand. lol

[Akura]

L.A. Reids son was a hypebeaster too! Plus he was fat as hell! If i owned Def Jam records I wouldn't let my son turn into a fat ass and have a limo take him to BWS everyday!

[GoodHustle]

was it L.A. reid's son that called himself a DIVO?

No, the kid with dreds called himself a DIVO. He threw a lame ass fashion show, and popped his collar. I get sucked into crap tv.

[chronoaug]

Sooo..... Scenesters huh?
