if jeans were people . . . .

Levi's 501 - Marlon Brando

Used to be cool, young, sexy and talented. Became fat and ugly, an embarrasing caricature of himself. Reduced to complaining and bitching, a mere shadow of his former greatness.

Samurai 5000BK - Malcom X

Black, strong, proud and intelligent--a role model for young black jeans. Many jeans try to come close, but the 5000BK is always blacker.

21 ounce Iron Hearts - Charles Bronson

This fucker is tough. At 21 oz, he's not a lightweight. He eats GAP jeans for breakfast and Diesel for dinner. And he shits out sterling silver rivets.

please add on to this list.

Dior Homme 19cm - Jude Law

Long, lanky, dashing, and a complete poof.

[cheapmuthafukr]

S0500XX-ron jeremy

"manly spirit" denim... hairy, masculine, and gets even stiffer when it gets wet.

dior-Pete Doherty

all the fashionistas love them. junkie skinny. played out.

In our case, if jeans were people, they'd smell of BO and whatever else can accumulate after 1-6+ months of not washing themselves.

taken from wikipedia:

The "Gallagher Too" controversy

At some point during the early 90s, Gallagher's younger brother Ron Gallagher asked Gallagher for permission to perform shows using Gallagher's old routines, and also using Gallagher's trademark Sledge-O-Matic routine. The idea was that Ron Gallagher, who was unemployed, would tour the country working small venues that couldn't afford a show put on by Gallagher himself. Since Ron bears a strong familial resemblance to his older brother, the show would be almost like having a real Gallagher show.

Gallagher granted his blessing to his younger brother on the condition that Ron and his manager would make it clear in their promotional materials that it was Ron Gallagher, not Gallagher himself, that was putting on the show.

After a few years of complying with Gallagher's conditions, Ron began subtly blurring the line between his act and that of his brother. He would often promote his act as "Gallagher Too," a moniker Gallagher felt was insufficiently informative. In some instances, Ron's act was promoted in a way that provided no clue to prospective attendees that they were seeing someone other than Gallagher himself.

Gallagher initially attempted to get his brother to stop these activities by requesting that he stop using Gallagher's well-known Sledge-O-Matic routine. These efforts proved fruitless, and Ron kept touring as "Gallagher Too" while using the Sledge-O-Matic routine his older brother had made famous. Consequently, in August 2000, Gallagher sued his brother for trademark violations and false advertising. The courts ultimately sided with Leo Gallagher, and an injunction was granted prohibiting Ron from performing any act that impersonates his brother in small clubs and venues.

During the lawsuit, all of Gallagher's immediate family sided with Ron over the controversy. As a consequence, Gallagher is now estranged from his parents and siblings.

the new brand gets too successful and the old one sues. the court sides with the old, but the fans and family side with the new

Paul Smith Red Ears - Sacha Baron Cohen

both completely daft

HA!, although Sasha Baron Cohen should probably be a pair of fake evisus with pockets all over the place and gulls painted everywhere.

[ironXcrayon]

Miz and cheap that is brilliant, haha spot on.

except that the analogy is faulty because both gallaghers suck.

True Religion = Ben Affleck, totally over-rated in everyway, totally mainstream, never delivers, liked by ignorant college kids and frat boys, but still (for some unknown reason) is draped all over famous hot women.
