The Pussification of the American Male Demonstrated by a Longass, Boring ****ing Post
Dear Chiefsplaneteers,
I need help. When it comes to dressing myself and looking cool in doing so, I struggle. I've been told the last few years that I dress nicely, but this is ONLY because my wife picks out my outfits for me. Over the years, I've literally had to learn the hard way about apparent fashion "no-no's" by someone pointing out to me how stupid I looked by wearing certain combinations of clothing. In every single one of these instances, I had already worn that clothing combo SEVERAL times and spent the rest of the day thinking about how many people had thought I looked stupid as hell over the years for dressing that way. Examples: A.) I had a girlfriend in high school, who prior to leaving my house for the county fair (ugh), she INSISTED that I did not wear Doc Martin boots with shorts and that I changed into either some jeans or put some sandals on. B.) We had a freaking exchange student from Brazil who had a better sense of our culture's fashion than I do. The first week he lived with us, he said to me, "why do you do this, wearing your socks with sandals? I think this is kind of weird." I was like, "oh, I think that's how we do it in the U.S.A." He was like, "no, it isn't." He was right. C.) I had another girlfriend in high school who insisted that I did not wear navy blue and black together. D.) In my first Senior year of college (I had 2 of them), we arrived at this club and one of my best friends was like, "dude I think it's the funniest thing in the world that every time you wear a black dress shirt, you also wear a brown belt and brown loafers with it." I was like, "what's wrong with that?" He was like, "dude, that is a HUGE fashion no-no. Didn't you know that?!?! I never said anything to you because you are always acting like a jackass, so I figured you were doing it to be funny. Omg Swaff, you can be so stupid." And boy did I feel stupid...I had been doing that my entire life. Obviously, dressing cool does not come naturally to me. So, I got this thing in the mail from SI. They had an offer that I thought was freaking awesome. A one year subscription to SI and a jacket of a team of your choice for $29. You can check out the offer and the jacket here: http://www.si.com/offer29 I generally just disregard mail like this, but I decided to go through with this one and am pretty pumped about it. I'm real pumped about the jacket, for the only Chiefs jacket I have at the moment is a 1990's Starter jacket that my grandma found at a resale shop and bought for me. I don't mind it, but my wife won't be caught dead with me if I wear it, so I never wear it...I'll probably end up donating it...to the resale shop. Here is a pic of the jacket: Is this jacket presentable/cool enough to wear to a game or to wear out in public at the bar while watching the game? I literally don't know, I have no fashion sense and my wife is a Steelers fan, so of course she doesn't think it looks cool. Help a fashionably challenged brotha out. Thanks. Sincerely, rico <3 XOXOXOXOXOXXOXOXO <3 Last edited by rico; 07-06-2013 at 11:09 AM.. Reason: All hail milkman!!!!!!! |

Fortunately for y'all, the red SI logo doesn't stick out like a bright red boil on the Chiefs jacket.

Secondly, I didn't claim they were uncommon. I simply stated that it's not up my alley in terms of how I dress. I don't have anything against people who do wear them, as also stated, my good friends in college wore them...and were able to pull it off, comfortably. However, I wouldn't be able to wear one because I wouldn't feel comfortable doing so (just not my thing) and they just aren't perceived as cool in the rural part of area in which I reside...if I were to wear one out in public, I'd be razzed all day/all night for looking "gay," "metro," or "overly preppy." I realize peacoats are perceived as being more common and cooler in areas that are considered to be "more cultured" than the area I reside in...I've known this since college. I am sure that you and Hamas (although I don't believe Hamas perceived what I wrote in the same manner as you seemingly did) can pull off the "peacoat look" quite well and probably are perceived as looking cool as shit by your peers/acquaintances. |

Screw team jackets in general. I avoid those sports related fashion faux pas by only wearing my authentic #2 Chiefs jersey.

I can't really see it, rico.
Did you cut n paste the photo in? From what I can tell though, I like it; it's different. That's what I look for in Chief's gear, is 'different' -- because i'm not wild about the uni's nor the emblem. but that one looks pretty good. |

That looks like Ronald McDonald jizzed all over a Zebra. Sweet God those are horrible.
In other news, I recommend that Rico begin amassing as many satin jackets as possible. And remember: a "Members Only" satin jacket is the Holy Grail, Rico.
