I've been drafting agreements all day long. My eyes are tired. This place helps relieve the monotony of all the business stuff I'm doing all day long. I come here to laugh and have fun.



Yeah. I've noticed. It was time for me to start kicking some sand around.

Don't give up your dayjob at the drive thru window, boy.

Because those are my work clothes, that's why. :)

The point is this. This is an industry where it doesn't matter what you wear to be in this industry. Credentials are measured in dollar signs, not clothing or initials after your name. You'd be surprised how many successful, highly successful high school dropouts are amongst those who have post graduate degrees.

What we wear might not be acceptable to certain clubs. When that happens, and I've seen it happen....those webmasters head on back to the Venetian, plop down several thousand dollars and rent a suite, open it up to those who don't care about a dress code and party until the wee hours of the morning.

Buddy who are you trying to impress? Girls?

Go impress as many gold diggers as you want.

When you have money and power you dont need to show it off, only wannabes do that.

Why don't everyone just admit that they have absolutely no taste.

One can get rich, but class and taste are a totally separate thing.

Cultureless fucks.

There.

I see. A pre-requisite to having money and power is a desire to look like you have nothing. I suppose to be successful I should:


1. Stop showering
2. Dress in the cheapest, most ill-fitting clothing possible
3. Stop exercising


I thought pride was only abandoned by content? I suppose nobody is safe in this industry.





As far as gold diggers and such, I don't spend much money on women. I'm pretty cheap when it comes to that. :) I bet the guys that dress like shit and have absolutely 0 desire to keep in shape probably have to spend alot more money to keep women around than I.

I agree. I don't think I'm a fashion fucking icon, but I believe that I try to look good.

O-k.

I'm a dropout myself, and I make more than all of my graduating class. ( Save for a few who have taken over the business of their parents. Perhaps there are a few others who make more, but from the little research I have done, nobody is making more. Not that I've bragged about it, I was just curious to see how everyone turned out )

I'm shocked that so many people in such an industry based on vanity, would ignore their own appearances. We're not talking anything normal here, folks. We're talking stand out of a crowd type of bad haircuts, poor clothing, and terrible postures. Come on now, are we webmasters, or players of Magic: The Gathering during lunch hour?

How many webmasters would goto a nightclub in the first place? Alot of them aren't exactly socialites. Renting a suite and paying some girls to come party with them is exactly what I would expect to happen.

When you're trying to look good, what if someone thinks you look bad on the attire you choose and judges you.

Huggles

?

I thought this was a debate.

You fucking geek :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Huggles is a fucking gallery submitter, why are you people letting him get you so worked up?

LOL

Questions are ended with question marks, not periods. Should I debate with someone who cannot use the language we're debating in?

Worked up? Not really. He/she/it makes me laughs reading his replies.:)

Is there something wrong with submitting galleries?

AD&D gold box games, baby.



At least I don't dress like I play them still. :Graucho

whoever started this topic is a fucking douche. people will where whatever thef uck they want to wear you idiot.

And, I have a post graduate degree. And, in this industry, it matters not.

There's a reason many of us choose this industry and it's not to be a fashion plate. :)

I've got to go nurse my honey's horrible hangover...from our night out on the town....wearing jeans and tee shirts...LOL.

You have a good one, huggles...see you at the next conference. I might just be the one in my slippers, jammies and sweats.

Hey what's wrong with being a gallery submitter?

It may not make you a millionaire, but it pays better than nearly any day job you'll get with a degree.... (NEARLY any) and it takes less time.

If you read really carefully, you'll notice that nobody's picking on "jeans and tee shits" ... Let me ask you this: Were those jeans and tshirts washed in recent memory? Have you had a haircut in the past few months?

Nobody ever said dress to the nines ... The original point was, more or less, how can people not have even basic hygene?

Looks like some people on GFY care what they look like.

Sorry for my stupid mistake. Post a picture of your attire that you think looks good and I probably can find fault with it amoung others.

You are missing the point, if you judge people by the way they dress, you are a fool.

BTW, I am not debating you....you were debating another poster.

Depends on the situation. Like I said, when I'm at the Venetian I'm not going to wear clothes that look like I'm going to paint my house. Also, when I goto dinner, I'm not going to wear camo pants and a wife beater.

No, if you try and say you absolutely never judge anyone on appearance, you are a liar.

:winkwink:

At a restaurant, that I get dressed up for a man in a bathrobe with sneakers gets the best table. Money talks?why concern yourself with other people dressing habits?

Please correct my punctuation :)

Maybe they don't want to get kidnapped :1orglaugh

yeah, while im glad that you took time off from queer eye to help us all out this thread is useless without pics of what we should wear

You're all over the place here, Huggles....

Your original post had nothing to do with showering or hygiene.

"Why do most of you dress like:

1. Your mom thinks your 12 when baggy shirts and sweats were in style

2. You shop at Value Village

3. Your appearance does not matter, you have charisma 18 and a pendant of human charming +3

This is an observation over the course of the last year or so. Some webmasters actually seem to care what they look like, alot however, do not."



From this we've gone to hygiene and hair cuts.

Since I have fabulous red hair, I'm very vain about it and I go to the hairdresser often. I also get my nails done and pedicures. But, for me, that's a reward for the sixteen fucking hours I put into this business day in and day out. Others buy clothes.

My $200. hairstyling, with highlights, costs more than my six dollar tee shirts. I spend more on pedicures than I do on clothes. The two carat diamond on my finger goes as well with sweats as it does with a gown...which, by the way, I bought for my first Vegas adventure....and, recently, just sold on Ebay, with the tags still attached.

You also talked about shopping at Value Village, as if that's a crime against humanity. it is; but, that's beside the point. :)

I think your third point was probably the most interesting. To some, appearance is ALL that matters. Hardly a way to judge whether or not that person is someone with whom to do business. To others, appearances are deceptive. The guy who is wearing a torn sweatshirt, with shaggy hair may be someone for whom you want to do business.

War Child. I read really really carefully. Perhaps you should read really really carefully. The original point, more or less, was why does everyone dress like slobs? Read the first post. I have it above.

But it doesn't, you pansy metrosexual fuck.

I'm hardly a pansy, or metrosexual you fucking slob.



I'm just curious as to why "soup kitchen" is so in among the webmaster crowd.

What matters from the above?


If you're hardly a slob, what point are you trying to make about other webmasters?

Looking like you've bought the cheapest, most ill-fitting clothing from 1979 and had left it on your bathroom floor for 3 days before wearing it IS a crime.

I think given the choice I would rather talk to someone dressed a little more presentable first.

Impress yourself, not others.
When I walk into a room no one takes a second look. When I discuss business with others they tend to listen.

yap. !
