Was it ever confirmed if the dude on the right was Kuuenbu in an even more awkward phase, or is that just the most obvious joke

This perfectly encapsulates that common nerd fallacy of suit = sophistication, without remotely understanding just what goes into making it work. In this guy's case he's raided the op shop and has combined poorly fitting formal and informal wear and assumed they will work by themselves. A black shirt almost always indicates formal. A shirt should generally be the palest thing you wear to contrast with the rest. Jackets with jumpers are nearly impossible to pull off as they evoke an image of an old man. If you must, the general rule is to go with an open necked shirt - no tie as it's smart casual. The silk tie clashes. Pocket squares should match the shirt or a subtle highlight from the tie - but not match the tie exactly. Simple off white would match the dots in this case. But again shouldn't belong. The cap. Traditionally the flat cap is associated with outdoors and working. In the upper-class it was seen as casual wear. Anyone could wear one. Your jacket's materials would change to match the casual informal wear - tweed or twill. If he ditched the tie and jacket he'd be moving into the right place.

It's he couldn't decide between Newsies Christian Bale and Bruce Wayne Christian Bale and just decided to mix his favorite of the two. One thing I learned from European foreign exchange students is they think most Americans dress like poo poo when they attempt to 'dress up' for social or formal events. Most all of the pictures in this thread seem to be American/Canadian people and that weird looking pig guy from Europe.

Also, Christian Bale could wear nothing but ten thousand fedoras all over his body in a giant fedoracloud and I would be okay with it. Best manskirt I like that the panties are sticking out because I like that this person bothered to wear panties in the first place. I am sad now.

It's not wearing grandpa clothes, it's wearing grandpa clothes with absolutely no attention paid to proper fit or color coordination so you end up looking like a Goodwill exploded.

Double Plus Good posted:I think the culprit for a lot of these fashion and grooming disasters is dude-to-dude fashion advice. Guys egging other guys on to make lovely style choices. I can't tell you how many times I've seen a guy on my facebook news feed asking "Should I shave my beard?" and a chorus of girls saying "yes, it doesn't look good!" But one bro comes in and says, "no way man, shaving is for pussies!" and the guy is swayed to keep his horrible pube-forest neckbeard. I can't really understand why beards are to rife amongst uh, neck beards. You'd think that traditional wet shaving would play into their 'classier times' fantasy and their obsession with blades.

inspire posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddjZf7Nqbo0 Yeah I doubt I'll ever make it more than a couple minutes into this but I think his chances would be better if he had the tribble growing out of his skull removed. E: Okay, I made it to the second "attempt" when he tells the girl that he "doesn't run into girls he likes often." Literally after hitting on another random girl he just saw on the street. I think that encapsulates what's wrong with this whole "movement"; these shitbags see women as puzzle boxes they need to say the right things to in order to unlock, even if it involves blatantly lying to their faces.

Really think about that, if these girls don't feel uncomfortable enough there's a guy just awkwardly pointing a camera at them for the duration of this. There's this weird adulation of beards right now, like life is some Dr. Pepper 10 commercial where you aren't a real man unless you've got a huge beard and are slathering yourself in bacon and plaid. Evidence, this super popular vine video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZB8HRrJ0KM It's just like neckbeards thinking fedoras = instant style and class. It's a way to get the reward without putting in any of the work. Some guys think it will give them instant ~manliness~ to have a beard, even though they don't have any other "manly" traits, physically or in personality. And then of course when they've grown their awful looking and poorly maintained beard, their friends shame them into keeping it because "real men have beards!" And it's a way to make themselves feel better when they're rejected in favor of the well-built, clean shaven man. "Well, at least I have a beard! That guy's face is so smooth he could be Justin Bieber, burr." http://youtu.be/3nQwLlFF1As?t=25s Further evidence, this band, "The Beards." I know it's their shtick, but every one of them looks awkward as gently caress with those beards. Lyrics from the song, "There once was a girl, and her husband had a beard, she asked him to shave it off and now she's dead."

They're funny and their songs are catchy and fun, there's nothing awkward about them at all, they're actually making fun of the manly stigma of beards. You can't just take one lyric out of context to make them sound dumb or misogynistic or whatever, listen to all of that song, "Shaved off his beard", and tell me you didn't laugh.

Like I said, I figured "manly beard love" was their shtick (didn't realize it was supposed to be satire), but enough guys actually hold that mentality that it annoyed me anyway. The mentality that your manliness will literally wither off and die if your face is hairless.

Yeah some of their stuff might initially sound like "rah rah beards are manly" stuff but they really are just a comedy band and they're totally in on the joke. Personally I have a beard just because I think I look better with it, not because of any kind of machismo. Thanks to this thread I have become obsessive about keeping it trimmed, clean and short too. I don't want to end up in here some day.

Having a beard isn't the issue if you know what to do with it, and plenty of guys look much better with a bit of scruff or a close beard (Rainn Wilson, for example.) The problem comes in when guys think with a "the bigger the better" mentality, because more beard = more man! So they end up with beards like the guy on the far left of the band, or the one with the glasses. Big, bushy, unkempt beards. Eugh. Double Plus Good has a new favorite as of 19:54 on Jul 2, 2013 |

Bundle of Keys posted:If there's anything positive to say about this; I think his basement looks really spacy and tidy. Get some decor on the walls and set up a mini bar, maybe a pool table too, and it would be a pretty sweet basement. If by "spacy and tidy" you mean "empty, devoid of decoration and looking the same way it did 5 years ago", then yes. There's enough space there that he could have hooked up to look OK in some way, even put some lovely power metal posters up, but it still looks like unleased office space or an unused meeting room in a small business. Bonus image: The thing I don't get about him is that you'd think he'd consider retreating from the internet or at least switch his user name around from forum to forum after his unfortunate wander into infamy, but he kept going, using the same Pokemon/anime/whatever the gently caress Kuuenbu is moniker and, if anything, looks even scarier now. If Dragonforce changed his life, it didn't change much except his barber from what I can tell. I miss Helldump.
