Jaaakkkeee Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Style guide:++= COOL(Put on an eclipse bomber jacket if it gets hot)Make that jumper yellow and that was me for quite a while when I was a kid. Right up until I had baggy jeans with a chain on 'em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaaakkkeee Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 I'm deeply offended by the Hollister shop. I mean, c'mon. It should just have big glass doors like everyone else. Arseholes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 I hate big logos too. I like Superdry and topman quality clothes, you avoid massive logos and even have plain clothes all together. Although SD are guitly of plastering their logo everywhere on some of there stuff. Hollister offends me a little more knowing that.Superdry is almost made for little skinny people. Their XXL is the size of a medium. It surprises me that people actually think they are a Japanese company though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain America Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 topman quality clothesTopman's tshirts are some of the cheapest made pieces of shit available. The material is really thin and the quality of the stiching is terrible and rips really easily. The only reason it's any good at all is they do like 3 for 20/15 which is only possible because of the cheap worksmanship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davewarden Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 I think it's Hollister that hire people based on their looks or some nonsense, "cool and good looking people". If that's not attaining to some level of wankery then I don't know what is. Yup, they are hired as "models" aswell which I believe makes it super easy for them to sack them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skubbs Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Yup, they are hired as "models" aswell which I believe makes it super easy for them to sack themYeah they do, they have to wear flip flops at all times and there are supposedly foot wipes in the staff room. The manageress used to do her reviews in Costa all the time, she got pissed off when I kept telling her to move on if she wasn't buying anything. I do know their weight has to be controlled and you're not allowed to wear too much make up, so if you get a spot you're pretty much fucked (my old workmate went for an interview there, so I got all the gossip)I hate the smell that comes from the place; they spray each item with their own kind of perfume, so the area around the front door reeks.I do think it's funny seeing 40 year old men wearing Hollister t-shirts when that brand is aimed at teenagers, and it's Abercrombie and Fitch that is for adults. They're both hideously overpriced though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christy Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 And what about the accents? Holy Christmas. I went in once and was met with a faux Amercan "how are yeeoow?". I struggled through five minutes, but didn't see a single item of clothing that looked remotely wearable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surfer_Rosa Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 At the other end of spectrum, American Apparel have similar principles. I'm pretty certain you have to submit photos with job applications for their shops, and it's also run by a pervy dickhead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I struggled through five minutes, but didn't see a single item of clothing that looked remotely wearable.A lot of them are American, they specifically recruited kids from the international school so they had the proper look for their start-out staff. A lot of the kids ended up putting their cv's into all the other stores in union square, desperate for more hours as Hollister wouldn't give them more.

Alkaline Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 I gave trying to buy anything fashionable years ago. I tend to just buy things that make me look like less of a dick and that go some way to fitting me. The husky/tall gent is not adequately catered for on the high street.

There is no confusing an American accent with a Belfast attempt at one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went in once and ended up standing behind the checkout because it was so dark and I couldn't find the way out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gypsum_Fantastic Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Surer and Tsunami have it nail on the head. If you wear sports or sports style clothing in public for anything other than sports. Your a cunt. General rule of thumb there.Nott sure if you wear Converse John or play baseball but they are baseball shoes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teabags Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 I wear jeans that are comfortable. I wear shoes that are comfortable. I wear t-shirts that are comfortable. The only other quality is that the majority of time my t-shirts/hoodies are bands I like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keeno Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 I don't get why people hate Phil Collins so much. After hearing some of his stuff this morning on the radio it's better than most of the guff in the charts at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaaakkkeee Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 I once picked up something i thought was a sausage. And being the great friend I am I split it in two to give half to my friend who was in the garden with me. Breaking open this 'sausage' revealed a god awful smell. It turned out it wasn't a sausage, but an old piece of dog shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keeno Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Is it his music people hate, or do they hate him because he's a bell-end?I was under the impression it was both. For a massive bell end with truly shit-beyond-all-expectations music Mick Hucknall has to be the king Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
