1938: Length of Ties
Can look phallic in a very nasty, ugly, gross way. As well as silly. -
The people I've met from the Lounge.
I would like that very much, Carter, and you are one of the most impressive people on this forum!- Dr Doran

The people I've met from the Lounge.
Well, today I met another person from the Lounge, and it has caused me to look back on all the people I've personally met from the Lounge, and all the people I've met only online from this place, and I have to say, I'm pretty damned impressed. Today I met someone from the Lounge I never met...- Dr Doran

It`s all been done before.
Yes, I find plenty of threads here on cheap vintage, and that draws me to this place as well. I agree that some of the threads here can be obscure, on recondite matters and drawing out distinctions that matter very little to me; but there needs to be a place for people interested in that sort...- Dr Doran

Surely we all agree that everyone has raised some good points here, including Bburt and Nicemouth.- Dr Doran

It`s all been done before.
Almost everything I find is very cheap or free ... I spend fairly good money on a (very) few things, but even those are usually things I find on discount ... and that's what works for me. But part of this seems to be about feeling beaten in the competition of collecting vintage and that is a...- Dr Doran

What art is in your home?
Vitanola -- beautiful, and welcome to the Lounge. Warbaby -- a lovely impressionist piece. Sometimes it is necessary for me to see a non-cliched piece of art from a school or style of art to see that style's beauty, if you know what I mean -- the standard textbook chestnuts get so old and...- Dr Doran

Plain-toed, brown, leather-soled Oxford?
Thank you, Bigshoe. That's very interesting. If there is one thing I love about the Lounge, it is that we get insider information on the things we love and their manufacture.- Dr Doran

Your favorite Scotch? Your Favorite liquor in general?
Mrs Merl, chime in all you want! Pietro, I agree. Some things are best introduced slowly ... too early is a mistake.- Dr Doran

Plain-toed, brown, leather-soled Oxford?
Sorry, I should have specified: by buying several pairs of $5 wingtips at Goodwill, I meant several pairs of high quality $5 wingtips in good condition. Not several pairs of poor quality wingtips in poor condition.- Dr Doran

What's the Funniest Things to happen to you in vintage?
But you still need to see HOSTEL to fully "get" the fanny pack thing. You and R. can come over (and J. can give you back those fine items you lent her). I own it on DVD. Fanny pack madness ... [he said, rubbing his hands together wickedly; anything to get people to watch HOSTEL with him]- Dr Doran

What's the Funniest Things to happen to you in vintage?
Love the term "current excrescence." This story is just brilliant. Khaki shorts, t-shirt (no doubt with something written or depicted on it) and a FANNY PACK. The very best, funniest comment on fanny packs occurs in the fine artistic film HOSTEL. (The film is gory, but the fanny pack thing...- Dr Doran

MY LATEST HAIRCUT.
My hair looks nothing like Joan of Arc. Then again, I am neither female, Christian, nor medieval, so it is no surprise. (I am French, though.)- Dr Doran

Plain-toed, brown, leather-soled Oxford?
Buy used wingtips (vel sim) at your local Goodwill. Buy several pairs. $5 each; rotate them throughout the year. Cheap. Good. I swear by it.- Dr Doran

The best (in the sense of most genuinely appreciative) comments I get on my 1940s ensembles are from black people.- Dr Doran
