    Threads That Go Astray

    I believe there are valid psychological and social-psychological aspects to describe WHY people post in "I hate..." threads. Let's say I'm as sweet as peaches to everyone I meet because I have great manners and I'm not a negative person. But let's say I need to vent every now and again...

    What did you dream about last night?

    I dreamt that I was living as an undercover census taker in a bad neighborhood. At some point, someone tipped me off that the locals had figured me out and that I should leave. Although I was defiant at first, I started trying to pack all my belongings. Meanwhile, I was receiving threatening...

    Forbidden items in my home...

    Strangers. If I don't know you, I don't want you in my place for any reason. That means if you're a friend of a friend, but I don't know you, then you're staying out on the deck or we're meeting somewhere else. Other than that, I don't care what people bring in so long as it doesn't cause...

    Is chivalry dead?

    Call me crass (no, go ahead) but this is why I stay home. I also adhere to the principle that one should treat their guests when inviting them out, unless you're gathering a large group for some kind of function (but even then...) And because I'm A.) broke and B.) a cheapskate, I just make hot...

    What did you dream about last night?

    This is an interesting thread! I also have very vivid dreams, but lately I've been blessed with murkier dreams. I used to have horrible nightmares, also. You know how I got rid of them? No kidding, I put on a CD of Mozart solo piano pieces while I slept and my dreams went from nightmares to...

    Does vintage clothing attract a rude/violent response?

    lol I had a good laugh at this one!

    Would You Have Said Something?

    I wouldn't say anything. If, for personal reasons, he does not respect the flag, or stand for its beliefs, or if he does not feel tied to this nation, that's fine, and he shouldn't be ridiculed for his beliefs. However, a gentleman should at least show respect by standing in silence until the...

    Seersucker

    Ooh, I think I'll have to keep an eye out for those at the end of this year. I just picked one up at JosABank for their usual $197 sale. Also picked up a few bow ties, a Montecristi (gave my old one to my dad) and a pair of white Florsheims. Now I just need to track down a decent cotton...

    Seersucker

    I really liked the suggestions throughout, lots of knowledge too. Bumping this for all those (like me) that have recently picked up, or will be picking up, their first seersucker. :)

    I saw these after a few emails from Florsheim. They recommended these as an alternative to the bucks for style, but I was hesitant based on nubuck vs. suede. I realize they're pretty similar materials, but I was under the impression that suede was less durable. They look the spitting image, though!

    It's good to see other guys like me who have a terrible time finding shoes that fit. ;)

    Does vintage clothing attract a rude/violent response?

    And I thought you were in the Appalachian Blue Mountains. I've always wanted to see those ever since I heard the song Blue Ridge Mountain Blues.

    Questions and Answers -- General Attire

    Haha, that is craziness. No kidding. I hadn't checked this post until just now, but last night I got home frustrated with my efforts and decided to find a different white shoe. I saw the AE, saw the price tag and had to decide if I wanted to take that leap (I've always wanted a pair of AE's...

    Questions and Answers -- General Attire

    I am unable to locate a pair of size 14D white bucks, under any maker. They all carry up to 13, but not 14. I've tried Allen Edmonds, Aldens, J&M, Clarks/Bostonians, Florsheim, etc., and there simply isn't anything in my size. I have a July wedding to attend and I'd like to purchase a...

    conquering writer's block

    In the movie Pi, Max's friend Sol attempts to help Max calm down by relating the story of Archimedes and the bathtub. I've found this same principle always helps me with writers block. Just when I'm most frustrated and clouded about a story, or when I hit a big block, I forget everything...
