George Will of the Washington Post and Daniel Akst of The Wall Street Journal think you're a slobbering mass of a human flesh bag incapable of original thought and riding a wave of indifference to wardrobe. Oh and don't forget that everyone is judging you and underestimating your maturity level. Oh and if you are a jeans wearer and you aren't being a pretentious twit in the manner of one driving a Hummer to a Whole Foods store (doesn't make any sense as an analogy to me either) that means you probably wear them for work. Yeah, you're slovenly and likely have a disrespect for others. So if you could manage not to drool on yourself for 5 minutes, try to pay attention here.
If you don't want others judging you and you want to represent your country properly, you should essentially ask yourself WWFAW? What would Fred Astaire Wear? So slovenly masses, stop drooling on yourselves, spit out your chawin' terbaccy and buy yourself wool suits, cotton turtlenecks and patent leather tap dancing shoes because THAT my friends is what Fred Astaire would wear and that's what we, the emasculated, nancyboy mass of American population that apparently doesn't ever see an honest days work anymore should be wearing because, well, jeans...ICKY!

I wonder if either of these asshats has ever been outside the U.S.? Denim is everywhere. For three very good reasons. It's affordable. It's easy to care for and in that sense long-lasting too. Lastly, jeans look good with pretty much anything. So it's an excellent, durable, versatile product, I wonder why so many people wear it? :rolleyes:

I can't get enough of jeans! I love wearing them. I have to date 8 pairs. I can't wear them at work, except Friday, but take advantage on weekends and days off.

You date your jeans? Does your wife know about this? And how do you juggle dating 8 of them at once? I have problems dating just ONE girl! I can't imagine dating 8 of them! And why do you HAVE to date them? Is someone holding a gun to your head?Expert Moron Extraordinaire

I do enjoy it when people shallow enough to allow the fabric on there skin to describe the charachter of themselves and others try to claim superiority of those that dont limit there thinking along the lines of something as stupid a fashion.
dont get me wrong, wanna dress nice all the time? go ahead. but dress nice and claim superiority over others soley because of clothing? and apparently I'm the idiot :rolleyes:
I'll dress nice, or down, depending on the situation. jeans are great because they are durable and work in a great deal of situations and will be a part of my wardrobe for a good long time. if this guy wants to think I;m a slovenly idiot, then so be it.Living Room 2 Channel -

And those that play video games should not be allowd to vote apparently.
What a pompous, self righteous, arrogant son of a ****. -
I just read the second link. I'm not sure who is the bigger ****.

This is how we all should dress apparently.
Someone should tell him that in some circles light activated lenses are considered ugly and tacky. -

That's what I thought as well, it's all good! -
I wonder which author ripped off the other one...There is no genuine justice in any scheme of feeding and coddling the loafer whose only ponderable energies are devoted wholly to reproduction. Nine-tenths of the rights he bellows for are really privileges and he does nothing to deserve them. We not only acquired a vast population of morons, we have inculcated all morons, old or young, with the doctrine that the decent and industrious people of the country are bound to support them for all time.-Menkin

I think George has his rug on too tight.

Denim skirts with a slit in them ARE wicked, evil creations of the devil. I love them on the right babes.

Just cause those dorks dont look cool in jeans then theyre going to dis everyone that does, they should go tell Chuck Norris he look silly in jeans.

I guess I have to read the news posts because you guys have lost me. I'm part of the generation that started the whole wear jeans thing. I even wear them when I'm teaching! So does that mean I don't know what I'm talking about in class?

The key here is not everybody who writes for a newspaper knows
jack about anything. Kinda like the internet."The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbour to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg." --Thomas Jefferson -

I wear jeans to work EVERY day, and work in finance. If I go to see clients face to face, I wear my nice suits, but since we don't interact with anyone face to face on a daily basis, we can basically wear whatever we want.
I guess helping multi-billion dollar companies complete peer analysis or fund managers build out multi page spreadsheets for investment analysis doesn't count b/c I wear jeans to work, and so do 90% of my colleagues.

Does no one here see the irony of these op-eds? What was once a symbol of rugged individualism has become a uniform of conformity. Don't get me wrong, bluejeans are practical and easy to care for, but their symbol has faded over time (no pun intended)

Symbol my butt! I wear them because they are comfortable and last.:D
I really don't care what anyone else wears. I USED to be a rugged
worker be in my teen years on the farm. A day of work tlike that now
