You need to stop worrying about me. Just because I post a message on the internet expressing my disdain for people who dress like slobs doesn't mean you have some keen perspective on my life. This place is one of the few places that I actually let my darker side emerge. The fact of the matter is I don't give a shit about what people wear or do -- I am too busy living my life to worry or care. This is an internet message board and this is a thread about the subject. Your interjections are no more valid than mine.
You don't care about other people, yet you find time to post generalizations about them online? A person who wears flip flops is automatically a jock, and a slob. You are so full of yourself that it's not even funny. Were you picked on in high school a lot? Do you still get picked on a lot as an adult? This is your darker side, HAHAH!
Edit - And no I don't wear flip flops, they are retarded. But I don't give a shit how other people dress, and I don't assume things about them because of how they dress. I do care how people think though, and you are being a child.
I said I don't care how other people LOOK or dress. I never said I don't care about other people. You call me a child -- that's a rather generalized statement to make based on what you know about me, which is based on a very small sampling of posts here. You're right that I have an ego, no I wasn't picked on in high school, no I don't get picked on as a professional adult because I don't encounter many adults who "pick on" each other. What's interesting is that you're riled by my comments so much as to try to deconstruct me and then say that you're so understanding and non-judgemental about how people dress but god forbid you accept someone on the internet bash sweatpants and flip flops. So you're beyond judging people based on materialistic objects yet more than eager to cast judgment upon me based on my drivel on the internet.
Being a child is being supported by a mother, father, one or both and requiring the care and support of a family structure of some kind. Criticizing younger folk for their sloppy dress is far from childish. It's a rite of passage. If you can't handle that, fine. But jumping on me for my half-eyebrow raise at the recent unversiality of causal slovenliness certianly seems childish, if not defensively immature.
