Fashion

I am in no way shape or form the epitome of a fashion guru. I wore jean shorts as my primary form of pants as of about a year ago for God sake. But I can tell when someone is badly dressed. I would like to also think that my fashion sense has gotten a bit more palatable in my elder age, but you never know. I have sort of changed from wearing the same damn thing every damn day, not buying name brand clothing, and not actually caring about how I looked to the complete opposite. I do not wear a white t-shirt and blue jeans or jorts (depending on the weather) every day, I buy name brand clothing, and I actually care about my appearance now. This was me every single day about a year ago.


That is me with a terrible haircut, an awful beard, 40 pounds heavier, a white t-shirt, and jorts... and with Cyclops. Just a typical day in the life of Greg Jackson. This is me now. 


Quite an upgrade wouldn't you say? I think so at least. Hell I even have the trendy hipster glasses now. Doesn't that automatically make me cool? 

The reason I bring all of this up is because something happened last night that I had never seen before. I was out at a bar with some friends of mine and I saw a man wearing one of the dumbest fashion inventions of all time. This is something I have never understood and will NEVER understand in my life why it was made. I am talking about one of these monstrosities. 


The tech vest, puffy vest, or whatever the Hell you want to call it makes absolutely no sense. It's like saying " yeah, the area from my shoulders down to the bottom of my belly button is always cold. I wish there was some kind of clothing that helped out with that." Like honestly, where would anyone ever wear this and would be productive? Some people have said when you go skiing. To this I laugh. If I am going to be out in the cold for hours at a time, there is going to be a lot more clothing worn than a sweatshirt and a damn tech vest. Hell, I wouldn't even spend my hard earned money on anything close to this awful piece of clothing. And this guy at the bar was not an older man either. I would expect an old dude to wear something like that. I would say he was no older than 27ish. So shame on you for going out in public like that.


To the inventor of the tech vest, I salute you for creating one of the dumbest and worst things ever made. It makes my brain hurt even thinking about what it is used for. No one will ever pull it off... except this guy...



Hell, ever Marty was confused. He is literally wearing four things on the top of his body. There is not one reason anyone should ever have to wear four articles of clothing on their upper torso. Am I right or an I right people?
