Read this letter in The Daily Mail this morning....

"I spent my working life on a building site in scruffy cement and paint-spattered jeans and shoddy scuffed footwear. I couldn't wait to get home to shower, shave, put on my sharp suit and my one pair of highly polished shoes and hit the town.
Now my Grandson wears a sharp suit to work, comes home and doesn't even bother to shave before putting on a ripped and paint-spattered....but brand new....pair of top-label jeans that cost more than £80, a moth-eaten T-Shirt and a pair of trainers that should have been binned years ago and then he's off out to hit the clubs.
And then there are the girls. They wear a damn sight less to go out clubbing, even in winter, than my wife wears to bed during a heatwave. Phew!"

The last bit....

But I totally agree with the bloke about ripped jeans!!!! :-X :-X

But even worse....in my book....are the 'distressed look' jeans!!!! :-X :-X
I feckin' hate them!!!! :-X :-X :-X

Am I getting old???? :?

What are you doing reading the Daily Mail?? It's right reactionary rag!! It's read by the same people who ring in to Jeremy Vines show on Radio Two to say that crime shouldn't pay and we should bring back hanging. Someone on there wanted to give Saddam Hussein to the people of Iraq so that they could tear him limb from limb.

That's progress hey?? :sweet:

The Daily Mail merely perpetuates false-consciousness. Come the revolution and all that shit...

I read the Daily Mail



PS. I can't get with this torn jeans crap either, and I refuse to pay money for clothes that are already knackered- especially as the intention is to replace my own clothes which are already knackered!!

Well at least it would be quicker then the farce of a trial thats going on at the moment

And the Daily mail is the wankiest of all wank papers in the World, who has a big bonk for anything that doesnt reek of middle England glad handed wankism
I fooking hate the shite stick of a rag

You don't say? I'd never have guessed!

But is it smart to be scruffy????

i class myself as scruffy smart
and i distress my own jeans,,,

You will when you are working for me Smiler.

I always wanted to go to one of those black tie do's wearing a black tie.

Just a black tie, like..........

ripped jeans can be alright

it's these gay t-shirts with holes in them and paint splatters, or jeans with paint splattered on them--- all totally stupid and look rubbish

I've got a couple of pairs of old 501s that I wear for decorating that have holes in and are splattered in paint. Are they cool now?

Shall we all have a dress dead scruffy day for Pools on Saturday?

You just come in your normal clothes Dibble.

And then in your pants when Robson scores a blinder.

I went to a lesbian party in March where all men attending were required to wear a dicky bow. That was the only stipulation. Nothing about wearing trousers, shirts, or any of that shite! Nor any instructions as to WHERE the dicky bow was to be worn.

If it had been a "straight" party would you have felt obliged to include that in your last comment?

Now now, don't get impudent!
