Never mind the fact that the Live Stream failed during Apple’s Product Reveal! What about Scarf Guy!? Nobody could get over Scarf Guy!
Teehee! Not just me, after all?
I would like to personally thank you, Scarf Guy. I would like to thank you for being a cultural lightning rod. It gives me the warm-fuzzies to know that people your age actually agree with me on this! I can now come out and openly admit it: I think the whole winter-accessories in warm weather thing is lame! I always have!
Up until now I have been keeping this to myself. Because, Lord knows, loudly disapproving of the younger generation’s weird fashion statements is a sure sign of middle age. I mean, I can’t help that I am middle-aged. But still, I try really hard not to act that way.
Now, to be fair, I realize that my generation had its own lame fashions too.
So anyways, this happened…
And at the same time dudes, I know the only reason that you wear what you wear must be because chicks think it’s cool, so I blame them equally.
I’ve seen some bizarre scenarios with this winter-accessory thing, like the time I saw a guy wearing a beanie AT THE COMMUNITY POOL in 90 degree weather (and he was with a cute chick, so there you go). What made it even funnier is when he took it off to go swimming, and his mom swooped in and grabbed it and put it on, while her friends giggled and took pictures of her. Was he steamed! He came straight out of the water, snatched it off her head, and said, “Stop it! That looks dumb!” Then he indignantly put it back on over his wet hair. (No sense of irony, apparently.)
So, yes, I honestly think winter accessories are a really dumb idea three seasons out of the year. And I am telling you from experience that you guys are going to look at your old photos years later, and wince.
But at the same time guys, I get it. All this is not really your fault. If chicks dug kilts, you’d all be wearing skirts.
…Probably in the winter.
