Never been a T-shirt type Hoboh. Granted, I wore short-sleeved shirts to work almost all my working life, but always shirts for me for going out too. Back in late teen times fashion was a priority with us. Cufflinks, tie pins and pocket handkerchiefs were top fashion items for any dedicated follower of fashion...oh yes they were! :wink:

That first bit is pretty important. As Bobo says, pretty clear they didn't mean rocket launchers at Walmart.
I like that picture a few posts up... "Defend yourself" by buying a semi automatic rifle with long distance sniper scope..

Is that in case some brown guy gets too near the street, so they can blast him before it's too late??

No, they're for the Hoboh immigrant coastal observation towers. :wink:

And there's the answer :lol:

Cufflinks = think

No cufflinks = think and do...same price, cut out the middle man... ;-)

Shirts with double cuffs ... why ?

Coloured shirts with white collars ... why ?

Shiney suits ... don't even try to explain.
Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

This, although it looks like Alphabetti Spaghetti, is in actual fact a cross section of multi lobal polyimide fibres. The company that we buy this stuff off have given me a tie with a similar pattern to this on it, only black where the picture is orange.

I think that they think I might ever wear it. :conf:

Mmmmm, guess it might not be a good idea sending any of those fibres to a feminist meeting Bruce. :D

You wear a tie?? I now regard them as a very 1950's, white, middle class anachronism. Get with the programme....... .man.

Oh, I absolutely agree. Unfortunately our MD insists on us wearing one when in the office (and a suit). It's ridiculous really, everyone that I deal with turn up in jeans and a shirt.

I'd consider turning up in a shalwar kameez and see what he says. You could always argue that by insisting on a tie, he's denying your cultural rights :-)

Apparently, the average man will ejaculate 4 and a half gallons of semen in his lifetime. I knew I joined Twatter for a reason......

Does anyone know a young shaver who designs websites? My levels of incompetence know no bounds in this respect and I need my website building. And yes, I'm happy to pay for it.
