Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.

The following things are not grounds for murder:

Rules:

  1. Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
  2. Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
  3. No bigotry of any kind.
  4. Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
  5. If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
  6. Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

This is an example of more dollars than sense. They look terrible and paid good money for the privilege.

That second guy is one fart away from a public nudity charge.

I’m not a complete fucking bellend.

[–] D_C@lemm.ee 12 points 1 week ago

I'm at 89% on the bellend-o-meter myself at the moment, I'm afraid that if I go over 90% I'll have to dress like them!!

[–] Empricorn 41 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Maybe I'm old-fashioned, but I don't think you should subject everyone in public to having to see the entire shape of your cock and balls in pants that are so tight you can't even walk in them.

[–] solomon42069@lemmy.world 42 points 1 week ago

Well I'm a pervert, and that's a hard disagree from me. Very hard.

[–] HotsauceHurricane@lemmy.one 33 points 1 week ago

"What's preventing you from dressing like this?"

My moderate self esteem.

[–] Asafum 33 points 1 week ago

I can't stand tight clothes especially shirts. There are very few things more annoying and uncomfortable than a shirt that desperately wants to burrow into your armpit.

As for the pants I can't say I'd enjoy needing a changing partner:

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 28 points 1 week ago

What's preventing me? For one, actually having taste in clothing.

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 25 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I am not dressing for you. I am dressing for my own comfort and to satisfy legal requirements.

[–] Aganim@lemmy.world 22 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Men, what's preventing you to dress like this?

The fact that my girlfriend would die from laughter if I did.

[–] Wanpieserino@lemm.ee 7 points 1 week ago

Life insurance for her, buddy

Left guy is fine, I think. Proportional and his clothes fit. The ripped knees are questionable but w/e if he wants to tell us he's on his knees all day I won't judge.

Not wanting to look like Douchebag McDouchebagface is what's stopping people from looking like that.

Also I try not to wear plastics.

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 17 points 1 week ago

Because I don't shop in the kids section.

Walking in with my pants rolled up to mid-calf and the knees busted out like I've been giving head at the local truck stop for the last three weeks. I've got a full head of hair, yet I insist on shaving everything but the crown. I absolutely cannot grow a beard, and I refuse to get a proper shave. I'm wearing a watch in the year 2025, purely to show off how much money I can throw at one of the only allowed men's accessories. Neck. Tattoos. There's a 50/50 chance I'm wearing socks.

The entire cast of the Jersey Shore is lining up to get my number. Everyone else is staying at the distance necessary not to smell the patchouli.

[–] psud@aussie.zone 16 points 1 week ago
  • I prefer to wear socks
  • I used to be fat, so skin tight shirts don't look good on me
  • I like button up shirts
  • In cool weather when I wear long trousers, I prefer not to have my ankles frozen
  • In hot weather I'm keeping as much of my legs bare as available men's bottom wear allows

All in all I don't like that style. I knew a boy who liked that style as a youth, he was a arsehole

[–] slouching_employer@lemmy.one 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Give it about ten years and the popular style will pendulum back to fitted/tight clothing.

Just like it was before the current baggy trend and after the previous baggy trend, which was preceded by another tight trend, which was preceded by another baggy trend, and so on and so on

I wonder how much momentum there is in that pendulum?

I think it started swinging (at least in America) in the 30's. Between the scarcity of the depression and rationing during the war, fashions tended toward minimal. Then in the abundance of the 50's you got big puffy poodle skirts and zoot suits because we finally had a surplus.

[–] PyroNeurosis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 14 points 1 week ago

I've managed to buy clothes since I left the eighth grade.

Dudes look like a still image for a gay fashion themed Sims 4 pack

[–] Bremmy@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The gays probably have better fashion sense

[–] rivan@lemm.ee 1 points 6 days ago

Real ones know gays mostly wear carharts and dickies

Their arms are as big as their thigh. How can you even do that?

[–] cRazi_man@lemm.ee 59 points 1 week ago

By skipping leg day

Because I don’t aspire to drive an Audi.

[–] PNW_Doug@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

Because I'm 55 years old and would—shockingly—even appear more of a buffoon than they?

Seems like a fairly good reason to me.
