I love how intense these threads get.
Anyways, what I don't understand is how kids can go out and spend 1000$ on their new oakley setup (something that is worn far less cumulatively than a pair of jeans), and everyone on NS is all over their dicks for it.
I guess it's because 90% of the kids on here
A) don't care if they wear something is fits them well/is good quality (designer)/ settle for the zellers special.
B) legitimately can't afford nice jeans/ have other spending priorities (which it totally respectful)
C) go into "homo clothes money spending" mode.
honestly, look at it as consumerism is general.
take cars, for example. you can go out and buy an 80k$ benz, or a 5k$ hyundai. both will arguable do the same thing (move your ass from point A to point B), but it's the experiential, qualitative differences between the two that justify the price difference. Same thing goes for pretty much anything else out there (houses, ski equipment, electronics, you name it).
anyways guys, keep it up. it's great reading these flail-posts.
