A good analogy I can think of here is Tim Tebow.

As a man, you don’t need closure.

A girl either wants to fuck you or she doesn’t. A long, emotional conversation will not change this fact.

Girls, however, need to put a man they are dumping into a desexualized box and wrap a pretty bow of closure around it. By participating in the closure process you are helping her tie the bow around your desexualized fate.

around yr desexulized face

There's definitely some sort of connection between this sort of thing and lifehacks about putting nuts and smarties in different parts of a box

old file cabinet just make me inexplicably furious

R'LIAH (goole), Friday, 23 August 2013 15:18 (twelve years ago)

haha yeah i scoffed too but i will admit it's a pretty clever / effective way to display the product

your authentic guitar playing self (elmo argonaut), Friday, 23 August 2013 15:20 (twelve years ago)

I mean

do ppl not realize you can make yourself a pocket square for like a dollar

OH MY GOD HE'S OOGLY (DJP), Friday, 23 August 2013 15:24 (twelve years ago)

i was about to say "hey vintage fabric is collectible" and so what if there's a file cabinet but then i looked at the pricing

YOU FOOLS PAY OVER $2.50 for a comic book (forksclovetofu), Friday, 23 August 2013 15:26 (twelve years ago)

i don't think they realize they can make one themselves

if they do there are probably a good portion who think making their own pocket square is below them for either class or gender reasons

and also the price point is exactly right for stimulation the aspirational impulse of their target demo

your authentic guitar playing self (elmo argonaut), Friday, 23 August 2013 15:30 (twelve years ago)

yeah like i'm gonna put a $2 pocket square in a $3000 suit COME ON #gobbluth

Owning the pocket square is a journey , it surely wont take you a day to perfect the art of working pattern and fabric into an ensemble without blinking . For beginners class i advice you stick to the popular flat fold , its easy and personally my favorite . The flat fold in my opinion compliments the lines in a suit better than any of the folds . The flat fold is conservative and sharp , hence it being the go to fold in the corporate world . There are no written rules in the book of pocket squares but it will do you well to avoid the mistake of matching your neck tie with your pocket square like a green horn would . When it comes to color and pattern its best to keep the urge to match them with your necktie on a leash.

folded piece of fabric in your suit pocket, makes you think

what kills me is unlike how to tie a tie, as long as you get the right profile sticking out it makes absolutely no different how you fold one of these lil guys

yeah that ^^ paragraph there is the thing, i love how every dude who has learned a thing or two about getting dressed pretends to be a dang professor about it, maybe 'splaining in all its forms is integral to being a man in the internet age
