RIP David Brooks

I only wear New Balance because Nike was a goddess in a Greek culture that practiced slavery.

holy shit he needs to be punched in the mouth

new balance also the choice of the discerning white supermacist for a while there iirc, makes u think

lol like there was ever a second of doubt that Brooks wears chunky white New Balance

kinda figured him for and1s tbh

he might be enough of an 80s yuppie to rock khaki shorts and loafers w no socks

hell I do

Yeah but you can pull it off

after extensive GIS research I regret to inform ilx that I cannot find pics of David Brooks wearing shorts, or anything other than a suit

His one admirable quality. No man over the age of 30 should wear shorts in public, and that's being generous.

fortunately, unperson has always been a fount of generosity when Lord Sotosyn's involved.

a shitty columnist over 30 in shorts u say

question: what do you wear when it's over 100 degrees every day so that you dont feel like dying

a: shorts, you fuckin weirdos

Where I live it (currently, but who knows in a few years) doesn't get above the mid 90s, but I wear jeans and T-shirts about 350 days a year. The rest of the time I wear khakis. I limit my time outdoors and keep the air conditioner on at home.

in general, life is better lived when you don't tell strangers what kind fo clothes they can't wear

if you (are a white guy over 30 and) don't wear shorts, your legs look weird and pale and spindly and hairy when you're naked

what a thrilling existence

Home is where my books and CDs are. What does the outside world have that can compete? Other people? Fuck that.

the outside world has shorts

men over 30 shouldn't wear jeans and tshirts almost every day

Feeling v attacked rn

It wasn't until I turned 35 that I got up the nerve to abjure the no-shorts-after-6-p.m. rule.

I will NOT wear band t-shirts though.

my summer clothes are cargo shorts and free t-shirts from when ive donated blood

Fuck u shorts shamerz die in a fire

The danger of a grown man wearing shorts is that he’ll look like an overgrown child, so you gotta be careful out there. Wearing a polo helps.

so long as it's not tucked in

I love how the last 10 posts could be sentences from a Brooks column.

not tucked in yes

otherwise shorts are appropriate all year round

Waiters are 87% friendlier as they hand me the bill and I’m about to decide the tip amount than they are at any other point in the meal.

87% more fatuous when he’s condescending to the help
