Fending Off The Seventies

Lileks has some appropriately cruel and hilarious commentary on the latest fashions.

For young men, true high style: $30 John Deere shirts or T-shirts with typefaces from the “Mork & Mindy” era, worn with a brown knit cap I’d wear only if I were missing part of my skull and wanted to keep my brain warm en route to the hospital. The shirts remind you of that glorious era of grunge. Plaid. Ratty plaid. You remember grunge! That’s when Dame Fashion required healthy, happy people to look like they had inherited the contents of a Salvation Army dumpster filled with the clothes of heroin-addicted lumberjacks.

Enjoy the whole thing.
