Look, there are plenty of stupid fasions out there. People wear hats, pants, belts, their hair, jackets, etc that I find to be silly. Hell, I see folks walking around with carefully cultivated expressions on their faces that I think are absurd. Ultimately, though, I don't care. I don't write blogs about it. I don't act offended, as though somehow my race, sex, social class, or neighborhood is being dragged down by it. I don't plan to take pictures of myself copying their style in some ironic in-your-face mockery. Because if I did any of this, I'd be even more ridiculous than the people with the silly styles.
