I don&#8217;t know whatever happened to the aspiration of being James Dean\/Steve McQueen cool, and I can&#8217;t bring it back by myself. In lieu of that we could master the basics of getting dressed in the morning. I know that sounds condescending, but I work in Olympia, and&#8230; y&#8217;all need some help.<\/p>\n<p>So let&#8217;s start with the simple stuff:<\/p>\n<p>1.<a href=\"https:\/\/jagallien.wordpress.com\/2017\/11\/21\/pet-peeves\/\">&nbsp;Match Your Leathers (see item #2)<\/a><\/p>\n<p>If nothing else, you should ask yourself &#8220;why are my shoes black and my belt brown? Why don&#8217;t I just buy things in one color?&#8221; Let laziness be your guide!<\/p>\n<p>2. Don&#8217;t Tuck Your T-Shirt Into Your Jeans<\/p>\n<p>Yes, I know that you were raised on a farm and that you&#8217;re prematurely forty years old. I know that this &#8220;internet thing&#8221; is new to you. But I&#8217;ll take the time to chisel it onto a stone tablet to let you know that if you&#8217;re going to tuck it in, it should have a collar.<\/p>\n<p>NOTE: You may\/should tuck it in if it&#8217;s an <strong>under<\/strong>shirt.<\/p>\n<p>3. No Fedoras<\/p>\n<p>Everytime you wear a fedora, God reaches back in time and re-cancels <em>Firefly<\/em>, just to punish nerd-culture as a whole. If you seriously think a staple of 1920&#8217;s fashion and your anime T-Shirt go together, you should probably ask for help getting dressed in the morning.<\/p>\n<p>4. Crocs. Seriously?<\/p>\n<p>Fun Fact: When you buy crocs, you directly support terrorism.<\/p>\n<p>5. Slacks + Tennis Shoes<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know what this combo means. Are you planning to go running, but you want to look nice? If that&#8217;s the case, you can stop.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you tired of looking like you do?
