Kard,
I can't tell you what to do, but I think the best advice I can offer you to is to just leave the discussion and let it die down as you are only backing yourself into the stupid corner by continuing to argue this........
different things mean different things to different people, and that why you have many designers who have a loyal following by people who relate to their work while others just say, well, its not for me........
There are a lot of designers work that I like, but would never wear, however I can appreciate its relevance outside to my own personal situation or taste. if you observe at all you will see that I am not the kind of person to buy into the latest trend. Not in my own personal style, nor in my work as a designer
I see a lot of people wearing Rick sneakers, and drapey Julius tops
they look good on them, but I'd never wear it cause its not my style, it would never look good on me. This does not mean that I should suddenly say "hey Ricks sneakers are stupid" or drapey tops are dumb. This kind of thinking and approach is a rather self centered and narcissistic way of viewing the world, where anything that one does not get, is suddenly seen as dumb or foolish.
My comment with respect to Dane, was not simply based on his comment towards the tee, it was a matter of observing that a negative stance with a lack of manners seem to be his natural approach in communicating here (I dont know if he does this outside of the forums). I have never said anything because for the most part his comments were never geared towards me, and i often dont inject myself into other peoples discussions unless I feel like things are going way overboard.
I am not going to disrespect him, but I am simply and sternly saying that for someone like him, who is obviously not a dunce, its a disservice and an embarrassment to his good faculties for him to consistently take this kind of posture in communicating on the forums.........it would be good to see him, and others articulate things better, be more cordial in their comments towards people fits in the WAYWT and such, and stop reducing the forums to a place of bad manners and rude jabs at others.......
