What are you wearing today?

[kunk75]

everyone is a fucking napoleon. I'm saying my peace and you're oh-snapping like a teenage girl. seriously....

i'd like to know the people who are holding back and what they want to say but that for the sake of my feelings they have held back. i guess you are the voice of the masses. do you discuss this over drinks or IM?

[Faust]

Kunk, this is exactly what's wrong with you and people like you. You can't handle criticism and simply descend into insults.

[kunk75]

people like me? the non illuminati of sz?

you're going out of your way to say nasty shit (as well as assumed nasty shit others say but keep from me like a secret scroll) but I'm resorting to...nothing really.

it's a coward's game to talk about people going easy on me. not even certain how I insulted you. pretty certain it's the other way around.

your fits are whack is pretty whack coming from a writer.

[Faust]

You seem to hate SZ. Maybe you should leave? Why not stick to styleforum where you can wax about how you hate this place because it's too intellectual.

[kunk75]

never said anything there i didn't or wouldn't say here.

the list of posters i like is a lot longer than the list of posters i don't having women on here with a perspective is nice. there's plenty to like.


things do get over intellectualized here but there are some great posters. just think that offending you and risking banning is bullshit.

I hate sz cause I am having a difference of opinion with you?

[kunk75]

word. not dickriding or anything, but that is the kind of thoughtful and sensible response I would expect from you. If anyone thinks I don;t know I look fucking ludicrous sometimes, they aren't getting me at all.

it appears i'm not going anywhere, so i thought some response to things said so far is in order. mona, i felt that i've communication my appreciations for what you've posted here quite clearly when i thought highly of them, and you're quite honestly one of the most elegant women i'm aware of in terms of personal style.

summer is the off season to me, perhaps to some of the forum's other participants. things get much too warm for layering where i reside and i dread its arrival yearly. having taken my admittedly vague comment to heart quite so much after probably the most consistent amount of praise i've ever given anyone on this forum is.. well, i really don't know what to say to that.

kunk, you're not given deference here because of being 'old-school' or anything, i don't feel, so much as because you honestly do interesting stuff sometimes by wearing things in inventive ways, different from the way originally conceived, and i've to really laud you for that. some of the stuff you've done has been a joy to look at and represented the best of this forum to me. but you should know well, and i'm sure you recognise the fact, that you're oftentimes pretty much fighting against whatever you're wearing, and on occasion the results are comical, which isn't at all a negative thing.

anyway, like i've said a number of times..i always thought the feedback and communication between members on these subjects has been what set the forum apart from the countless others in existence, but we've to remember that the subject we deal with is in fact vanity, however you want to look at it. and when you're posting something beaming with pride only to have someone shoot it down for reasons valid or subjective, quite a few people will take their posts elsewhere.

sincere apologies for failing at that whole sensitivity shebang.

LOL. I don't know why you keep trying to get personal. Do you want to be a martyr? I don't believe in them.

[kunk75]

whatevs. since you've been around a long time, people are holding back, but they overwhelmingly agree with me that you're taking a wack path to a wack argument.

[Spencer]

I should have been in bed 30 minutes ago, but I can't stop hitting refresh!

Will these arguments really ever go anywhere? They sprout up from time to time and seem to get progressively worse. I love a good drama, but that's what work is for. SZ is for information, enjoyment, and (generally) cool people.

It's the internet folks (how cliché, I know). Smoke a doob, pull up some porn and have fun.

[kunk75]

don't stay up for me. going to put on my wack-ass raf pajamas and go to bed.

[mass]

kunk you are mad passive aggressive.

[BeauIXI]

I like that though some people fast to gain the physique enjoyed by Merz or Snafu, Kunk just gets bigger, and wears the same stuff, and, as Merz said, in inventive ways, typically just because his physique does not allow for the intended look, and allows for a fresh take on this shit. I love that the comic element of your fits is purposeful and intended, Kunk, and respect you for it.

Plus, I like the gym fits. takes me back to the Rick athletic period, and who doesn't love a Shwarzeneggerish man in Raf Simons and Rick Owens?

Anyway, it's not his post count I'm praising him for, it's Kunk's signature online persona I dig. Keep 'em coming, big man.

[Sombre]

I'd like to hear the forum's thoughts on what it is that motivates participation in this thread, what individual members hope to get back from the discussion in turn, if anything.

please share what you expect to happen when you contribute, what you'd like to ideally happen here, and where things fall short. and try not to mention carebears or i might have to seriously hurt somebody.

The one time I posted a fit here was to see if my intent was communicated clearly.

funny you should say this, beau.. i always pointed out how kunk's aesthetic always reminded me of stuff in bilal's 'beast' quadrilogy..someone should post up good-quality scans of that in the 'inspirations' thread, by the way..

I never understood why anyone would belittle a muscular man. From a medical perspective, obviously it's better to be physically fit than to deliberately decrease intake to be waifer-thin. I can respect someone who works hard to be in shape a lot more than a chronic dieter who religiously watches every piece of bread just to stay thin.

Maybe this is because some people favor looking good over being healthy....................
