I'm thinking about taking my girlfriend to Disney, some good stuff here. Keep it up. I went when I was 12, but I don't remember much.

How long would the ideal Disney trip be?

on a serious note though does anyone tailor their clothes ?

i'm tall and rather skinny so it's a complete pain in the ass to buy a shirt/flannel/sweater that fits long enough but doesn't hang out in the back awkwardly because it's too wide.

i've found american apparel shirts fit true to size but i just wanted to know if it's super time consuming or hard to pick up on altering clothes.

Drop it off, pick it up.

Pretty simple. I get my pants tailored. Obviously they do the measurements too, but it's an easy process. Find a good tailor in your area and you're set.

George Bush and Al Gore review Relationship of Command:

What a stupid review, haha.

The more I think about it, the more I think I'm going to bite the bullet and get a 1 day pass for Lolla to see them. I'd prefer a smaller venue but if news doesn't come of that in the next few months, I'll just get a couple of passes before they shoot up in price.

I say do it, you're already in Chicago and Lolla can be a lot of fun.

Edit: Unless they are doing a 'shows' like the link above hints.

outside of Refused that line-up is a lot of trendy hipster bullshit.

I don't even know what this means.

New and popular acts playing a festival?!?! O M G, call the police!

I'll probably see them at Lolla this year, if I go, but I would hope for a venue show.

There.

I'm wearing a pair of jeans now that I haven't washed in a year.

I just Febreeze them. I don't want them to fade, hah.

Some people say that you can put them in the freezer to get rid of the smell. I've tried that, I guess it works. Doesn't really work w/ my hockey gloves though, vomit.

BTW, if you have boot cut or light colored jeans, throw 'em away. Start over. Dark, slim fits are the best. Not skinny, but like the pics Allison posted.

My whole wardrobe consist of Ralph Lauren (Polo) and Burberry. The classic designer look never goes out of style and looks good on mostyle everyone.

Jeans

Crazy print Polo button up

And some sort of knit sweater

Hell even throw in a bow tie

The best thing you said was 'the classic [designer] look never goes out of style.

Classic is key, stick to that and you're solid!

Shirts w/ a lot of prints on them are not good, avoid prints and large logos. Also, not everyone can pull off a bow-tie, most end up looking like idiots (same w/ people who wear vets and fedoras).

I loved this show.

RIP.

I wonder what Jason Schwartzmen is up to next, love that bro.

This dude is probably better off dressing himself than taking advice from people on here. For fucks sake they are suggesting skinny jeans and band shirts.

whats wrong with band shirts? been wearing em since i was 8. they never go out of style.

skinny jeans on the other hand are just weird. to each their own i guess.

There's nothing wrong w/ band t-shirts, but in general graphic tees are looked down on if you're trying to look a little nicer.

Old Navy's clothes lack a bit of shape, they're kinda boxy. As the Gap brand goes up the quality gets a little better...

Banana Republic > Gap > Old Navy

Another thing I forgot to mention above, find some fashion blogs that you like (Tumblr is great for this) and follow them, find styles that suit you and go from there. One of my favorites:

all of this is true.

however, i can't really afford clothes in BR. and only buy in Gap when they're on sale.

i will say not to buy cheap jeans. i tried ones from Target just because they were cheap and seemed to fit ok, but after wearing them once they were all stretched out.

from now on, i'm only purchasing jeans from ae. (i realize that these, too, may be considered 'cheap' by those that prefer the $100+ variety, raw denim, etc)

Banana is over priced for what it is IMO.

Gap, I only buy on sale, because they ALWAYS have coupons!

Actually, I rarely buy anything unless it's on sale. That's how I ball out of control.

It's not an end all be all, but it's a decent list. Oops, just noticed that Michael mentioned this above, oh well, it's a good starter so I'll leave it.

The most important aspect is FIT! Seriously, go to a tailor they make a huge difference! I'm short and it's impossible to find pants that fit me well (Outside of Gap.com who sell 28L), so I go to a tailor and having pants that fit well can do remarkable things for your image.

A lot of people think women/gfs/moms/etc are great for picking out men's clothes, but not all of them know anything about men's fashion.

If you want some nice quality clothes for cheap check out the sales section at Lands End Canvas. LEC is geared towards a younger fashion crowd. Sold quality and fits.

Did you guys see the short "Vegas Baby" with Nathan?

I literally just started watching this show 2 weeks ago and found that while looking up news on Nathan.

Ditto, I hated Rudy at first, but I've warmed up to him, he's been awesome in the last two episodes.

She and Him's is kind of a dud.

Sufjan Stevens has a handful of Christmas records.

Bright Eyes has one too.

Forgot about this thread, PM'd.

i really, really want to like this show, but i feel let down every week because it could be so much better.

This right there.

I liked the barn scene, I couldn't pick which one I liked better (comics or show) though. In the comics, didn't Hershel open the barn a bit too early? Kind of made him look like a fool. His breakdown in this episode was great. I agree w/ Juan, thought it was going to be his wife, not Sophia.

At a bar last night they had on one of those music channels that show facts and while 311's "Down" was playing it said that their first show was opening for Fugazi. Mind blown.

Saw this last night, absolutely loved it!

I was in tears during the Nirvana part, never thought I would see the Muppets covering "Smells Like Teen Spirit"

This week's episode wast he first good one since um... before the awful Latino story.
