How expensive is your...

Heh well lets see...

Majority of the polos I own are either Polo, Lacoste, or Burberry.

Many Polo button ups and numerous Burberry one's as well.

I rock True Religion Jeans and Rock and Republics when I go out.

Love my Versace cologne and Tag watch.

And the Gucci aviators stay on my head in the summer.

This.

My friends joke that I should get a RL logo tattooed on my chest because it's always there on my clothes.

I buy store brand groceries though for the most part. I can't tell enough of a difference in most items to warrant spending more money.

But the thing about expensive clothes is that yes, you spend a lot of money at one time, but I rarely have to replace my clothes because they are made so well. They last such a long time and are made much better than cheaper clothes that might start getting holes, fraying or losing thread.

Plus, da bitches love a guy who can dress well, so long as you don't dress better than they do (in which case you are walking the dangerous line between stylish and the gay best friend).

Don't like Jewelry or watches, and don't spend much on clothes. I do buy expensive shoes though, but more for comfort than for style.

I don't buy a lot of electronic gadgets, as most of them are useless. I also am happy buying the cheaper cars, and my house is nothing special, even though I could afford a bigger more expensive one.

Basically I try to live with expenses as minimal as possible, but I do spend more on vacations as I like to go to more exotic locations. Right now, we are planning a trip to Europe for next year, and maybe Hawaii the year after.

The most expensive item I wear day to day are my Corcoran II field boots, but things like that only need to be replaced every couple of years. I have a pair of Carolina linesman boots that are close to 10 years old and almost look brand new.

In other words, I'll pay well for quality, but I couldn't give a rip about a brand name. I have to admit that I laugh at folks who walk around looking like a billboard.

But, our biggest weakness tends to be gadgets and such.

My friends say I have very expensive taste. I don't consider expensive taste, but more for a taste of quality which almost always is more expensive. I always buy top brands. It is almost always worth it if you can. The moment I have enough for the cheap brand I put my head down and save for another week or whatever and buy what I know will last and won't have to re-buy. I do draw a line though at which you're just paying for the name, however there is always better quality for more price in everything you buy. I wear Ralph Lauren dress shirts a lot not because I have expensive taste but because instead of paying $20 for the same shirt at walmart that will become a shitty color, or fade or lacks proper stitching will only last a year while a nice $50 ralph lareun shirt will last you 5 years.

I call it quality taste, or better yet more 'expensive initial costs taste' because it has a more expensive initial cost but over time you will save a lot more. I bout some radios for a business a while back. I could have dropped 1k on come cheapies, but those were the ones I was replacing after going cheap the first time lasting one year, but I dropped 5k instead. I got fancy ones with a lifetime warranty, best ratings and could get wet/dropped. I am just now, after almost 5 years making my money back and I have yet to use the lifetime warranty. The radios preform flawlessly like new and have another 5 years left in them.

So I am more of a you get what you pay for guy but I won't pay for just a name it has to mean more quality.

Unless of course we are talking presents to women becasue to them a name is the ONLY thing worth buying for some reason :).

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
