What is With These Grown Men Dressing Like Teenagers?


Los Angeles is a funny town. I swear I can't count how many times a day I see grown men walking around in tee shirts, shorts, tennis shoes and jerseys. It's almost as though I've regressed back to junior high or high school. These dudes look like fools, and I'm even more bothered when I see some woman with them who looks just as bad. I was in a restaurant where this guy had his pants hanging so low, he had to walk like a bow and arrow to keep them up, bending his knees every few steps just to make sure his pants didn't fall down to his ankles. It was pathetic. Why this seems to be so popular in Los Angeles, I'm not sure. I think it's due to the gang culture and these O.G. triple O.G.'s feel that it's some sort of status symbol to continue to dress like they're starting riots back in '93. I had someone close to me get very upset when I pointed out some flaws in his attire. He's over 35, so I tried to explain to him he looks silly walking around in jeans with thirty different colors, a huge belt buckle, and tennis shoes. No boo, try again. Ladies we have failed and have let these men think that this is okay. It is not okay. It is pathetic. There's rules to this, I wrote me a manual. Get it together fellas. Pull your damn pants up!!
