JD: Just stand up straight and blur your face out like you used to do. Your stances now make you look so frail and Benjamin Button-y.

How do you guys take these pictures? Do you have another SF member take them or do you do the whole tripod + 10 seconds to pose deal? I think I will start posting my fits

I felt I was following all of the 'rules' as far as WAYWT is concerned.

I am 24, I didn't finish college, I'm married. I don't live in a city where it is convenient to bike,take a taxi or use public transportation... if I did I'd have a new pair of shoes or a pair of jeans every payday like some of you lucky ones in major cities and along the coasts instead it goes in the gas tank or towards a credit card bill.

I am not a baller, i probably won't ever be. And from time to time I look like what I am, and from time to time I look better. When I have the time I post a fit, because this forum is a means of entertainment and a distraction.

It isn't a church, and it isn't a ******* country club.

If I missed some memo and I don't belong here I will leave, I was under the impression at least a handful were in a similar predicament, understood, or at the very least were willing to tolerate my presence here.


Again, if I am mistaken I'll find some place else to go.[/center]


Allow me to toss on my amateur psychologist hat for a few moments. Even though some of the disparaging remarks about your lifestyle pictures have been out of line, your general attitude on SF over the last year or so has been overly sensitive and at times, confrontational.

Going through older threads, I know this wasn't always the case. But based on some of your postings and started threads in recent memory, you seem unsatisfied with certain aspects of your life. In turn, you seem to project the angst caused by that on SF.

You're gonna do what you're gonna do, but maybe it's time to cowboy up and ask yourself what action you can take to change the things in your life that are causing this cynicism.

you had some cool stuff going on for a while, now you just look like you hit up Winners a few too many times. Just because its a brand name like McQueen doesnt make it look good. This is the product of too much money and not enough sense. Also, were you not able to simply take another photo once you realized you pooched this one?

The pants arent bad, the shirt is definitely what I was hating on though.

It's the hunched over shoulders that seem to bother people. It's not a big deal for me because I've liked your recent fits and I'm able to separate the clothes from your body language, but I can see why people don't like it. But it would be awesome to troll by continuing to post progressively worse pics over the next few months until you just start doing WAYWTs with you curled up in fetus position.

I definitely posted two of them a few months ago, but no one noticed.
