I will buy whatever makes me look good and I feel good wearing as long as I am not going broke and have enough money to comfortably pay for my responsibilitys. Some people like shoes, I like my t-shirts, it’s money well spent if you’re spending it on something you enjoy. And that shirt comment was a joke lol, obviously I wasn’t getting comments because of a shirt I was wearing.[/quote]
Sure it’s not part of the culture? You’re a self-proclaimed MMA aficionado/“fighter”, that culture always seem to be sporting an affliction shirt (over-priced poor quality).
And as was said earlier, just because you look good in spandex, doesn’t mean it needs to be worn in public. I assumed the shirt comment was a joke.
Just because money is spent on something you like does not mean it’s well spent. I see a guy who works at the local grocery who has the latest and greatest of cell phones, gold teeth, shoes that probably cost way too much (and look retarded in my opinion), yet he has to use food stamps at the grocery store and I’ve heard him talking about how his kid “is just going to have to go to his mothers to eat this week.” So he likes his watch, his phone, his gold teeth, and his trendy shoes, you tell me, was it money well spent?
EDIT: Wow I rambled on a lot there. Put in some line breaks to break it up.[/quote]
Disagree on “Poor Quality,”
And that dude is a bum, most important part of what I wrote “I will buy whatever makes me look good and I feel good wearing as long as I am not going broke and have enough money to comfortably pay for my responsibilitys.”
And to answer the above dudes question of it being fucked up that I lied about fighting, well that seems to be the thing these days, everyone does MMA, everyone can kick anyones ass so when some bum asks me if I fight, yeah I’ll have my fun and be a douche. No I’ve never stepped in the ring and have been judged on my ability, it’s not one of my goals. Yes most of my cardio comes from boxing and kick boxing work, I can absolutely handle myself in almost any situation, fact is though, it doesn’t interest me like bodybuilding/powerlifting does and I don’t see myself competing in a fighting sport anytime soon.[/quote]
Fair enough, your idea of quality and mine differs and your desire to spend money on things I find worthless is your decision. It’s kind of like when I spent money on POGS back in the day (if anyone actually remembers those). Man I wish I had that money back.
As far as being able to handle yourself in almost any situation, it’s usually attitudes like that that get people killed in bar fights. The beer bottle to the head and the broken pool cue through the gut does a good bit more damage then a fist…any anyone can use them. I’ve seen big ass guys who thought they could handle themselves go down real quick. In a bar fight it’s not the person who is the best fighter or the strongest, it’s the person that is willing to take it to the most extreme level of violence the quickest. In the words of DBCooper “slit his throat”[/quote]
Tell that to bas rutten
“you talking to me about my wife, sorry sir I’m gonna have to break your legs”
“I’m gonna bounce his head on the table”
