Bicycle shorts are for suckers.
Shameless, tacky, be-spandexed suckers.
No one wants to see that.
White bicycle shorts should be grounds for justifiable homicide.

Mine are black. I'm quite the cycler. As if Jean shorts and Cargo shorts aren't tacky.

cargos' the way to go.

I ride a bike everywhere I go, weather permitting. No spandex for me!
Bikewear is so hideous.

I ride bike for the sake of riding bike rather than for transportation. I prefer going at night. The spandex is quite ugly but I wouldn't be caught dead in fuckin cargo shorts.

I have a Team Spandex T-shirt. A friend and I started our own bike team and even had these shirts printed. The front has a drawing of a middle-aged pot-bellied man in a spandex suit on a bike. The back says, "Just say no to Spandex."

Over a certain age, men shouldn't wear spandex.

Is 15 over that age?

Depends.

But generally, odd and ugly things don't start happening to men's bodies until after around 40.

Pre-birth is acceptable.

I concur wholeheartedly with Savage Clone on the spandex issue. If one were meant to wear unattractively tight, skin-pinching clothing whose sheen accentuates each fold of a flabby ass, we would simply walk around naked.

On the sandal issue, both sexes are permitted to wear sandals; however, it is EXTREMELY rare to find fashionably acceptable ones. My rule (for casual sandals mind you; whoring it up is a different story) is that they ought to be as least ornate as possible. Sandals that resemble shoes a. look orthopaedic and retarded and b. defeat the purpose of wearing sandals.

i was thinking about how this related to the issue of shorts. i'm wearing shorts right now, although i rarely wear shorts outside the house (unless i'm at the beach of course).

anyway, as far as sandals go, i think it's fine to wear them if you live or were born in the southern hemisphere/africa, and are not white.

Toilet & Bowels · 07.21.2006, 06:38 AM

that guy probably wearing khaki cargo shorts too

Toilet & Bowels · 07.21.2006, 07:09 AM

no, i reckon he has a job in finance and he sees himself as being more bohemian than his colleagues

Toilet & Bowels · 07.21.2006, 07:22 AM

i reckon he bought that turtle when he went on his £10,000 backpacking & surfing holiday round australia
