Judging people on what clothes they wear.

If I see you in one of those "tapout" t-shirts I don't think you do MMA, I think you're a rough fat bastard.

Is this a "what I think of you if you are wearing X clothing" thread or a "I judge people for wearing X clothing VERSUS Don't judge a book by its cover" debate thread?

They are usually cheap on sportsdirect.com. Maybe people get them because they are cheap?

I got a nice Everlast hoody because it was cheap. All I know about boxing is to bet on the black guy. Unless it's Hayes.

Covers are actually for judging books.

If you are wandering around with your track pants tucked into your socks, and are not currently in possession of a bicycle, then I'm going judge you as a wanna-be boxer with an aversion to work, and probably a gurrier.

Got asked to leave a cafe once when I was in ordering a coffee, in fairness I was just back from a match so was wearing the trakkies tucked tight into the socks, but I was definitely judged on my appearance because I know the 2 women combined behind the counter combined salaries wouldnt be the colour of mine. Pissed me off actually

Bloke wearing tracksuit in café disparages waitresses. :rolleyes:

Weirdly enough, when I first came to Holland I thought all the men were homosexuals because they work brightly colored tight pants and faded salmon shirts with pointy brown shows.

I saw some kids wearing clothes and thought they were gangsters or something.

Now my radar is totally banjaxed and when I visit Ireland I find myself saying "Good evening young sir" to some guy in a Reebok Tracksuit, Nike Runners with a Stylish gold chain and an earring with gelled hair and a peaked baseball cap standing next to a knackered old Toyota Starlet.

I have been mugged multiple times.

They judged you on your dress but you judged them on their income?

You look worse, frankly.

Similar thing happened to me when I lived in the IFSC, went into Lagoona to get a bite to eat after a match, was wearing tracksuit bottoms and a hoody (not socks tucked in, never ever done that) and was asked to leave. I never went back again and I didn't judge the staff, they were just following orders.

If a young person has a beard I generally see them as trying to mask the fact that they feel their masculinity is under threat by growing something "rough" and "manly".

I do feel bad for it though.

Kinda..

I never judge a book by its cover.















I only judge on what is underneath

I find myself in awe of people who can manage to wear a completely different outfit almost every day of the week.

A fair proportion of the people I work with do.

I know it's somewhat silly, but it also makes me a bit self conscious about not caring as much to make such an effort, and I sometimes wonder if it's something I'm being judged for.

Micky Dolenz

I wear pyjamas a lot. Now, you would probably look at me and think I sleep a lot. I don't. Not with all the speed I do be taking.

Lapin

If people didn't judge others by what they wear, there would be no such thing as a multi billion £ € $ fashion industry.

So what age is it that you're allowed grow one without being judged?

I don't think you were thrown out because of your appearance at all.

I'd bar you too on the grounds of having an obnoxious self entitled attitude towards the staff in the place.

When they can actually grow one instead of a bit of fluff on their chin and upper lip.

Shakepeare.

From Hamlet.

Advice given by Polonius to his son Laertes as he embarked for college.

Other well known advice in the same speech includes the phrase 'Neither a borrower nor a lender be'.

They asked you to leave in an act of discrimination?I would have called the guards immediately.

Every girls crazy bout a sharp dressed man:cool:

Galwayguy35

I've noticed townie young fellas wearing wool hats on warm summer days occasionally over the past few summers.

Maybe they think it's fashionable and cool but it seems a bit silly to me.

If I see anyone wearing a GAA jersey in a foreign country, I can tell not only that they're Irish, but also what county they are from

Scarf worn indoors without coat = twat.



That is all.

I can tell that wherever they are going is probably a place for me to avoid.

Any time I walk through B&Q getting stuff, people ask me to help them and measure things etc etc. I.E. I look like I work there. I need to dress better.

Excellent point, a man should be judged by the colour of his money, not his clothes

Ha I'm completely naked. So lets see you judge me now. Sure you may call me a pervert, but you don't know if I'm a high class debauchee or just some common degenerate.

I don't know why people wear sports clothing when not playing sports, exercising, gym, etc.

Also mainly women but the odd fella wearing their PJs in public. WTF is wrong with these lazy people.

For me, it's scarves. Any bloke that wears a scarf* is a bit of a ponce.

Because they're comfortable?
Because they paid money for them?
Because they like how they look?

Because some people do not need different sets of clothes and styles to conform to your expectations?

It's a beard that wears thick glasess, skinny jeans and drinks craft beers. Those type of beards.

If I see a grown man in a tracksuit not engaging in exercise I do judge them, as immature. People should grow out of that by the age of 14.

Many of the very same Irish lads abroad wear provincial rugby jerseys around the place but for some reason it's always the GAA jersey that gets the flack on boards?
