    Depends on the leggings - there are countless types.

    That's a bit hypocritical don't you're basically saying why buy something with an expensive brand when I can get the same thing from cheaper but yet I only buy expensive MAC makeup and pay for the brand name.
    I didn't say I only buy expensive MAC make-up?

    I guess, to be fair, what I don't get is buying very functional plain stuff but with an expensive brand on it, even though the very same thing could be bought for far less and just as good quality. E.g. a plain black hoodie from e.g. A&F or black MAC eyeliner.
    That does seem to be a bit pointlessly label-conscious.

    I think Mac eyeliner is the best. I don't use any other Mac products except one of their brushes.

    Ya but sadly Pauls Boutique make some really good clothes and bags but people don't buy them in Ireland cause all the scumbags go around wearing them even though they're obviously fake and that for some of them Paul's Boutique hadn't even made jackets in that design or colour ever.

    Some brands vaguely irritate me but more on a jocular level when discussing it. Getting genuinely annoyed by it would be a little deranged.

    When it comes to clothing - if it fits me, then I could not give a flying **** about brand. In fact, I would never pay the stupid prices some high names charge for.

    I know we talking about apple and iPhone. I don't mind people owning iPhone, but I hate when some muppet buys ONLY iPhone, ignoring other options and that blabs how iPhone is just the best thing ever. Ironically the same people then change yearly iPhone for the next new one...

    Penneys clothes.

    Only the lowest of the lowest scum would wear it.

    Imagine buying a €15 euro shirt in Pennys when you could have got the same one in Tommy Hilfiger for €315! Absolute lowlifes!!

    Yeh fair enough. Just to me, a black eyeliner is a black eyeliner. Well ok, MAC is obviously gonna be better than Constance Carroll eyeliner from the euro shop, but I'd buy a Rimmel or Max Factor eyeliner before a MAC one as these are good quality without being expensive.
    And add a bit of lube too to help it slide on (a bit of moisturiser or Vaseline to the eyeliner pencil is what I mean of course).

    The Rimmel gel liner is very good, but will not come off.

    Penneys pencil goes on easily but panda eyes ahoy.

    I've tried many, mac and bobby brown are the best I've tried. Mac being a little cheaper.

    Never judge people on labels. Judge them on how they treat others.

    Things like this make me glad I was born male.

    I spend forever in the bathroom every morning just showering and brushing teeth. Would never get to work before noon if I had to worry about lubrication eye liner.

    Fair play, ladies. I just don't think I could be arsed. I would be a hairy, ugly woman

    It's only for nights out for me - brushed hair is as glam as it gets for work. :pac:
    Putting on make-up is actually an enjoyable ritual of a Saturday night. :)

    I see lads walking round here with their fancy cans of Dutch Gold, thinking they're it. I highly doubt it is really Dutch and the gold content is probably waay exaggerated too.

    Haha, it's tough alright :p

    Oh god I don't wear eyeliner to work, I only wear a thing called bb cream which is basically a tinted moisturiser. Going out gets a bit more attention but my make up routine has never changed so it only takes a few minutes to look half daycent :D. I like it though!

    I remember when anyone who wore a Ben Sherman shirt was thought of as a scroate. At the other end it would seem that quite a few daddy's little princesses end up wearing Abercrombie and Fitch.

    Outside of clothes some people feel that Apple worshippers can be a good indication of that person being, well, a bit of a wanker ;)

    What labels and brands (if any) do you judge people on?


    I used PCs for twenty years. I then switched to Mac. I think I am 100% in a position to say which is better. Mac is a thousand times better without a shadow of a doubt. Windows computers are the absolute pits.

    I'm not a blind worshipper though.

    A&F American-Eagle Holister Apple Dubes = (D4/Pretentious Person)

    A couple of years ago Pauls Boutique had a high correlation of people wearing it to them being a single mother.

    Does this mean I can now say people who drive VW Golfs are a bit scummy?

    It's just crazy money for headphones that don't even look good (I know how they work is more important but they could at least look less cheap-ass!)

    The thing with Apple too is the cost - that's probably what bothers people. But you get what you pay for, it's a good product. As long as those who are fans of Apple aren't sneering at those who don't use Apple products, not an issue IMO.
