Have We Reached Peak Side Parting/Aviation Sunglasses/Bomber Jacket?

    For several years now I have worn my hair with a side parting and slicked back with gel, aviation sunglasses and a green M1A1 bomber jacket with Levi 501 jeans and runners.

    Now over the past 12 months or so I have noticed everyone is copying me.

    Everywhere I go I notice people with slicked back hair parted at the side, bomber jackets and sunglasses.

    What am I going to do?

    So you were born in 1989, wear aviators, bomber jacket, Levi's and part your hair...and you're worried everyone is copying you?

    Slight side tangent but I was in Dublin recently after a spell away and I was just wondering if all the barbers up there now work strictly on the basis that you have to pick a stupid fking haircut off a short list of stupid haircuts with none other available?

    Shave your head and change the the jacket for a green one with orange inner lining, roll up your jeans and buy a pair of 24 hole doc boots. No one will copy you then.

    I just like the classic look.

    Slick hair, sunglasses, bomber jacket and jeans has always looked cool.

    I'm a big strong dude and when people see me coming they step out of my way out of fear and admiration.

    About a dozen years ago all the hot women were wearing low cut jeans and thongs.

    Then fat girls started wearing them and it just became "yeeeuuuk."

    I don't want my look stolen and destroyed by wimpy little geeky hipsters pukes.

    I was in the barbers recently and the lad ahead of me was asking for his haircut to be a "little dorky", that was you wasn't it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,000 ✭✭✭fizzypish


    Ha ha this is brilliant. I met a guy the weekend who was dressed like he was an extra from top gun except he had a red and white striped T-shirt (like wheres wally) underneath the jacket. Fantastic! Its rich me taking the piss out of anyone's dress sense.....
