what would a cfc party be like?

[Farm Boy]

No, that's not it.

 

[Narz]

Yeah but why do they need to be so flashy and colourful? What do you gain by that, exactly? I mean, I can understand it if your fashion sense calls for bright colours everywhere, and palm trees, and dolphins, or whatever else. But I don't see guys who wear hawaiian shirts wearing super flashy shorts or socks or shoes or hats or drive cars painted with penguins holding pina coladas on it or anything like that. So why not just wear a shirt that's exactly like a hawaiian shirt, but doesn't call so much attention to you via colourful imagery?

I think its supposed to say "Hey, I'm not some office stiff, I'm a chill laid back guy".

 

[Farm Boy]

I've always figured the fact that they annoy some people is integral to their appeal. Oh, I'm comfortable and it bothers you that I look lame? I aint even mad, but deal with it m8!

 

[warpus]

They don't bother me, I just think they look tacky. So I try to figure out why they're so popular..

 

[Farm Boy]

Dunno, it's not particularly deep. They're comfy. They're like crocs, but more colorful. They're also sometimes about as fun as some people allow themselves to get. For for lame people that want to be comfortable?

 

[warpus]

Maybe I just need to put one on and see how I feel

 

[Joecoolyo]

I think the only people who wear Hawaiian shirts are American spies hoping to look so obviously like American spies that nobody would suspect that they are American spies.

That, or people trying to spoof the stereotypical middle-aged American tourist. I mean, people can't really be wearing those things in normal contexts, can they?

I love my Hawaiian shirts! As Farm Boy said, they're comfy and I think they look neat.

I bought a Hawaiian shirt once for a wedding. To be honest I was looking forward to the excuse to finally buy and wear one. I'll still wear it either (a) in Hawaii when the occasion calls for a collared shirt or (b) on a really nice sunny and warm day and I feel like it.

It's a piece of clothing, you wear it if you want to wear it?

 

[shadowplay]

I'm a dashiki man myself.

 

[Perfection]

Well I guess we could randomize the avatar buttons and if folks don't remember your pictures, then you could be anyone you wanted, even Perfection; I'm guessing he would be a no show even if it was all expenses paid.

You pay I play. Anytime anywhere.

If it's a casual setting, I don't see anything wrong with guys wearing Hawaiian shirts. As long as they don't wear combinations such as a blue shirt and fuschia shorts, that is (that would clash horribly).

But penguins? That's just silly. They're not native to the northern hemisphere.

Fashion sense comes and goes and cycles around. Right now we're in a "solid colors preferred" phase, from what I can tell, so most work clothes aren't particularly colorful, and neither are a lot of casual clothes.

But just 200-300 years ago, you guys would be discussing lace on your shirts and buckles on your high-heeled shoes. And you'd all be wearing hats.

Unlike the uncivilized Western devils with their powdered wigs and what not I'd be wearing something a bit closer to this:

 

[Farm Boy]

Woven worm poo?

 

[cybrxkhan]

Woven worm poo?

Bingo.

Alternatively, I guess I wouldn't mind dressing up like this, though with a mustache

Spoiler :

 

[warpus]

Never!

Wonderful. We'll see what might unfold.

 

[bhavv]

Kyrikios (sp) would be contemplating deep philosophical mumbo jumbo.

Snerk would be the party clown.

Narz would be hitting on every lady in sight, but most likely to get it on with Valka since they both love cats.

Warpus would be absent due to being on holiday.

I would be screaming gloom and doom about the evils of mankind.

Domen would come armed with a briefcase full of maps and graphs regarding race and genetics.

 

[Timsup2nothin]

So, if the party gets out of hand and the cops come to quiet it down, who answers the door?

 

[Hygro]

You will

 

[Timsup2nothin]

I'm thinkin' a lot of people would say that's a bad choice. Just a wild guess.
