"Tripp" is almost always spelled with two "p"s.

I know what I'm talking about here.

"Hey. I look exactly like everyone else. I should wear something that shows I tried a little bit harder, or at least telecasts I'm more than a simp who merely copies - almost exactly - what everybody else does."

It is not the height of fashion to copy the President, or any other world leader. If anything, it's the pinnacle of dullness. Wear a tie, wear a pink shirt, a polka dot one... And wear a jacket with stripes, perhaps tweed... Whatever. Anything but a white shirt, no tie, and blue jacket. It's old. It was yesterday five yesterdays ago, and yes -- It's almost as bad as wearing jeans with a sportcoat. Not quite there yet, but close. Real close.
You would have enjoyed the fancy brunch I was at Sunday. For the men: 50% jeans and tweeds. 25% khakis and sports coats. 25% fuzzy sweaters. I just wore a flannel shirt and khakis. But I scraped the horse shit off my boots before I went in.

My feeling on all this fashion stuff: Fuck you if you care. I wear what I feel like and find comfortable. If you don't like it, look at someone else. I usually have an attractive young sidekick at meetings if it helps.

Yes. But that is not a relationship.

String of blow jobs. Solicited, yes. But still not a relationship.

I am happy to say that I do not own a sport coat.

I own as many dashikis as sports coats. My supply of tweeds outstrips both, however.

Feeling the need to wear one is a sign of old age. Not literally, but in terms of mindset.

I should be more formal. That's what adults do.

Gold star for you!

I wear sport coats at work so I can button them up when I want to hide my "Mount and Do me" t-shirt from clients.
