Photo Friday 2 June '06: Post your favorite clothes. Or goofy clothes. "Defining" clothes. Favorite flannel shirt (jon?) Halloween clothes. Friend's clothes. ("Clothes" includes shoes, jewelry, accessories...just general wearable stuff!)
&%$! Sorry I forgot to post this early for peeps in different time zones!

Cleverly disguised as a tomato plant. I need to work on my disguises.

WOW that large multi-colored flower to the left of you must have been incredibly hard to cultivate!

Mmmm.

If I had a white suit on, I'd be cleverly disguised as Ben Vereen starting up "Pipin"

Here I am in my favorite t-shirt:

Apparently, there were copyright issues right after I bought mine so it was discontinued. It always makes a splash.

Here's my other favorite t-shirt:

with my favorite comic book character Buddy Bradley on it. He's similar to me, so much that once a stripper saw that shirt, looked at me and said "oh, it's you."

and here I am in my favorite flannel (now deceased) with my man Handsome Dick Manitoba:

I'm running oddly low on quirky, weird, fun tees lately.

My gortex jacket looms large in my livery during fall, winter, and spring.

This shirt was my favourite, because it's a giant rabbit with a syringe looming over a terrified human in a cage.:

Then I drank a little too much beer and now I can't wear it anymore :(

Well it looks like you were contemplating doing something really bad with that cat. . .the shirt might have suffered.

I wanted the Clockwork Orange Emily shirt: "Emily isn't crazy, she's just mad", but the company refused to make it in sizes for actual human beings.

A valiant, admirable attempt!

My hat. Front. Back.

Inspired by Full Metal Jacket:
Pogue Colonel: Marine, what is that button on your body armor?
Private Joker: A peace symbol, sir.
Pogue Colonel: Where'd you get it?
Private Joker: I don't remember, sir.
Pogue Colonel: What is that you've got written on your helmet?
Private Joker: "Born to Kill", sir.
Pogue Colonel: You write "Born to Kill" on your helmet and you wear a peace button. What's that supposed to be, some kind of sick joke?
Private Joker: No, sir.
Pogue Colonel: You'd better get your head and your ass wired together, or I will take a giant shit on you.
Private Joker: Yes, sir.
Pogue Colonel: Now answer my question or you'll be standing tall before the man.
Private Joker: I think I was trying to suggest something about the duality of man, sir.
Pogue Colonel: The what?
Private Joker: The duality of man. The Jungian thing, sir.
Pogue Colonel: Whose side are you on, son?
Private Joker: Our side, sir.
Pogue Colonel: Don't you love your country?
Private Joker: Yes, sir.
Pogue Colonel: Then how about getting with the program? Why don't you jump on the team and come on in for the big win?
Private Joker: Yes, sir.
Pogue Colonel: Son, all I've ever asked of my marines is that they obey my orders as they would the word of God. We are here to help the Vietnamese, because inside every gook there is an American trying to get out. It's a hardball world, son. We've gotta keep our heads until this peace craze blows over.
Private Joker: Aye-aye, sir.

We spent a good portion (two thirds?) of my senior year English class studying the Duality of Man, til I was sick with it. So when I saw that scene in FMJ, I was all over it. I had the EVIL had as a present from a friend (up until then, it was a Knicks hat or nuthin'), and I went looking for a smiley face. I'd adopted the Smiley as an homage to the Chainsaw Vigilante (more pics), so the two in combination seemed perfect to me.

I never did do that CV Halloween Costume...

small_ruminant, you are not small. In certain areas, that is. False advertising...I demand my money back!

Dear God, Ruminant Cleavage! I think a nick switch is in order. How about Distracting_Ruminant?

Take pride, d_r - I opened your pic right when my supervisor walked by.

Here's my most favoritest clothing item ever in the history of me: an orange hoodie jacket that I've had so long... Well, it might be older than one or two of you.

I took this with me (and wore it just about every day) the very first time I ever visited Greece... which was a looooong time ago. It's so old, it ought to be illegal, but I'll wear it 'til the last tattered shred falls from my body.

"You know," said the Finn. "I got a pair of shoes

older than you are. Sometimes I think you got about as

much class as those yahoos from Jersey.

I do NOT want to admit how many times I say that, or a variant, to assorted young'ins I encounter. . .

danf, I would consider getting friendly with my press pot, but you can take the food processor away and use it for your own nefarious and highly personal deeds.

That's my favorite unluck Jim Beam tee!

JF I thought you were going to claim Jada as your favorite thing to wear.

Well, my favorite item of clothing (ie. the thing I wear all the time) is my black hoodie. Of course, I'm on my 3rd or so incarnation of it. I like to think of it as the same hoodie I've had since I was in college though. Here it is when I'm hanging with Boring Postcards and our misters. cos I love this pic

Heh! I love gaspode's pic... that was such a great afternoon!

Here's me in my Gang of Four t-shirt, which isn't all that memorable except for being the only article of clothing I've specifically recorded on Flickr.

I keep meaning to take pics of lots of my cool t-shirts to record for posterity and I haven't done it yet.
