Appropos of this thread on MeFi: it takes a while for trends to work their way down here to Houston, TX. But I can report that today I saw a guy at the Downtown YMCA→[More:]lifting weights while wearing a vintage Journey concert t-shirt and a trucker cap. YUSSS.

That said, I was listening to those Mission of Burma remasters that Matador just put out, so I'm not sure what that says about me.

Feh, guys have been wearing truckers caps and classic rock t-shirts around here for the last thirty years. When are urban hipsters going to start wearing mullets, chain wallets and chewing skoal to complete the look?

I think that's what octothorpe meant. I mean really. How much more ripster could you be but while working out wearing a mullet, chainwallet, and chewing Skoal?
