Fear of thigh highs, perhaps.
Ankle lows
I just don't like how they feel on my legs :/
Games Without Frontiers?
Phil Collins could be an American Psycho reference perhaps, but idk why they wouldn't use Huey Loius Sports instead.
My guess is they are trying to say it's a millennial since it's claimed millennials only wear ankle socks or no-show socks and no other generation does
What‽ Ankle socks suck and I won't have my generation slandered like this

Why is Phil Colins there?
Even if it wasn't the complete opposite, I don't know why anyone would put it with this group
Maybe it's the title, "In the Air Tonight"?
Cuz it's not the Tupac version?

But like, even before Tupac did that, I'm 90% sure "In the air tonight" was literally the song that made Phill blow up with the Black community specifically.
He got sampled a lot and would feature on tracks, which is common now but not 30-40 years ago. But I'm pretty sure all that was because of the original version of this song.

Punisher skull, either as a poorly done tattoo or somewhere on their vehicle.
Definitely on the rear window of their truck.
Don't forget both a Gadsen Flag and Thin Blue Line bumper stickers
The muted "ragged flag" vinyl stickers sized and cut for your vehicle's window dimensions, but all the stars on the field are Punisher skulls with blonde fright combovers
Needs a pair of 3Xl jorts, with a gut spilling over the waistband.
Or cargo pants with an elastic waistband
Hey, don't shit on cargo pants with elastic waistbands. As a very tall and slim man I have trouble finding pants that are long enough while still staying up, especially as I like to gain a few extra kg of fat before the winter months (which are then lost come spring). Also the more pockets I have the better. Cargo pants with elastic waist and adjustable built in belt strap are peak pant technology.
They are quite functional
Those calves are way too toned for this population
Have you seen the mass of flesh those things need to ambulate? They're the only part of the body that has some tone.
Am a fat man, you're totally correct. It's weird. The rest of me is flabby but those suckers are like steel.
Probably more muscular than the stalks pictured, though? Those are the legs of a skinny man.
Very good point. Widen dem gams by 50%, I'd say.
I mean...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gary_Brooks_Faulkner
Gary Brooks Faulkner (born 1958) is an American former construction worker and landlord who was arrested in 2010 in Pakistan carrying a sword, pistol, night vision goggles, a map, and a Bible on his one-man hunt to capture Osama bin Laden, the founder and leader of Al-Qaeda.
The 2016 film Army of One starring Nicolas Cage was based on him.
I've looked through the entire comments section here, and I'm still bewildered by the low-cut socks.
That was the first thought I had. Who the fuck needs foot cleavage?
And In the Air…
That’s an awesome song and I hate seeing it associated at all with some right wing nutter. Why is it there?
I would have thought that awful Lee Greenwood song, Proud To Be An AmeriKKKan, or the Village People's YMCA, since Trump hijacked it for his white boy jack-off dance moves
don't bother, people have been bashing Phil collins since the beggining of time and nobody understands why.
Guy gets called annoying for releasing too many Top 10 hits during the 80s as if that was something bad, go figure how people's heads work. Why wasn't Kid rock put on this instead of Phil you ask? Your guess is as good as mine.
I guess low cut socks are considered out of fashion now. What the duck am I going to do with mine? Cotton socks are expensive.

Are truck nuts still a thing ? What about misspelled tattoos
Well it's not like the misspelled tattoos went anywhere
It's missing a body bag for them.
Hate to see you leave, but would love to see you get blown up on the internet.
It’s missing a confederate flag and “don’t tread on me” tattoo

Are you really an adult if your energy drink costs more than your beer?
The truck should be white.
