Thick Beanie in 90+ degree weather that clashes loudly with a suit that you shouldn't be pairing with any beanie in the first place. blue-check

Suit either poorly fitted or not tailored to fit at all. blue-check

Ultra Casual suede loafers that also clash loudly blue-check

Buttoned up bottom button chefs-kiss

Best of all, Tim has this look that betrays that in his own he's absolutely slaying it with this look. I'd put money on a bet that the suit is probably from some over hyped designer brand (likely Armani because ...... Tim).

No one would recognize him without the beanie.

[-] Lemmygradwontallowme@hexbear.net 11 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Are you sure? Could be that you talked to him once... (which is the reason he kept his beanie...)

[-] Robert_Kennedy_Jr@hexbear.net 11 points 3 months ago

People would be wondering if Matty Yglesias had lost some weight.

[-] TheDoctor@hexbear.net 7 points 3 months ago

Yeah, he claims that he takes it off when he doesn’t want to get recognized and it works

[-] Hestia@hexbear.net 4 points 3 months ago

"Nobody cared who I was till I put on the beanie."

[-] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 3 months ago

Are we sure the beanie isn't actually his skull or how he grew hair?

Bottom buttoning a jacket is the fashion equivalent of not peeling the protective clear plastic off a new electronic device. I don't give a flying fuck about fashion and even I feel like there is some degree of willfull ignorance required to do it. They should really just be sewn shut by default.

Pretty much any formal event (mostly weddings at this point) will have me walking up to dudes I'm friends with and unbuttoning their bottom buttons.

At least his pants fit, Stone looks like he took something off the clearance rack without trying it on and the waist/inseam measurements were reversed.

[-] GenXen@hexbear.net 22 points 3 months ago

I wouldn't slam on a regular bro for any of these faux pas (except the beanie) when you see them at the one event in their year that requires a suit, but I'll slam the guy who promotes 'high value male' bullshit for fastening the bottom button.

Now I'm trying to decide if the ignorance is willful or not, because I could absolutely picture Tim being advised and brushing it off because he's a rebel.

[-] PKMKII@hexbear.net 27 points 3 months ago

The angle makes it look like they’re both four feet tall

They're not!? wowee

Making Roger Stone look good even though he had to borrow a coat from the venue to meet the dress code policy

[-] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 20 points 3 months ago

At some point I assume Roger Stone will show up in a leather trench coat and start yelling about killing Toons

[-] EmoThugInMyPhase@hexbear.net 19 points 3 months ago

The manually rolled up pants cuffs dean-neutral

[-] FungiDebord@hexbear.net 19 points 3 months ago

Zoomers would have you believe that Stone's pants fit well zelensky-pain

[-] WashedAnus@hexbear.net 9 points 3 months ago

Only if he's got the knee-high white socks on underneath

[-] Rom@hexbear.net 15 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Can someone explain to me what the big deal is about the bottom button? Everyone insists it's bad to button it but I've never understood why. Is it supposed to look bad? It looks fine to me, it's just a suit

[-] GenXen@hexbear.net 20 points 3 months ago

It's a tradition that started because King Edward VII was too fat for his coat, so he stopped buttoning the bottom button. Not long after, the British aristocracy began doing the same.

It is silly when you realize that's the origin, but most people don't realize that's what started it (especially on a leftist site). It's just become one of those unacceptable faux pas when wearing a suit, and jackets today are tailored in a way that anticipates that the bottom button is never fastened.

[-] kristina@hexbear.net 18 points 3 months ago

yeonmi-park the anglos loved their dear long dead leader so much they make buttons on their suits that they aren't supposed to fasten in reverence for him

[-] Rom@hexbear.net 13 points 3 months ago

Okay I see what you mean now with jackets being tailored that way, the button being buttoned gives Dim Tool's suit some weird wrinkles. They should just do away with the button once and for all though.

Wearing a beanie with a suit is absolutely hideous though. Like I have no fashion sense and even I'm cringing. What the fuck is it with mediocre white dudes and turning their bad fashion sense into their whole image.

[-] Dolores@hexbear.net 13 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

penis sightline of course

spoilerit's some dumb shit about how it messes up the cut because the daft tailors decided to put buttons you aren't meant to use on suits. because overweight aristos that couldn't fasten all their buttons made it fashionable. why the button must remain as a functional vestigial organ escapes me

[-] Rom@hexbear.net 12 points 3 months ago

It is very silly to have a button you are never meant to button. I will never understand fashion.

[-] keepcarrot@hexbear.net 6 points 3 months ago

The east German military coat I'm currently wearing is double breasted, but the left line of buttons is for symmetry. The left side of the rear flap is held in place with a hidden button.

Gives me hips tho

[-] CatoPosting@hexbear.net 2 points 3 months ago

It is my belief that things like this exist for plebs to out themselves as not belonging in high society.

[-] TheDoctor@hexbear.net 13 points 3 months ago

He’s rich enough to not suffer the social consequences of looking like a schlub or a weirdo. Many such cases.

Tim has all the money in the world and he looks worse dudes with no fucking money. I didn't expect much from a guy who pairs a flintlock revolver with a wakizashi to pin on his wall, but come on tim you go to these places and pay people to make you look good.

Of course he's probably so god damn insufferable to deal with that anyone who gets assigned to help him, will half ass it just to get him out of the store as quickly as possible because all he'd be doing was talking out of his ass about how cool and awesome he is and how he's gonna go hang out with Roger stone, like you know who Roger stone is right? Well let me tell you.

God the horror.

[-] BurgerPunk@hexbear.net 11 points 3 months ago

The fact that he is so insanely rich will not stop being astounding to me. Most efficient system of distributing resources btw

[-] homhom9000@hexbear.net 5 points 3 months ago

I didn't know this at all. Did it come from streaming or old money ?

[-] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 6 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Streaming, and his "journalism" (he was paid by fascist billionaires to run stories on how evil auntiefa is, about Muslims in Europe and how they're replacing white people etc. He then pivoted to commentary (which his audience calls "journalism" too) and reacting to shit from the daily mail, cnn, fox etc to whine about the "left" etc. He does it while being a whiny little beanie boy. I'm not sure how he's maintained and audience, but I guess posting pro-bourgeios, pro-fascist propaganda pays well.

[-] BurgerPunk@hexbear.net 6 points 3 months ago

He's made millions from streaming, somehow

[-] Hestia@hexbear.net 9 points 3 months ago

He's so damn insecure about his hair it's funny

[-] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 7 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Tim Fool: "I'm anti establishment"

Also Tim Fool: "anyways here's why I agree with the state department that Chyna bad, here's me agreeing with everything the mainstream press does, here's me hanging out with literal ruling class ghouls like Roger Stone"

Yep totally against the ruling elites, nothing to see here.

There's a special place in the gulag for snivelling little pieces of shit fascists like beanie man here.

[-] nothx@hexbear.net 7 points 3 months ago

My favorite part is that people like Tim fawn over people like Roger, they act like they are in the same circle because they are both conservative morons. When really, Roger has no fucking clue who Tim is and is wondering why they let into the event with a beanie.

We need some South Park emojis on this site
