Says who?

Says I.

Exhibit A)

A man who lives in Alabama in 2017 dressed like he is Pecos Bill or the cowboy from The Village People....

With the exception of the funny bend of the hat (which may be a regional thing), I'd dare say I'd be seen looking the same way if I were dressed up.

Not uncommon in the Dakotas, Wyoming, and the 'working' parts of Colorado and New Mexico, just to name a few places (Utah, Idaho, rural Nevada, too).

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Where’s the cutoff?  I live in KS and sometimes wear an oilskin hat in bad weather.  Wouldn’t want to cross the regional douchiness line.
I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

Other than I hate ties. :) A lady might talk me into a bolo, something silver and turquoise, but it's hard to find one that ain't as big as a belt buckle.

Ties are for funerals, because you can't get out of wearing there.  :shrug:

Yeah, but you live where that is the fashion. Roy don't. He'd be less ridiculous looking if he wore a Hawaiian skirt and flip flops.

LOL! So you don't get south to Kentucky and Tennessee, huh? Never been to Alabama, but I've been to Mississippi, which is spittin distance... Redneck is redneck, everywhere I've been. To include Michigan, and especially the UP. rural Illinois and Indiana.

Wait... Is Indiana racist now? Should that be NativeAmericana?

Guess I’m safe, then.  My profile pic is of the area around Castle Rock, near Quinter.

I wore ties for two years in private school. I haven't worn them that many times since. Real ones have too much ligature potential (not to mention a propensity for getting into everything from coffee to machinery), and clip on deals are just fake to me, so it's a bolo or nothing as a rule, unless I'm back East at a funeral or wedding, 'cause they just don't 'get' a bolo out that way. We're seeing that about the hat and vest right here, too.

I purposefully got mine caught in the  paper shredder at work once.  Worked like a charm.  Ties were declared a safety hazard unless yhere was a client in the office.

Yeah, that's all right... I have one tie, and it's black.

Yeah. We wouldn't want to miss a gripping moment of the Rev Hayseed soap opera sponsored by Palmolive.

I been through there about a hundred times... That's on 70... Western KS... Kinda by Oakley. There's a diner right in around there I stopped at whenever I went through... Short of Oakley heading west... Right off the freeway. That might have been Quinter.

I'd google it if you really care to know.  Doesn't matter to me.

Truth does matter to me.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

These folks really are schizophrenic. Isn't lowering the age of consent a pet issue of the homosexuals?
While this is going on here, the French are discussing establishing an 'age of consent'. The age they are looking at? Thirteen.

I'm going to be 62 tomorrow and, to be honest, women my own age or within five or ten years
either way are more attractive to me.

The last time I was attracted to a fourteen-year-old girl was when I was fourteen. And
when I turned fourteen, Cream was about to play their farewell concert at Royal Albert Hall
and Richard Nixon was freshly elected to the presidency.

   You Guys are all pikers here in Texas I've seen guys get out of a prius at the local grocery with Spurs on, get back to me when you get properly outfitted.

No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.
