I am told that fashions come and go. As you might suspect, this phenomenon is quite foreign to curmudgeons. Give us a "look" and it is locked in for life. Hell, give us a set of clothes at 60, and THEY are locked in for life.
Leisure suits came and (deservedly) went. But then came running shoes as everyday footwear (sneakers in my day, suitable for play only), T-shirts with some stupid message or other (UNDERshirts in my day, and free of advertising), hoodies (foul weather gear, not everyday attire) and pajama pants (I trust I needn't comment further on this scourge - I made the Societé position quite clear back in March 2012).
No problem, I thought - these too shall pass.
Problem. These things are not only still with us, they are more pervasive than ever. You're probably thinking "yeah, you not only dress like it was 1980, you WEAR what you had in 1980, so who are YOU to complain?"
I'm a curmudgeon, nimrod, of COURSE I'll complain.
