WHAT THE HELL is it with geeks and plaid?

[Arch0wl]

For once I'm not trying to offend anyone, and I just want an answer. I mean, why do they wear it? It just furthers the stereotype. It doesn't look good either.

[ultimategamer]

some people must think plaid is sexah!
either that or they wanna be like the lumberjack in their dreams, i dunno

[Anticrombie0909]

Arch, if they had a good fashion sense and a view of how to be popular, they wouldn't be geeks.

So do I and most of my friends but were all skaters so it's in with the style to wear it big and open and what not. But don't forget when your like a protegy or somethin and you have parents who are brains or not they want to dress you still and shit. I know this dude man he's like a mad brain and he's in today's style. Blame the parents for not letting them wear it,unless theyre making themselves look retarded.

do you label anyone who wears plaid a geek? cause i've been labeled a geek but never even seen someone wear plaid.

What is it with geeks and wearing colorful anime related shirts??

[CIMSomebody]

Not all geeks wear plaid. I'm a geek, I don't wear plaid... I usually wear my Invader ZIM, Happy Tree Friends, or some other Anime show shirts and black pants.

cuz their mom's still think they are 3rd graders and want to keep them warm in the big, scary high school world.

or they have no fashion sense.

or they dont care.

[Lupin_the_3rd]

="Falcon"]or they dont care.

Ohh.. that me.. and i refuse to wear anime shirts.. i only wear khakis, sweater/shirts (in winter), Home made clothes, and my all time favorite old school pumas..

to get back on topic..

People shouldn't be labled on what they wear.. all that stuff about your clothes being a representation about your personal self is crap.. the only thing that represents you is the way you act.. i listen to rap, have long hair, dress in khakis (different pair everyday) watch wrestling, like techno, play ddr, and many do/like many other things that don't define what i look like.. people all me grunge, and ask if i like punk rock because of my long hair.... ask if I like American eagle and Abercrombie and fitch because of the khakis and sweater/shirts... all this is crap.. except the music.. i like punk rock.. just i dont have long hair of punk rock.. i have long hair because i like long hair.. To like rap I shouldn't have to wear Rocawear have a charm and put "spinners" on my car.. just like for to like punk i shouldn't have to have long hair, have holey clothes or have bad hygien... To know about me you shouldn't base your decisions on what i look like but how my brain works.. im tired of typing now.

t-shirts and dickies all year...and my the cheat sweatshirt. thats cool.

[Cenright]

I'm a band nerd, which is very different than a geek, and I hate plaid. Band nerds care for polyester uniforms with capes.

[IAMTHEEVILBEAN]

*mystic*

[fyreshadow3k]
