Hoover-Flags.
‘Cept we’ll call em ‘Greenspan Flags’.
And a continuation of the evolution of the ironic, American Apparel 80’s styles that will confuse the hell out of me. Skinny pants and all…

Can anyone say “Parachute Pants”?
Predicting a big return on these classic items from the late 1980s and early ‘90s. Box haircuts and British Knights sneakers also return.

I guess its a good 8 years till my torn up jeans, obscure band t-shirt, and old flannel come back in fashion, then?

Well, it so happens that I’m currently enrolled in a sewing class at AB Tech….
So watch out…I plan on unveiling a new line of clothing that will bring the fashion world to its well padded, double stitched knees….

In all honesty i just learned how to thread the damn machine and am only halfway through a pair of pajama pants…..
I can tear a motorcycle down to its frame and put it back together, but i swear to god it took me forever to finally get the hang of threadin’ one of those damn things…
but yeah, eventually I wanna do functional, durable clothes made from hemp, flax, and recycled canvas & fire hose….

Threading a sewing machine is a pain in the ass. Even the self-threading ones take ten minutes to set up properly. Needle and thread may be slower, but it’s also less of a hassle. (Yes, I can sew ... what of it?)

Having basically been a slob for the last 33 years, I have now contracted with a local anti-fashion designer to create a complete wardrobe for me. The results should be….interesting.

Maybe Steve the seamstress can sew himself some balls?
Like a new kickball made out of a used fire hose and a hacky sack out of old flannels with a flax seed filling. Great for summer fun…! ....?

Hats of Meat!
The buzzing flies, the maggoty hair, the stench of decaying flesh-surely this is the future of haberdashery.
