Honestly I think the issue of real or not is kind of stupid. I have more respect for the people with the fake scarves. It shows that they care about their appearance, but aren't so stuck up as to pay a ridiculous sum of money for a $20 piece of fabric.

I love how wearing a certain scarf = caring about your appearance.
Oh, world.


And you just said you think scarves are ridiculous. Now it goes hand in hand with caring about your appearance? xD

I'll stand by the fact that I think they are completely pompous, but not everyone shares that opinion, and I can respect that much. And to be honest, there are a few people who really know how to rock a scarf.

No, I know, hence the "oh, world" comment because that's generally how every person thinks. It's just funny how someone decided that scarves are cool and now [generally] everybody (mindless sheep ;D) thinks they're cool.

Ah yes, I can see how the "oh, world" does that now. I'll probably need another 2 hours for my brain to really wake up. My damn roomies keep waking me up in the middle of the night.

I agree though, fashion trends are a rather sad occurrence.

I'll forgive you for wearing a scarf if it's at least -15 degrees celsius out, but scarves as a fashion statement just gives off this air of snootiness. Point in case: THE SCARF FLIP



I get cold really fast, my neck being no exception. I also get sick with the slightest change in weather, so i have to regulate body temperature whenever I can. Which is why I own a billion scarves. They really do help :(

urrong. Besides, I have my emo scarf that works well
For...well, reasons I won't specify. XD

Also, I'm all for consumerist and greedy behaviour, but nothing would ever make a scarf worth 300 bucks to me.

(and 300 bucks could get me 2 pairs of really fresh shoes ;D)

300 bucks would only get me one pair of decent shoes. Cool shoes do not exist in a thin size 14 Mens. If I want anything other than hiking shoes or boots it has to be custom made =(

This just reminded me of when Shaquille O'Neal's coach once said that he used Shaq's shoeboxes as spare bedrooms.

a) I've changed a lot since 3 years ago.
b) It's not like I paid for it or continue to pay for it.
c) You've seen the screen. There's a reason why I don't fix it.

My shoe size is probably around a 4 (to be honest, I have no idea... I have like an inch, inch and half of space when I wear a size 5) but they're as wide as a ****ing ogre.

Both of our lives suck. =[
