Well, to be honest I meant more of a "I think it's annoying that something like half the upper year engineers feel they need to wear these jackets" type of thing. The people that wear them even before they get into a stream are pretty the worst of all.
I don't know, it's just kind of annoying when someone feels they need to let everyone they pass by know that they're in McMaster Engineering. Same with the iron ring thing. I know people that drool over the notion of attaining that thing. I don't like people that are all openly/arrogantly/intrusively proud like that (urban dictionary definition of douche bag), but then again, I'm quite cynical.
So basically, I will never buy a jacket or wear that iron ring
