I was late teens early twenties during that crap ! My mom would buy that BS. I'd leave the tags on em and return for $$

Then went out to get someone to buy me beer or booze with the money 😉

Wearing Your Collar Down is for Poor People
By I.M. Adick, III

When my ancestors came over to this great country 400 years ago, they had a vision for a utopia, free from minorities, liberals, poor people, homosexuals, and immigrants. There are few today who share such lofty ideals, but we're easy to find: Pastel polo shirts, loafers without socks, tucked-in shirts, but most importantly, collars up.

Call me a d*uchebag. Call me an arrogant little c*cks*cking d*ckhead. Beat the sh*t out of me if I'm not with fifteen of my B-frat friends (unlikely). But just know this: I interned at Smith Barney this summer. Where did you work? A Blockbuster? That's right you insignificant sack of dogsh*t; I'm going to be your boss. So take your t-shirt wearing, financial aid, blue-collar a*s over to Blockbuster and get me a copy of Old School. Do you even own a tuxedo?

Look at my girlfriend. You think she'd go for someone who didn't have his collar up? I don't think so. I remember the night I met her. I bought her so many $9 drinks she couldn't even walk. So I drove her home in my BMW 328ci, but not before I took a few "liberties" with her. The next morning I took her to brunch and went to the mall, where I bought her some blouses. You a*sh*les don't know the first thing about being a gentleman. You probably don't even know how to sail.

When I get out of business school, I'm going to be making $120,000 a year. Add that to my trust fund, and I can buy a country club membership, a ski house, and still have enough money to go barhopping around the city in my designer clothes and sh*t-eating grin. Maybe I'll offer you a hundred bucks to flip my collar up for me. I earned it you middle-class f*ck up. I bet you went to public school.

You're so predictable. I bet I can guess your political party just by looking at you. My cronies and I range from elitist northern liberals to heartless conservative bastards. I've wasted enough time with you. Get some rich parents, an internship, and a pink polo with the collar up, and then maybe I'll let you hang out with me.

sad thing is not everyone knows that it's a joke.....

People who 'pop' collars on shirts/sweaters not designed for it look STUPID.

(IE., don't go buy a polo and pop the collar - that looks DUMB)

If, OTOH, your shirt/sweater is designed to have the collar up....it looks stupid to have it down. (I'd post a pic, but I don't want ATOT to sodomize my poor web server)
