I walk into a bar these days and it is a veritable sea of popped collars, most of them pink or some other color that belongs in a baby nursery.

It is rather odd.

I have seen people get "popped" in the face for putting other peoples collars down...I happen to agree with that response as well. IMHO, and from my own experiences, people who talk $hit about the guys/girls who pop their collars are often the same punk rock/goth/indie kids who claim/abhor the fact that they are so misunderstood and labeled incorrectly. Maybe it isn't our business if a kids wears a pastel colored shirt with his/her collar up. Maybe it isn't theirs that everyone here spends their friday/sat nights on ATOT...

Well your expereience isn't good then. About everyone I know here at uni dislikes popped collars, and I don't have any punk/indie/goth friends.

LOL. My ass kicking days ended a LONG time ago, thankfully.

But I still feel a small urge to smack the idiots with popped collars. :p

heh. "DAMN YOU KIDS!!" *shakes fist*

I have to admit - I have recently popped my collar......... on the golf course when I didn't feel like putting on suncreen. I believe this falls under "permissible"... ;)
