13320017, Their shoes Posted by sectachrome86, Fri Mar-15-19 12:43 PM
It doesn't have to be some crazy sneakerhead shit but if someone is wearing corny shoes I assume theyre corny. Its usually a pretty good indicator.

We did this lunch time workout thing for charity one day and he showed up wearing those vibram shoes that look like gloves for your feet. I knew dude was corny long before this but it just cemented the fact.

13320106, Black kids wearing metal band shirts Posted by flipnile, Fri Mar-15-19 03:26 PM
Corny.
Also, probably most white kids wearing metal band t-shirts.
I doubt these kids are listening to Slayer, Metallica, Pantera or Megadeth. I worked a bunch of metal shows years back, and there were like only the same two black dudes with dreads at the shows.
The 80s/90s alternative band t-shirts would be much more believable.

13320114, I wear the alternative ones all the time Posted by Lil Rabies, Fri Mar-15-19 03:40 PM
My smashing pumpkins, green day, pixies shirts are my late pass: listened to only hip hop then.

13320316, Do the posers bother them? Posted by flipnile, Mon Mar-18-19 09:35 AM
When I told my lady my feelings about posers wearing band shirts, she told me about the time she found a shirt for an obscure band in a thrift shop. Wearing another day while thrifting, she meets an older lady that asks her if she's a fan of the band, and that she also used to be the singer for a band back in the day. Sheepishly, she told her it was just for style, then went home and googled the lady and found out she was pretty well-known at one point. Going to ask her the name.

13320191, Only if they really aren't a fan of the band Posted by OKdamn, Sat Mar-16-19 08:45 AM
As in - can't name any songs that weren't singles or popular..I know that's snobby but I'm judgemental like that..I'm the same towards anyone wearing a Wu Tang shirt

Specifically those Snapchat type filters that make your eyes unnaturally big while making your skin unnaturally smooth. I’ve seen both women and men use those too.

13320451, RE: Things that make you assume someone's corny/stupid without knowing them Posted by Nodima, Mon Mar-18-19 01:46 PM
Wearing athleisure clothing as regular day clothing and NOT displaying any signs of athleticism
Wearing athleisure clothing as celebratory / special occasion dinner clothing and being CLEARLY athletic
Encompassing an entire conversation around airlines, tiered club membership and credit card usage
Being a round-faced guy wearing a too-tight watch who only talks about work and laughs at their own jokes
A watch on both wrists (unless you make a living as a drug dealer / role playing drug dealer)
Women wearing calf-wrap boots like those Egyptian style sandals, whatever those are, they are BUNS
Above-knee boots; below knee boots are subject to wearer but generally also suspect until otherwise noted
A tank top with a full phrase on it in block letters like YOU HATE ME BECAUSE YOU AIN'T ME, or a hashtag like CHAMPAGNE CAMPAIGN
A t-shirt with any kind of Ed Hardy or Tru Religion type design to it
Sunglasses on the back of your head; sunglasses in the V of your tee subject to wearer
Listening to and singing along to "Headstrong" by Trapt in 2019 (or 2018, or 2005)
Asking for a martini with no vermouth
Asking what kind of bourbons a bar has, hearing the list get rattled off, then going for a vodka-soda instead
Asking if a bar has your specific beer brand, ie. Michelob Ultra or Busch Light, and upon hearing the bar doesn't stock it but has alternatives, just ordering water instead with an indignant look on your face
and so on

13320564, I wish I could think of an actor that personifies this Posted by Nodima, Mon Mar-18-19 06:01 PM
The thought was actually brought on by this out of town woman that sat at the bar next to this out of town guy about a week ago. She was butch-yet-feminine for starters, her hair was sort of like...she kind of looked like a young version of Mickey Rourke in The Wrestler, if that makes sense? Smooth skin, but whispy old wrestler type hair?
Like, Andy Richter would do this bit. She sits at the bar and at first is pretty silent and keeping to herself, but then she catches wind somehow that the asian guy is from out of town and she strikes up a conversation that he absolutely can't escape from. The entire thing involves her waving her arms, nodding her head as she talks and as she listens almost entirely off beat just to exert dominance over the pace of the conversation. Most of her stories start with a version of "my aunt" or "my dad always said" and goes on to describe some finance or travel scenario I just feel like most families are not spending their free time talking about at the rate she makes it seem.
Being a restaurant downtown and out of step with most of the city, we get a lot of out of towners looking for "what they're used to" and I see a lot of these guys. That it was a woman this time made it more memorable, but it's always the same build of person. Stocky, under 5'10", small hands and huge forearms, company t-shirt or windbreaker on, too small watch, finds both everything they say and everything their conversation partner says worth a belly laugh (but like a heh HEH, not a hahahahHAHA), and just can NOT let the conversation end once it starts, because there's always another tier of airline credit card to aspire toward or potential sales client to mine if they can just find the angle. And the entire bar/restaurant is trapped analyzing their interactions because they can be heard from every seat in the place.
I just have no way of relating to these people, so I've really zeroed in on them over the past three years trying to figure them out.
