WTFlannel?
Normally I don’t give a damn about what other people are wearing unless it’s… questionable (Like the kind of outfits I see on Go Fug Yourself but on people that I actually see in person, and not celebrities) or if it’s just one of those things I can’t stand to see in public. Like people who wear ugg boots with their jeans tucked into them in broad daylight. Or crocs. They’re a kind of visual pollution by themselves. After I see these items, I kind of lose it and instantly start thinking shallow and very nasty thoughts about people I don’t even know. Which makes me a bad person, but at least I don’t say to them “I think your ugg boots are really ugly, and you shouldn’t ever leave the house with your jeans tucked into them like that,” right???
Lately flannel has joined my list of items I never want to see people wear outside of their houses. How can something that looks like that suddenly be so fashionable among teenagers and therefore, everywhere? Everyone I ever see at work is wearing flannelette shirts (Sometimes paired with jeans tucked into ugg boots, so it’s a double whammy). Some of them have their hair in pigtails, pitchforks in hand and their tractors in the car park. They all look like they come from a dinky little town with lots of farms and cows and… Oh wait. I do live in a dinky little town with lots of cows so it kind of makes sense but it’s UGLY AND WHY ARE PEOPLE WEARING IT WHEN IT MAKES THEM LOOK AWFUL TOO? (I really don’t say this stuff out loud. I’d have been bashed by flannel wearing delinquents by now.)
I don’t like being superficial! I don’t! It distracts from what’s really important… Like fangirling. Please excuse me while I go squee over something pretty to expel the images of flannel-sporting teenagers from my brain.

no worries, I do it too. You can’t help it that it’s ugly :P it’s the truth.

Flannel is everywhere this season! It’s not old school flannel though, it’s thin checked flannel, made into shirt dresses. *nods*
# Meli, 2 months, 3 weeks ago.
See, I agree with you on the particular item of flannel you posted. That, dear, is LUMBERJACK flannel. I have to agree with Amanda… you have to find the RIGHT flannel, not farmer flannel. I love flannel <3

people other than trucker lesbians wear flannel?
# Xuan, 2 months, 3 weeks ago.
It’s going on majorly at my uni campus at the moment. FLANNEL. EVERYWHERE.
Funnily enough, it’s only the Middle-Easterns who wear it.
# Tracey, 2 months, 3 weeks ago.
EWWWWW FLANNEL EVERYWHERE. Does it make you want to gouge your eyes out?
ALSO, PLEASE TO BE DOING MY ENGLISH EXTENSION ESSAY? KTHXBAI. :P
# Tracey, 2 months, 3 weeks ago.
Surprisingly enough, yes. URGH.
# Tracey, 2 months, 3 weeks ago.
If so, please let me quote a movie: I CAN’T HANDLE THE TRUTH!!!
# Tracey, 2 months, 3 weeks ago.
Noooo, I’m sorry, it’s still ugly. Never ever never never never wearing it or wanting to see it again!
# Tracey, 2 months, 3 weeks ago.
Ok, that may be true Meli, but I don’t see the RIGHT flannel. I only see FARMER flannel! And I’m getting sick of the word flannel!
# Holly, 2 months, 2 weeks ago.
OMG. *stabs Crocs*
I have Crocs though, amusingly! They’re light blue…but somebody gave them to me, so it’s not like I thought they were cool and bought them for myself.
# experiment-fatso, 2 months, 2 weeks ago.
Heh. My little brother has light blue crocs. I tried them on the other day and each time I step I make this weird fart-like noise. Needless to say, it provided many dozens minutes of enjoyment and childish satisfaction. *nods* And I second (third?) what your friends say: you have to get the RIGHT flannel. The word flannel makes me think of white kitchen funnels…
# Xuan, 2 months, 2 weeks ago.
It makes me want to throw cans of paint at them, just to make sure I don’t see the flannel. Agh!
Do your own EE1 essay! :P I’ve got mah own shiznit to deal with, homeguuuuurl. (I did NOT just say that.)
# Tracey, 2 months, 2 weeks ago.
Ohhh, yes you did, homeboyyyyyy.
:O Chucking cans of paint around is a VERY GOOD IDEA.
# Tracey, 2 months, 2 weeks ago.
HYPOCRITE!! No, only joking :P You can’t help it if someone doesn’t recognise the sheer ugliness of crocs! ;D
# Tracey, 2 months, 2 weeks ago.
But WHERE, Annie-dear, can the right flannel be found? It’s not like I’ve been searching or anything, but I really haven’t seen any nice flannel. Ever.
LOL FARTING CROCS XDD

# Chien Yee, 2 months, 2 weeks ago.
I don’t like them either. It reminds me of hill billies for some strange reason >.>
# Felisa, 2 months, 1 week ago.
When I think of flannel, I think of my Dad and his fashion sense (or lack thereof) so yeah, I don’t understand the new trend either. It’s like telling me that my dad ACTUALLY ha some fashion sense.
