    Dude is wearing a nice coat and a scarf. Don’t you know if you are not wearing a trucker hat and a coat from the army surplus store that you are a fag.

      I was in WV visiting family for Thanksgiving. I wasn’t wearing incredibly nice clothing, but it wasn’t just a hoodie or whatever other junk is cheap. I really felt out of place (which I was). I was getting a hotdog at a place that only opens for two days every year now, that was a staple a famous, and the next nicest clothes was probably some old guy wearing a jacket either from a surplus store or from Vietnam or something.

      The good news is no one cared. I wasn’t called anything and no one seemed to be bothered. I am a straight white man though.

      can confirm, any guy wearing a scarf in the sticks is probably (considered by others to be) a fag

      As someone who wears a surplus Czech army field jacket, I take umbridge with thine implications. Surplus is just thrift with a bias towards khaki, camo, and questionable food products. Also you can get some pretty solid storage boxes via surplus vendors, I keep my bungies and jumpers in a waterproof 30mm ammo case in the bed of my truck
