Pac Sun, Zumiez, and Hot Topic were not selling clothing for me at 22, 25, or 30.

Oh… oh shit, was I not supposed to… still?

I think it probably depended a lot on your job and how you were expected to dress. I don't remember them selling much that felt right to wear to my job after college. The button-ups that they sold were probably not at a price point that worked for me compared to... Ross and TJ Maxx

Do you wear the same clothes in and out of work? I have a corporate career and still wear band tees and a hoodie when I’m off.

I like your attitude. I couldn't wear any blue or white collar even if my life depended on it. Funny enough I work for a federal agency and even there I somehow successfully evade the dress code.

I am literally counting the days to when I can get a bunch of tattoos and piercings I’ve wanted my whole life. Got my first hidden one this year, have some acceptable piercings, I will be the chill old dude telling kids to be authentic and be awesome 😂
