Fashion Question
I am the best man in an upcoming wedding. The groom has elected to pick out matching Banana Republic sweaters, shirts, and slacks instead of the traditional tux route. I think this is great. After all, who wants to wear a crappy tux anyway. The groom, however, has asked that we pay him $100 for said items. Is this taboo? Should I be complaining despite the fact that I get my money's worth of cool clothes. Should I be upset that I find Banana Republic fashionable now in favor of A&F? Should I show up to the wedding wearing a tux painted on a shirt?

You're wearing BR and still deny that you're a Republican?
You can only wear it if you bill it to the Federal government for oppression compensation, keep the shirt untucked, eat only vegetables at the reception, endorse hairy legs, and mutter "Yeah but that doesn't obligate her to debase her body to your violent, masculine, homophobic, anti-environmental, sexual urges whenever you want it mister." when the bride says "I do".
Oh, and be sure to blog about how bad you feel for continuing to support a cold, sadistic, monolithic corporation that exploits the bright and culturally rich people of the Caribbean to foist it’s overpriced clothing, made with the tears of a thousand underage Chinese wage slaves, onto an over-consuming, belligerently ignorant American public who would anoint Michael Moore for sainthood if religion weren’t a tyrannical exploiter of the poor and God actually existed….
…have you considered black waistcoats with tails? Always liked those….
I am a Republican and I am definitely not a fan of Banana Republic! So that means you are like a super-republican! I guess when you stole my absentee ballot last year and hid it from me- it was a desperate cry for help. Listen cutie- it is OK for you to admit that you are a Republican.
I must admit though- I definitely prefer the Abercrombie look to the BR look. Hmmm...maybe that is why everyone thinks I am 19 instead of 24?
I wear Tommy Bahama because real Republican snobs sport it, while parading their poodles through the pearl. You should too because we know I'm your hero.

Okay, crazy idea moment over here!
Halloween costumes: Mystery Men!
Alex: Mr. Furious (looks like the lone wolf rides....alone)
Radar: The Shoveller (you shovel well, you shovel very well)
Ope: Blue Raja! (I'll fork-give you if you fork-get)
Actually, this idea is retarded. Nevermind.
We need to refocus here people. The question at hand is if it is reasonable for said groom to request that Tink and Myself contribute $100 towards the purchase of the our groomsmen outfit.
Abazaba - I can relate to the "24 but I feel like I'm 19" thing. And I also still wear too much A&F, and sometimes wonder if I should dress a little more J Crewish.
Ope - I like the mystery men idea. Can I be the Amazing Spleen here in Texass?
Radar - Your fashion sense has improved dramatically since the Orange wife beater and coke bottle glasses. One of these days you will be on the same level as Tink and myself.

Sorry Snowy,
