I meant that about what I said. That it's mainly appearance-based
What if I donβt give a shit what kids think of me and I ignore their annoying asses the whole time?
Then go ahead, be my guest! Just answering, y'know, the question of the post mainly.
How should I dress?
You aren't OP and the original comment you replied to was not addressing you. Dress how you want.
The point is fair, if you want to fit in at any event, because you do in fact care, then it helps to dress in a manner that suits the general style of that event.
If you don't care, wear what you want. I'm not sure why you are getting offended by something so trivial that was not directed at you.
It's how human nature works, before you meet sometime, all you can judge them on is their appearance. Are they wearing a filthy beard and rags at a concert? Probably a crazy hobo. Are they past middle age and wearing a mankini? Probably a big borat fan and a bit of a weirdo.
It's not a difficult concept and you don't have to care if you don't want to. It's all good.
The whole point of public comments is so that people can give you shit and everyone else can see how you canβt take a joke.
I thought the point of public comments was to have an interesting discussion with people you don't know, but if you want to make it about giving people shit then all good for you. Trolling is so boring really.
