Fuck people who don't carry cash

Nothings gayer than having to run your Visa for a pack of Bubblicious

40 bucks is the least I'll have on me; usually a couple hundred

I used to carry thick wads of 4-500 or so, but realized that I'm not as baller as I thought I was, so I stopped that

Still, I only like using the CC for major purchases

when i used to go to ac every weekend (and some weekdays) i'd keep three grips on me as walkin money... you never know when you'll get the urge to hop in the car when it's less than an hour away.

now i realize how silly it is

I think cargo pants on guys are cute. Not hot, but cute.

10/22/2008 2:50:46 PM

i dont really like cargo pants at all btw...like cargo shorts but the pants just look crappy to me

10/22/2008 2:51:54 PM

I think only taller guys can pull them off

Those big pockets make your legs look shorter, and at 5 9, I don't need be looking shorter

personally I like the cargo pants that have the zipper across the knees so you can zip them into cargo shorts...

"How the fuck do you sit down? Some of you people baffle me. "

Read a post earlier...I take shit out when I sit down.

But now that I've actually cleaned out my George Costanza wallet...I can keep that in when I sit down. And as far as the blackberry goes...I wouldn't keep that in my pants if I was wearing cargo pants anyways. I usually have it on vibrate or silent, so I like to have it on the table/desk/bar next to me when I'm sitting down. And if I have my ipod one me while I'm walking, I also usually have my briefcase or laptop case with me...so when I sit down my ipod goes in it.

I'm really not seeing the need for cargo pants here.

And...

I don't know why it's "out" either...it just is. And I don't wear them because they're "out"...I wear them because the last time I put a pair of cargo pants on in front of the mirror I thought it looked silly...so I guess that's what the rest of the "fashion world" saw also. And you don't need to be a fashion diva to notice fashion trends. I wear jeans and a t-shirt 99% of the time...but all it takes is noticing your surroundings or watching a little TV to see what people are wearing.

10/22/2008 2:57:39 PM

on the fashion totem pole, i'd put cargo pants right above jorts (so they're better). but some cargo pants are ok. i guess it depends on how they look.

cargo jeans are as bad as jorts. and jncos. because i think i remember jncos making some memorable cargo-ish jeans.

10/22/2008 2:59:12 PM

jncos are cool

How bout baggy pants?

Except when I'm wearing a suit, I still like to wear my pants really loose. 36 inch pants on my 33 waist. Not like my ass hanging out or anything, but enough that some consider it sloppy.

Some girls don't like my baggy jeans, but they're gonna like what's underneath 'em.

10/22/2008 3:02:07 PM

i always have cash but i'll definitely put some bubblicious on a debit card...10 transactions a month + estatements + direct deposit = 6% APY

some of the minor work i do for the university requires different cards for different colleges, since the colleges don't play together...my other clients all use their own security systems, as well, so i tend to have additional keys/cards for each one

I WEAR CARGO SHORTS AND I HAVE ONE PAIR OF CARGO PANTS SON. IT'S EXTREMELY NON-METRO ATTIRE SON.

10/22/2008 5:21:35 PM

bttt because this thread has me completely baffled. Except for slightly dressier attire, the only casual pants I own are cargo pants.

Fuck jeans. Haven't worn a pair in public since I was 8 years old or so. Never understood the appeal. I try one on nowadays, it just looks completely childish to me. And they make my knees itch. And the pockets are soooooo fucking small, I don't understand how people even fit a wallet and phone in there without them falling out or sticking out or bulging through in an obvious way (no homo or whatever is applicable here), much less how they sit down or walk around comfortably without having to do stupid shit like removing objects from your pants just to do something as basic as sitting (I know some of you see it as habit but... again, it baffles me. Shit like that is completely and totally unacceptable in the world of my pants).

As for normal khakis, I wear them when I want to look a bit nicer, but even then I can't shake the feeling that they look a bit silly with all that empty space.


Then again, most of you in this thread are probably working professionals or something. And are by now out of college. So it probably doesn't look anywhere near as normal. Or maybe I just fit the bill of

"I think only taller guys can pull them off"

Or maybe it's just fuck the haters, I'm going to carry my shit so comfortably and loosely that I don't even notice it's there. And without a lot of blank space all down my pant leg.


(Disclaimer: I don't wear anything like the garbage posted in pics earlier in this thread. No camo or huge-ass utility pockets or any of that. Those are guaranteed to look like shit on anyone unless your job involves actually needing to use them, in which case it's fine. No jorts or cargo jeans either, that shit is just weird.)

(Disclaimer 2: As though it's not obvious anyway, I really don't give a shit about fashion... unless jorts are involved, in which case I, like everyone else in the general area, want to hit the person wearing them in the face/crotch with a bat.)

I like cargo pants.

1/2/2009 4:29:46 AM

I wears them. I even once ripped the pockets off a pair of kackis so I could wear them to work. The seam imprint was still there, I dont give a fuck.

so why are you baffled then? Certain trends go out of style.

Whitewashed jeans (although it seems to be mandatory to own if you're in the NCSU band), Starter Jackets, Tevas, cargo pants/shorts. There's nothing to be baffled about if you consciously don't care about it. Do whatever grills your cheese.

I loves me some cargo pants. After some nice post-Christmas sale at Old Navy, I've got 4 or 5 pairs now, excluding my camo pants which have just as many pockets, they're just harder to see.

1/2/2009 1:17:15 PM

Sense when were men so fashion conscious?

1/2/2009 2:17:36 PM

It's nonsense since I carry cash, not cents.

Luckily I was able to convince my brother not to wear cargo pants to a new years party.

1/2/2009 7:34:41 PM

i like the kind that you can unzip to make capris and then unzip again to make shorts

what is so unacceptable about that

1/2/2009 8:44:08 PM

All of my shorts and most of my long pants are cargo. None of them are jean-cargos though (those just look stupid), they're all khaki-esque.

I'm really skinny though, and most things I wear look a little saggy, so it works, I think. If I was one of those freaks that wore tight pants, cargo pockets wouldn't work.

1/2/2009 8:53:06 PM

I wear my cargo pants to work proudly.
my cell, on-call cell, wallet, identification wallet, multi-tool, thumb drives, 8934279832748374 keys, gum, change/pocket angel, and a mini 6' tape measure. the cargo pockets make it possible to add my psp to the mix.
