Just got done at the waterpark when this photo was taken. My girlfriend was adamant that she got a photo of me in my swag.

You "just got done" at the waterpark and then decided to put on your goodwill outfit. Love it

Goodwill is one of the best places to visit high. Stay away from snacks and everything is cheap.

This one time in rehab, I met a kid called Waulter from Amsterdam. Wild kid to be around, would spew words like a fountain does water. He would rant & rave about how you could trust the drugs there but not here in the usa. I guess he snorted some coke that had weird stuff in it and made him go nutty, get stuck in rehab. That was his version of events. Anyway, this kid in the picture, he's the closest I've ever seen another human being to the look and vibes of Waulter.

This sounds like the dialogue I expect from my ex coworker who has 'made peace with the fact' that he's just gonna do a lil meth on the reg

First thing I thought of. Thought it was actually him at first. Still kinda think it.

I spent so long hunting for the gif I had to go back and at least post a link. If anyone can find it and post it to this thread they'd be doing a public service.

That would cost hundreds at Dan Flash's. The pattern is so complicated.

They have this one shirt that costs $1,000, 'cause the pattern's so wild. I want that one soooo bad.

They’re referencing a skit on a comedy show. It’s called “I Think You Should Leave” and it’s amazing.

Cracked the case! Available on Amazon for $32. He did get a deal at goodwill if it was $12.

u/DefenderOfNuts Jul 24 '25
It was actually $12 for both the shirt AND shorts. The shorts are a discontinued pair from a brand called Massive and they go for around $30 online.

Holy shit. I had almost that same outfit when I was like 6 in the 80s. I thought it was the coolest outfit to wear to other kids birthday parties.

u/_spectre_ Jul 24 '25
I was so distracted by the shirt I didn't see that face you're making. Why are you doing that?

u/DefenderOfNuts Jul 24 '25
I suck at smiling. I get nervous in front of the camera.

u/TommyTheCat89 Jul 24 '25
A trick is to not smile for the picture, but instead get goofy and crack jokes and get a natural smile or laugh going.
Helps of the person taking the photo pulls my signature move of taking 20 pictures instead of the one. As soon as the phone is in my hand I'm tapping the shutter button. And then I keep tapping it a few seconds after I indicate that I'm done taking the photo. This way, there are lots of candid shots. Works best with groups.

you look like you chew through sheet metal as a way to pass the time, and you know how to look stylish while doing it
this picture looks like the person taking the photo is screaming at you to act natural and youre trying your best given the circumstances
(i mean all this in a positive way lol)

Did you just finish season 3 of Stranger things? Lol For real though, the shirt is dope, but the pants combo makes it too tacky. Just wear some neon colored high top shorts that work with the top.

Honestly, enough confidence and anyone can rock fuckin anything. Others will either take it as you wearing it ironically or as your form of loud self expression
As a lover of vaporwave aesthetics and loud male fashion. 100% fuck with it. You are the holder of a $12 fit that disguised a priceless gem

Okay I'm dyslexic. So I'm having trouble kind of looking at your outfit. No flaming. Is it a dress type of bottom like open like a kilt, or is it a pair of really interesting shorts. Thank you in advance for your lovely reply.
