    Yeah, I roll my eyes every time I hear the term “dad hat.” I’m like, oh you mean the way you’re SUPPOSED TO FUCKIN WEAR A HAT?!?!!
    I definitely prefer dad hats!
    The style, yes. The term, fuck no!  All that flat bill, high crown, leave the stickers on nonsense should be called "kid hats" or better yet "little fuckin douchebag hats."  What's next, not cutting the tags of your shirt and calling the normal way to wear it a "dad shirt?"  :lol:
    I call them mook hats, lol.
    I rock my "mook' hat yo!
    I meant the tall flat brimmed sticker hats are mook hats, not the dad hats, lol. Do you wear mook hats?? I thought you were too old for those! :lol:
    Hell no.  I wear them too.  Mook is the style so you go with it.

    I don't dress like a 20yo but I damn sure don't dress like an old fart either.

    I saw a guy at the airport in Chicago last night and I almost fell over....he was wearing a 'Supreme' outfit from head to toe.  Looked like biggest wannabe ever at age 50 or so.  The shoes, spandex under shorts, drawstring backpack, shirt, hat...just the fucking worst.

    More power to him -- certainly entitled to dress how you like, but I think trying to look like a teen when you are double (+) that age is pretty sad. 
    Perhaps it makes him very happy.  I hope so.  (He looked like a total clown.  Clowns can be happy.)

    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    Yeah, That is a little too much, lol.  

    I wonder how much he spent to get all of that gear?!?  Their stuff is 'spensive!

    They've got a muthaluvin Zippo!!! Holy shit!!!  For $250 you can kiss my butt though.

    Remember when wearing a "Supreme" outfit would mean a long sparkly gown and bouffant hairdo? Peppridge Farm remembers.

    Great idea  Gambs!  I do believe our esteemed pollster, Mr. Medoz, previously mentioned having already selected the albums he intends to poll, but I like you suggestions.  Who's Next is my choice, not only because it is a killer album, but because it would be a close race to the finish.  Every song is a winner and the least among them reaches a level few bands can boast having had on any album. 

    and Quadrophenia is even better!
    It's a great album but I'm kind of neurotic about it.  My brain goes about four different directions with that one.  Can you see the real me, can you?

    It's time to get to some proper 1980s rock - Joshua Tree or Appetite for Destruction.

    I'll take a scientific wild ass guess and say it going to be one by Boston.

    If you want to create some controversy, go with MJ's Thriller.

    If you want to make some go crazy, Licensed to Ill.

    Or maybe some kick ass rock.

    Hmm, Joshua Tree and rock are not 2 phrases I would put together. Achtung Baby rocks pretty good for a U2 album. I feel like Appetite is too easy because Sweet Child is the best song on there. Fun discussions would abound for sure though.

    Joshua Tree harder to to weed out than Appetite? It’s half amazing and half snooze fest. There are probably twice as many songs on Appetite that would compete for the top spot.

    Rocket queen is the clear winner on that album.

    You’re both fucking defective!

    I don’t know why you two are having so much trouble with this one. “It’s So Easy.”

    Not at all, I am in agreement with you. I was saying Joshua Tree is not rock. After Bullet I basically shut off that album. I think quality wise, Appetite only has a few songs that really deserve the honor. No matter how hard the songs rock, there are some pretty cringe worthy lyrics on that album. Don't get me wrong, It's So Easy was a song I loved to rock out to in my teens, but not so much now. It's like listening to a Limp Bizkit song now. Pure jock rock schlock. Go ahead and tear me apart for that comparison :)
