The tribute scene in Clerks 2 is hilarious. Sorta disturbing, but hilarious.
EDIT: To keep the thread from totally derailing and to keep the question theme intact, I ask you this:
My wife was surfing the channel listings and mentioned that there is a show on Animal Planet called "Puppies vs Babies". What does it say about me that my first thought was that it's some sort of Thunderdome style cage match between the puppies and babies? And that if it is, I'd actually consider watching it? -

Are there any Danes on here that would consider proxying a book for me (to the UK)? Saxo seem to charging quite a lot for postage.

I have wondered this quite some time?
Why do people buy motorcycle clothes, especially jackets when they don't actually ride??
'cos they look good isn't the answer I'm looking for.Posers?? wanna-be bad boys? The image the black leather gives to others…(well, that is the bad boy thingy, I guess)
Please explain so that this simple soul understands?

Why do people buy deck jackets when they dont work on an aircraft carrier?
Why do people buy Everest parkas when they'll never go above the snow line?
Why do people wear board shorts when they can't/don't surf?
Why do I wear painters pants when I'm not a painter?
And I could go on for hours.The simple point is that there is a point in history where stuff derived from, we steal the look because we like it/it suits us/or whatever. Quite frankly it matters not a feck.
No group of people "own" a look, despite what they may think.

Same reason as people who don't, and never have skated wear Supreme, same reason as people wear running shoes with jeans, or logging boots when they're not loggers. Unfortunately "because they look good" might not be the answer that you're looking for IJ, but it is the answer.

And anyway, motorcyclists "borrowed" the look anyway:
"The classic motorcycle jacket really established itself not long after WWII. It’s at this point where the link from military flight jackets to highway style was forged. The ravages of war had taken its toll on some more than others, and many disaffected young men returning after the war found themselves unable to re-assimilate with society – they were lost. The camaraderie and feeling of belonging that came from being part of a military unit was wanting, and so, for some, it was replaced by taking to the road with other like-minded types, on motorcycles, and a new cult of highway style was born.
In the formative period of this culture the ‘motorcycle jacket’ per se didn’t exist. Only organisations such as the police had purpose made garments. For the young civilian motorcyclist a flight jacket was often the garment of choice – especially if it was his ex-service garment. (The ‘Hells Angels’ was the nickname given to the 303rd Bomb Group long before it ever became synonymous with the infamous outlaw bike gang. Aircrew actually painted the title on the backs of their flight jackets; it’s highly probable that this was the inspiration and source of gang's name). In the cult movie ‘The Wild One’ (1953) many of the jackets being worn by the tearaways are flight jackets."

"Why do I where painters pants when I'm not a painter?"
Well, this beats me…LOLI think I can understand the reasoning above.
Still, it makes me wonder....Black Leathers has quite steep "stigma" of badass, which the other examples of Giles do not.
Of course, if you're a badass...but then if you aren't... you should be able to stand behind this unspoken statement.
(doh, it's rather difficult to explain how quite many see this, I think Nem can understand what I'm after)
