Or once every week and a half. I cannot grow a beard, or anything really.
I shave once a month. I love my facial hair.

Lol what the hell man, I'm #teamtucked. I know I sounded sarcastic, but I wasn't (not entirely).
Da fuck. You included teamtucked players in there.

So, was thinking about some Ray Bans. It says they are "prescription friendly." How does one go about getting prescription lenses in them?
I like these (not sure how they'll look on me though).

pretty easy. my optometrist did this for me with the exact pair of ray-bans back in 08 (though i got the oversized frames). it's no different from getting rx lenses in any other pair (and by rx, you mean clear ones, right?). i did the same thing again last november with the oversized clubmasters.

Interesting. I want them as prescription sunglasses. So I just order them as-is, then go into my eye doctor and have them order prescription sunglasses lenses that will fit?
EDIT:
Just checked with my Eye doctor and they said $259 to put prescription sunglasses lenses in them. Good god. Warby Parker has similar frames and gives you prescription ones for $150 total. May do that instead.
Just shop around. Most places here old me I would pay 180 for just the lenses. I ended uo getting wayfarers for 150 total.

Yeah, I'm checking with more places around here but am afraid that they will want me to be a patient of theirs to do it.

dang man, you don't have vsp or other vision insurance to take some price off the frames + lenses? or are you out of your coverage cycle? i think your eye doctor is trying to fleece you.
i paid $80 (including $10 copay) for my clubmasters + clear rx lenses thanks to insurance. the optometrist was able to order wholesale and i was mostly covered for the frames and lenses.

Sorry #tucked bros, I was too consumed with rage to see straight. Keep on fighting the good fight.

These tucked guys are more wound up than the shirts they stuff into their pants.

They're under more pressure than their shirt hems.

I just got contacts updated yesterday, so insurance was all used there. :\
Also fuck VSP for not covering contact fittings. I have insurance and the damn eye doctor visit cost me $160.

i wanted to type something nasty and break up over the phone but i didnt text back and now shes mad that i didnt call. she ruins my sweater and im in the wrong? she also spilled soda on my seat that sits on top of the sub in my car and after i flipped out she was like its just soda.........just soda on my dealer installed subwoofer
fuck her, gafs girlage simps wouldnt get it. but you guys gotta find me a good revenge strat before i dump her. this is the second shirt she ruined, i got it soaked in the sink right now

you should have slapped yourself for even considering running a bleach stick on such fine cashmere

you can probably get it on ebay for $10
Whoa whoa whoa. We're talking about a high school budget, not college here. Slow down big boi.

Yeah, through work. It's the only insurance we have that isn't very good, the rest of it is great.

Picture time!
Firstly, my much discussed (and now returned) SLP jean jacket, and the eastern corner of my very messy room. It's clean now, though.
So short!
Secondly, a little WAYWT, featuring my brand new Dior Homme suede boots. I think they are from A/W 2008, but the guy who sold them to me said they were Hedi era, so I'm not sure exactly what season they are from. Anyways....
Boots- Dior Homme
Cardigan- Trussardi
Jeans- Edwin (SLP is supposed to arrive any week, though).
Shirt- Splendid Mills

Whoa. You weren't kidding about the length of that jacket. Way too short. Good move on returning it.
Nice outfit btw.

jacket seems kind of a classic length but obviously doesn't work for you.
those boots look like hedi era but who knows. still looks cool tho.

Eh, I'm not a fan of short sleeve button up shirts. Of those two though the top one looks better.

Hey man when it's 90+ degrees out that short sleeve is gonna save your life. It would be my first short sleeve too.
for those into the goofninja aesthetic
Ovate is having a sale tomorrow, 25% off. Use code 25OFF at checkout.
other stuff:
yesterday i bought a pair of april 77s, sized 2 down. here's hoping the first couple of wears don't hurt too much. raw denim is a pain in the ass to deal with.
i also need boots with a small instep, any ideas

First one is way better. I've come around to liking short sleeve button ups (though I don't own any), but the sleeve length on both of those shirts looks off. Should be a little slimmer and higher up. Maybe you could roll/cuff them a bit? Regardless, pattern on the first shirt is way better.

short sleeves are trashy, like you wear it cause your car doesnt have AC

If that's trashy then you're at the landfill.

Yo, what's the consensus on this jacket?
I think it's really beautiful, but I'm not entirely sure how to wear it. If I get it, I might just end up copying the way it's worn in the Ssense editorial.

Yeah but you're thinking of it on your muscled up low fat body. You gotta think of it on my lack of muscle overweight body.

I think it looks cool. it's a pretty standard baseball jacket so you could probably wear it with just about anything, really. slp jeans and high tops would look cool.

yeah it's pretty bad, can't even determine thigh gap quality
