Here's how to get your *** kicked...........
good stuff

[Sooner Born Sooner Bred]

Heh. . .
Here's how to get your *** kicked pretty much anywhere:

I'll bet these guys do ok with the ladies. If you look at that picture quickly, it looks like Mr. Bob "No-pants" Saget has his hand in the other guy's pocket. In this case, he doesn't, although you can tell just by looking at them that it's happened - or if it hasn't happened it will. Oh yes. It will. As soon as he puts down his color-coordinated coffee cup.

I am so getting one of these.

[frankensooner]

I really should scan some of the old pics of me when I was a kid and my folks dressed me like Herb Tarlek.

[TopDaugIn2000]

my dad probably still has some of that ****, waiting for it to "come back"

[sanantoniosooner]

You can make fun of those clothes all you want, but a few things are clear:

We knew how to pull our pants up.
We tucked a shirt, or didn't.
Flip flops were for the beach.
We only wore ski caps when it was cold.

[Widescreen]

This is pretty much all my grandfather wore at home when I was growing up.

Why don't you find a Kohls ad from the 70's for us?

We wanted to bury my Grandpa in his, because that's all he wore. :D

But my grandma and mom killed that idea.:O

SCORE! My favorite cereal growing up. I thought they stopped making it until I ran across it at Wal Mart a couple of months ago.

The point of this thread is '70s carp.

I think I know why you are all red.

[Sooner Born Sooner Bred]

You know, Howzit was a competitive swimmer back in the day. I bet he wore something similar to the dude in blue.

sheee
That could be one of my little brothers.
Whoever wrote that obviously wasn't around or paying attention, or else he wouldn't have been so harsh on that TOTALLY GROOVY stuff. :cool: :rolleyes:
I hope I live to see something like that about the 00s. :D



Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months.

Actually it's because I posted an article link that had already been talked about earlier, yet it had a totally different thread title that didn't indicate it was about that topic.

[sanantoniosooner]

we'll boil it down to being generally annoying ;)

MACHINE WASHABLE?!?!?!

SHUT.

UP.

[Widescreen]

Where's the picture of Freebird Howzit? That would fit in nicely here.

[Sooner Born Sooner Bred]

SHUT.

UP.Yeah, I wonder if that means underdrawers were dry clean only before that?

http://bp2.blogger.com/_8KVGEZEUltI/Rw-Ll-2S0aI/AAAAAAAAATs/y7qnHacDceo/s320/77-3.jpg

I think I had this shirt.

[Okla-homey]

I have a theory why those fab mens fashions went away.

Besides the fact they were ugly, the fit of the clothes just won't work now. See, we've become a nation of lard-a$$es and thus, we go about untucked, and comparitively disheveled. We like our "loose fit" pants and shorts because our flab won't comfortably fit into anything else.

If men had to wear closely tailored tucked shirts and close fitting pants, a great many of us would be very embarrassed.

[dog-knee]

Yet another '77 grad here (Miami High School --- Go Wardogs!). The only thing missing from the pictures is a brown leisure suit with yellow stitching. Also, a nice close up of the stacked-heel shoes would have been nice -- I liked being six foot three while those shoes were in style.

[StoopTroup]

I got the same response from girls when I wore those. :D
