I guess I have worn them so long I'm back in style! lol
I remember the Teddy Boys with their velvet collars and huge shoulder pads, DA haircut and worst of all, shivs or razors and bicycle chains hidden under their collars. They were also earmarked by what they wore as 'bad boys'.
The wheel of time just goes on around, different clothes different people, but the same.
In our younger days we had the greasers, then the mods and rockers, I suppose the punks came after them.
It is a downward slide into some sort of moral morass, yes, but we started it and now cannot stop it.
Just live with the fruits our own lives - they learned from us. But wouldn't it be nice if the lads weren't mooning so often. Embarrassing!
Ban them I say, and fine heavily anyone who wears one in public.
I always wonder, where do the parents think their little horror is at that time of night/morning?
There should be a curfew for the under 30's, they should be off the streets by 11pm, no exceptions, no excuses.
I lived in an area plagued by kids playing out at all hours, we retaliated by setting up trip wires, booby traps, electrified fences and snipers to pick-off the little loves. It was quite successful and quite a few of them were rushed to hospital with life threatening injuries!
