What do people with a high I.Q do , rather than the above examples ? I use Cablz XL, it allows sunglasses to hang in front when not using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grumpy one Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 Turned up collars seem to be a bit gay. Being an Aussie with no sense of fashion, I think I will stick to my T shirts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little bastards were chewing my A$$ up last week, and I actually put the collar of my shirt up, while out snapping photos. Had to opt for trainers & sock vs open sandals, long pants & long sleeved shirt. Don't they realize it's hot out and they make thing annoying. Me too , when it comes to beer o'clock but the peskie little xxxxxxs can penetrate clothes unless you wear loose baggy attire . Also the high pitched sound as they circle your ears . The collar up stems from the 60s / 70s or maybe earlier . Shows your age Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shows your age Never did the collar up thingy, for style, always thought it was stupid, and don't like things high up on my neck. Always wear loose clothes, and can't stand tight restricting apparel, damn annoying. I avoided the 'disco' age, and more jeans, flannels & doobies for me. Inexpensive & practical ???? All cotton for comfort. 'Grease is NOT the way' ... ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of sunglasses include prescription lenses. What should they do when indoors? Maybe you shouldn't judge others based on such shallow reasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tropposurfer Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 I'm fair skinned and have had my collars up polo and other cricket and tennis gear since I was a primary school student descendent of the very best quality convicts in the antipodes.

V8M8 Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 (edited) Walker 88, sounds like you have had too much time tossing in the out dated Mullet. Very undignified behaviour Mate! Totaly off the track there and no appreciation for the reality of us golfers who sometimes must use the stand up shirt collar as a bit of sun protection.

spidermike007 Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 It was popular for about a minute, in the mid 1980s. Around the time Robert Palmer had a few hits. Some guys have a hard time embracing a more contemporary look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

proton Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 The standard of dress of many foreigners here is appalling, slouching about in shorts and singlets etc, if only they did wear polo shirts! but some of their wife's are as bad. Just the sort of low life farangs I steer well clear of, Big C Param 2.
