But really, it is mostly a jeans and t-shirt kind of board we have here. So the jeans might be skinny and the t-shirts might be embellished or homemade, but it's still jeans + t-shirt. And no reason to single out a guy with piercings and eyeshadow and say that it's unacceptable. Those are the photos I like. They disrupt the monotony of this thread (a monotony which I also contribute to).

I agree that there is somewhat of a board uniform, which applies to music, film and what not on here too. Which is quite obvious though, really, considering that is why everyone has accumilated here - Sonic Youth, therefore other similar interests may arise too.
But I disagree on the board uniform you have suggested. I believe there's only like a few others on here who wear tight jeans and we seem to be ridiculed for that when it's mentioned (like you now, I guess). I do see a shit load of Dinosaur shirts and Chuck Taylors though. although the latter is fairly common these days, whatever you're into.
I also disagree with piercings and eyeshadow being unnaccetable (atleast not to me). Unless you were referring purely about this board in general, but that'd make sense considering it is the board it is - I'm sure if you went to the Good Charlotte (which I make no intention to offend anyone by the use of this band) message board or many of the popular bands of today, you'd be ridiculed for wearing jeans and chuck taylors and a Dinosaur Jr shirt.
Plus, I recall a few people being shit on for the way they look in this thread, me being one. So you don't have to wear eyeshadow and have an immense amount of piercings to get a few naysayers.
