I've looked through the entire comments section here, and I'm still bewildered by the low-cut socks.

Punisher skull, either as a poorly done tattoo or somewhere on their vehicle.

Don't forget both a Gadsen Flag and Thin Blue Line bumper stickers

[–] Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 8 points 8 hours ago

Definitely on the rear window of their truck.

What's with the socks and Phil Collins? I do not know the deep lore.

[–] etherphon@piefed.world 2 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

Phil Collins could be an American Psycho reference perhaps, but idk why they wouldn't use Huey Louis - Sports instead.

[–] FerretyFever0@fedia.io 12 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

Fear of thigh highs, perhaps.

I just don't like how they feel on my legs :/

Games Without Frontiers?

Why is Phil Colins there?

Even if it wasn't the complete opposite, I don't know why anyone would put it with this group

[–] DakRalter@thelemmy.club 3 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Maybe it's the title, "In the Air Tonight"?

[–] givesomefucks@lemmy.world 5 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago)

Cuz it's not the Tupac version?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqZuKjJiuQA

But like, even before Tupac did that, I'm 90% sure "In the air tonight" was literally the song that made Phill blow up with the Black community specifically.

He got sampled a lot and would feature on tracks, which is common now but not 30-40 years ago. But I'm pretty sure all that was because of the original version of this song.

Erectile dysfunction meds.

Needs a pair of 3Xl jorts, with a gut spilling over the waistband.

[–] starik@lemmy.zip 5 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Or cargo pants with an elastic waistband

[–] Greddan@feddit.org 3 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) (1 children)

Hey, don't shit on cargo pants with elastic waistbands. As a very tall and slim man I have trouble finding pants that are long enough while still staying up, especially as I like to gain a few extra kg of fat before the winter months (which are then lost come spring). Also the more pockets I have the better. Cargo pants with elastic waist and adjustable built in belt strap are peak pant technology.

[–] starik@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 hour ago

They are quite functional

[–] starik@lemmy.zip 9 points 12 hours ago

Tacticool gear

[–] voxthefox@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Those calves are way too toned for this population

[–] Someonelol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Have you seen the mass of flesh those things need to ambulate? They're the only part of the body that has some tone.

[–] teslekova@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Am a fat man, you're totally correct. It's weird. The rest of me is flabby but those suckers are like steel.

[–] bus_factor@lemmy.world 1 points 7 minutes ago

Probably more muscular than the stalks pictured, though? Those are the legs of a skinny man.

Are truck nuts still a thing ? What about misspelled tattoos
