Then there's the nighttime lady handbag with brown shiny plastic and fuzzy leopardskin. It's a whole different phenom from wearing a corporate logo.<br /><br />Greg: I'm against it, for now. I'll set one aside, intact, in case we decide to swap tokens. xocookiecrumbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00741894180391507513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12774302.post-6589259746877492662011-01-07T12:49:17.298-08:002011-01-07T12:49:17.298-08:00Call me crazy but I would so wear that cap.

Tighter. No fun, and a possibility of snagging the black hat material. (I DO have a seam ripper.)<br />If somebody wants to wear an ad, that's OK by me. I just don't want to wear a "Look who I think I am" hat, logo be damned.<br />(Well...

I'm with you on the brand stuff - shirts and bags and hats and purses, oh boy! The sad think is that a lot of people think that they are classy by blandishing something that is free advertising for some rip-off company.Nancy Ewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12116290968007398337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12774302.post-22508223266619817662011-01-07T10:17:45.185-08:002011-01-07T10:17:45.185-08:00Kate: Fun, young Kate!

Here it is:<br />"Just too, too predictable for you? Back when the little alligators on the breast of one's tennis shirt were the only visible branding (yes, I can remember back that far), I even hated the alligators."<br /><br />Well, that's a good example. I remember Cranky having a shop owner carve off the Girbaud label from a pair of jeans. And that was way back, too.cookiecrumbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00741894180391507513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12774302.post-90613739635951733822011-01-06T15:33:54.185-08:002011-01-06T15:33:54.185-08:00Zoomie: I agree.

It's that if you wear a Saveur cap, you're giving the impression that you think it's OK to proclaim yourself a foodie. In public. shudder. Ditto NPR -- "I listen to Fresh Air." Of course you do, you middle-aged white person!<br /><br />Kate: Wow, I hadn't thought of vandalizing it! Pulling apart that embroidery would be a gargantuan task, though. I think I like the idea of besmirching "SAVEUR" to where you can still just barely read it. That's a message!<br /><br />Mouse: This hat was stitched by the fingers of 10,000 blind Bhutanese orphans. Yeah, all 20,000 fingers on this one hat. It'll be a tough job. Heh. Want one? I got two.

You can get other color sharpie markers too, if you have a logo on something in a primary color. Surprisingly, even though the color match is rarely perfect, the logo ends up fairly inconspicuous. And then I feel like I've stuck it to da man a little bit.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18017959421018964001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12774302.post-51005993736522309322011-01-06T13:59:50.459-08:002011-01-06T13:59:50.459-08:00I'm always amused by people wearing branded cl...I'm always amused by people wearing branded clothing - don't they realize that they are free advertising for the company?
