Most people dress very boringly.

They do though.

I'm sure the AMA is given with good thought and well done to the progenitor.

However.

It's all a bit rubbish isn't it?

How do you dress then? Not being goady

ImNotEntirelySureAboutThat · 26/11/2022 00:47

@bouquetofnofucks

Not boringly.

I'm a goth and dress accordingly. Some people are very frumpy and some are not. It depends on what your own tastes are as to whether you find the way people dress boring.

I dress quite boringly but wear pink glasses. Does that count?

JanglyBeads · 26/11/2022 00:53

So apparently most people dress terribly and according to your other thread, most cook dreadfully.

Do tell us where we're all going wrong OP?

Ponderingwindow · 26/11/2022 00:55

Do you think it makes you a better person if your clothing isn’t “boring”? Are you inherently more interesting?

Why does it matter to you what other people choose to wear?

DennySaid · 26/11/2022 00:57

I really enjoy thinking about what to wear. I like to go interestingly off piste occasionally, clothes-wise - but usually I don’t have the time to manage stylish and highly unusual. I prioritise stylish, but I have lots of hobbies that aren’t ‘getting dressed’ and life is a bit short.

ErrolTheDragon · 26/11/2022 00:58

Most threads started late Friday night/early Saturday morning are boring.
This seems to be one of them.

I think you should dress to match your personality, op.
Why don't you try a dripping wet brown sack tomorrow?

The OP has started similarly smugly dismissive thread about "other people's" cooking on AIBU.

Friday night, goady thread and new to MN.

Don't engage.

Hmm and

jtaeapa · 26/11/2022 01:57

I dress boringly. I think it’s boring to give a shit about clothes and prefer to spend my time and energy on more important things. Also, it means none of my clothes need separating to wash as they are all dark colours.

StopThe · 26/11/2022 02:01

Yawn

Dollydea · 26/11/2022 02:03

My dress sense is boring and comfortable.

If I dressed any other way then people would notice me.
Why would I want that?

Stayathomenamechange · 26/11/2022 13:18

I kind of agree, but I am one of the boring ones myself most of the time. I plan lovely outfits in my head, but when I'm rushing in the morning I tend to think "oh this'll do". At last year's school play 85% of the mums (again, including me) were wearing jeans and a stripy top!

I am a dull dresser. I embrace comfort over style. I err on the side of classic over fashionable. If I am most people then you are correct OP.

Isseywith3witchycats · 26/11/2022 15:35

i dress biker style black tops with skulls and grim reapers etc and gothy lace and ribbons ones and jeans with black knee length boots with buckles over my jeans im not a boring dresser

Amboseli · 26/11/2022 15:38

@jtaeapa me too! Thinking about clothes is boring and I'd much rather be doing something else. As long as my clothes are clean I literally don't care what I wear.

This.

VerityKnox · 26/11/2022 15:48

Fashion is boring.

If you want to invest time and money in looking ‘different’ or whatever your definition of ‘not boring’ is, go ahead. Enjoy!

I can’t be arsed. I just want to be clean, comfortable and reasonably well presented.

704703hey · 26/11/2022 15:54

I don't really care if I look boring!

But we express ourselves in different ways, if you want to spray can your hair and wear statement garments go right ahead.

MarshaBradyo · 26/11/2022 15:55

Most people…

clothes / food

There must be more versions to do
