Sorry to hear this, Chili. And that guy is beyond tacky. He's cold, selfish, stupid, and lame.

Nice to see you Brad! How's school - wait, residency? Intership? Crap, I'm sorry, I forgot. How's things?

I'll add:

Men who leave their hats or caps on during the anthem at a sporting event.

People who cheer, clap, cat-call, screech, yell, etc. before the national anthem is finished.

I don't judge people Brandon! Just because they're dressed tacky doesn't mean I think they're an asshole.

And it's skorts, btw.

Female singers who leave their hats on while they are taking a bow.

He also had a man-purse, from a distance I thought he was a middle-aged female tourist.

Hi! Nice to see you too! Things are going well. I'm still on my nice long three-month break. I start orientation next Wednesday, then my residency (my internship is built into my residency as the first year) starts July 1. I'm about to be in for a rude awakening when I can't sleep til 10:00 anymore!

Take care, and I'm sure I'll be back with more tacky!

Brad

People who wear hospital scrubs out in public. I mean, hey, if you're on lunch I understand. But at the mall or a picnic with your family?

Shirts that say "No fat chicks" or "I'm with stupid."

Wedding headbands that go across the forehead & go down into a V, with a bead dangling down between your eyebrows.

Unmanicured brows. They don't have to be thin, but trim those f*ckers once in a while!

All I have to say is I'm happy I live in San Francisco because I never see most of the stuff you are all talking about, except with some tourists on the cable car. We have our problems, but tackiness ain't one of them.

I've seen some men wearing things I wouldn't recommend... mainly various forms of too tight/too young shirts w/larger bellies.


Otherwise, I don't see these things, either.

Oh, and I really, really, really, really hate french tip toe manicures, too. I'm not sure if they're tacky, I just think they are extremely ugly. Long toenails REALLY gross me out.

I know, I saw you said that and was reminded of how very, very gross long toenails are. I think they should be well below the top of your toe. Sadly, that actually is something I see quite a bit of, here.

I always wonder how people with long toenails wear shoes/socks..I mean don't they get in the way?

I would agree that they're gross. I take great pride in my feet and my toenails are always trimmed to perfection...I can't understand how one can even let them get remotely long *shudder*
