Would you settle for lagers? Loggers?

Georg Hackl is despondent.

@Matt: Way to ruin a joke via poor html-skills, joke-ruiner.

I thought you were referring to the BLÄCK LÖDGE!

BLOGGERS?

"Vintage shoes" are encouraged, but not Keds, Converse, Doc Martins, or gladiator sandals? Moccasins are the most vintage shoes you can wear!

Those Armenian thongs are old school.

does anyone else think their "New Standard" looks a lot like J. Crew's "entire line since inception"?

HiredGoons (#603)

Standard JCrew = win.

Seasonal JCrew = fail.

I've been out of retail for a while, but are Hooter's waitresses required to dress in hot pants and a tank top when they're not at work?

HiredGoons (#603)

You make the mistaken assmption that they are dressed when not at work.
