StylePoints: Why are you in such a rush to be old?

I’ve recently noticed that a disproportionate number of hashtagmenswear bloggers are college students. To them, I say: what the fuck is wrong with you kids? You have your whole life to dress like a grown man,and a small window in which you can indulge your more whimsical side. DON’T FUCKING BLOW…

What happened to being young and only caring about getting wasted, hanging out with your friends, being a complete dickhead and meeting girls? Clothes are great and looking put together is great, but when you are young you have the license to do so much more reckless and enjoyable shit than talk about clothes on the internet. Or document the evolution of your personal style. Or whatever it is you are blogging about. Waste your time doing that stuff after you graduate and you realize that your white collar job is killing your soul so much faster than you anticipated. That’s when you’re going to need a creative outlet so don’t burn yourself out. All of you have the rest of your life to work towards whatever unattainable goal the Internet and popular culture has convinced you is within reach as long as you have a cool Tumblr. Or just keeping doing whatever it is that you’re doing because it makes you happy. That’s totally fine too. In a few years you’ll be bitching to someone younger anyway.

Stay golden.
