70's Sunday

I am in a blocked thought mode, and you know what that means! That's right, 70's ad time!

I chose a few that made me smile, er, made my jaw drop open a few inches. Holy cow! You cats were insane back in the day. If I saw a guy wearing these pants I'd just . . . well, I'd . . . Actually, I don't know what I'd do. There's no amount of coolness that can pass these off. Sorry. Nice mustache though.

Sorry, you'll have to click the picture to see the full thing. If you dare.



And this guy. Do you think they were going for the pissed-off trucker look? Cause that's what they got. The "Ultimate Fashion Climax". Whoa. Just whoa. So . . . is he man enough to fill it? For $45 bucks I certainly hope so. But maybe the hand on the waist is a bit much.



I don't know . . . I don't think I am. Nope. I've decided I'm not. Thanks for asking though.



Works on mustaches too. And we promise you won't look like Freddy Mercury.



"Don't look back, Bob. Don't look back."



Okay, I'm confused. Does he always drink it now and then, or does he sometimes drink it, but not always now, and sometimes then? And does he have to wear that suit? I need a drink.

  6. I just don't know if the excessive weirdo style of the 70's will EVER make a complete come back! I was there and I still don't remember it being this bad!
