    I laughed out loud at that! Awesome, tfox!

    Did you have to search the web long to find those or was it a website you're already familiar with? :D

    Pretty much the only time I wear camo in public is when I am going to and coming from hunting, although I did wear a pair of camo beach shorts this summer. Also, I could care less if someone else wears camo in public.

    That's actually a pet peeve of mine as well. When guys complain of having to dress up in shorts that are no different than what they normally where, only they don't have extra pockets.

    You're right, of course. We shouldn't judge others by their appearance, but we're all human, and it's human nature to do that very thing. It's probably a remnant of some survival instinct. You know, something along the lines of the need to identify a threat before the threat gets too close.

    I'll be honest enough to admit that if you look like you say you do and I met you, I'd be polite and just as respectful to you as I would anyone else, but in the back of my mind I'd be prepared for anything.

    I have to disagree with you and Hooker. :D

    There IS such a thing as "dress shorts". They look like an above the knee pair of Dockers. My wife likes to buy clothes for me and she's bought them before. I absolutely refuse to wear them. They remind me of the shorts I was made to wear to church when I was a kid. I have pictures of that somewhere, and no, I won't post them.

    That's my point, we all make judgement's just on appearance. Most of the time we are probably wrong, but it's human nature.

    99 percent of the time those Soldiers in uniform at Walmart are slobs. The duty uniforms aren't intended to be worn shopping, I hate it when I see it happening.

    Is this shirt considered Camo because if I go in the woods with it I surly would be confused to be a dominant buck. In public I think it shows class because of the detail.

    In all seriousness this shirt made me laugh hard when I found it. I might wear it in public for fun. As for Camo, a hat is as far as I go. I will wear Camo shorts doing yard work. I personally don't wear more than that but I feel it's all dependent on the setting you are in / where you live. I live outside of Boston, I don't need to go to the store wearing hunting gear.

    I think I have found the perfect toms for hook.

    Which pair do you guys think fit him best?:D

    Nothing says I'm secure in my manhood like a pair of pink camo toms.

    Or maybe just a touch of sequence.
