New Dress Code

[Cruznut2]

Many of us "Old Folks" (those over 50, WAY over 50, or hovering near 50) are quite confused about how we should present ourselves. We're unsure about the kind of image we are projecting and whether or not we are correct as we try to conform to current fashions. Despite what you may have seen on the streets, the following combinations DO NOT go together and should be avoided:


1. A nose ring and bifocals

2. Spiked hair and bald spots

3. A pierced tongue and dentures

4. Miniskirts and support hose

5. Ankle bracelets and corn pads

6. Speedo's and cellulite

7. A belly button ring and a gall bladder surgery scar

8. Unbuttoned disco shirts and a heart monitor

9. Midriff shirts and a midriff bulge

10. Bikinis and liver spots

11. Short shorts and varicose veins

12. Inline skates and a walker



And last, but not least . . . my personal favorite:

13. Thongs and Depends

toooooo funny. but so true.

i have a few of those things, but have enough fashion savvy not to wear some of the others you mentioned. it is amazing to me the things i see in the malls and on the streets now. i hope when i get on the ship i am in constant contact with some of the '' new fashion statement attire '' for the whole 7 days hahaha.

Cruznut..i got you beat on the last one..Depends now makes a thong..>EG<

Some of those things can apply to the younger generation as well. I se lots of youg folks wearing stuff they shouldn't.

Can you imagine today's younger generation when they get old? Kinda scary isn't it?
