is it /fa/ to listen to Chance the Rapper while I drunkenly drink a 40 of O.E. in the shower? More importantly I want to push myself to become /fa/shionable while I work to become /fit/. was wondering if there was any kind of entry level thing I should read about how to be /fa/. Would definitely think that someone was pleb tier for how they dressed but I really have nowhere to start. Need somewhere to start.

I browse this board a decent amount but I really cant find a trend or really a theme(which is is the reason there isnt a sticky for how to be /fa/ I think). One of you fucks should point me in a direction. I end up with like 400 dollars(US) a month to spend on shit I want. I'd devote a portion of that if it meant I would look presentable.

>worth mentioning I'm drunk of said 40 oz.
will be monitoring for a few days

how about the fucking sticky?

>>7489866
**would definitely like to think**\

fucking 40. Got a nigga on tilt. Also I'm in moderate shape for a 20 year old white male. Will bring forth what info I need to for help.

Please keep in mind I dont have a huge knowledge of brand names. But at the same time from what I've gathered its not just the clothes that make things /fa/

>> No.7489888

I've investigated the sticky as much as I have the one for /fit/, mate.

I need more info. I'm trying to do this to the best of my ability.

Acidrap is the most overhyped hip hop album this year

thats up to opinion. While I dont know if its overhyped or not... I still am enjoying it as I usually revert back to the 80 metal albums I most enjoy after whatever's new comes and goes.

not exactly sure what a zyzz picture is. it was just a picture I felt worthy of starting this thread. it was one of many I had in my folder. And who from the 90s didnt love Hey Arnold? Here's another picture that was in the runnings.

Would still like some advice. Getting more responses in this thread than I thought I would so quickly. This board moves a little quicker than I imagined. Or has more people visiting it at least

definitely not Australian, mate. Live in Olympia, Washington. USA, sir. Is zyzz some kinda ongoing thing for this board? But for real. Someone drop some starting knowledge on me. Maybe it would help if I told how I dress to work or on my days off?

There isn't really a comprehensive sticky for /fa/ because fashion is more personality bound, and making a sticky like that makes you look dressed by the internet.
Reddits' Male Fashion Advice (from now on MFA) has these info-graphics and it's painfully obvious when someone has read all of those and a day later bought a new wardrobe.
You need to lurk on these forums a bit to get an idea of how YOU want to dress, the very basics are at least handled in the sticky if I'm not mistaken.

My own go to basic-bitch uniform is this:
Black Doc Martens 1461s or Adidas Plimcanas
Black, slim jeans
Some solid color shirt,T-shirt or sweater
Depending on the weather a Harrington, an olive army jacket/parka or a black parka.

Dress sportswear, like how everyone dresses in Yung Lean's latest video.

I just bought some sample nikes to complete my urban ninja look holla

you got drunk off one 40?
being a lightweight is NOT /fa/

Chance the rapper is actually pretty good, i'll give him his props.

but he is not drinking-in-the-shower-drunk good.
to be in that situation and keeping it /fa/ you would need chopped and screwed and/or Lil Ugly Mane.

drunk posting on /fa/ is VERY /fa/
drinking OE is VERY /fa/

Chance the rapper is a good rapper but his music is NOT /fa/
it's too happy.

Ugly Mane is undisputedly /fa/

/fa/ is decidedly NOT /fa/

ideally you'll want to not drink except on rare occasions, but if you're already /fit/ i guess you know what you're doing.

>>7490074
this post contains info that I'm fucking looking for. Essentially telling me whats good and what not good( /fa/ and what's not) is what I need at this point. Color schemes and the like would probably help. The very best I could ask for is for someone to tell me how to dress for a day with $100 I supposed. If I was to get exactly what I want from this thread. I'd like to expand on that though. I like wearing shirts with my favorite fighting game characters on it and that doesnt seem to fit in anywhere

that's something you'll learn quickly:
there is ONE good trip on /fa/ and his name is dr. mario AKA me.

>I like wearing shirts with my favorite fighting game characters on it
Good. It won't take long to improve:
Stop doing that.

there, now you're one step closer to being /fa/.

solid color tees are 10000000x more /fa/ than graphic tees.

>> No.7490123

>>7490101
>>7490110
this is a huge bummer to me. Perhaps there are exceptions to this? Lest I scrap half of my shirts in the effort to become /fa/

and to dr. mario.
This is one of the only boards I go to that doesnt flame trip-fag stuff. teach me

>>7490123
>This is one of the only boards I go to that doesnt flame trip-fag stuff
lurk more. there are so many shitty trips on this board it's amazing i haven't killed myself for being associated with them.

>Perhaps there are exceptions to this?
see, you need to lurk more.

like getting /fit/, it doesn't happen over night.
the FIRST thing you'll learn is to throw away graphic tees.
there are always exceptions, but very, very very rarely does the exception involve video game characters.

even though I have a Charizard shirt and a Mario shirt and i'm more /fa/ than anyone but I don't wear them except in the right situations like adderall binging at home (very /fa/ btw).

like getting /fit/, you don't become /fa/ overnight.

just remember, and i'm being one hundred percent sincere here:
the most vocal posters, and the fits that get the best ratings is the elitist side of the board.
it's like the guys on /mu/ who say that korean bathroom voyeur feild recordings is the only good "real" music.

it isn't practical to try to dress like /fa/, in a typical, realistic setting. that's why i said /fa/ isn't /fa/

these guys are all clowns and do gay stuff 24/7.

Good point. I love fits like pic related, they're /fa/, but you're not going to be seen as /fa/.

>> No.7490178

>>7490153
and oh yea, i know you want to dress better thinking it'll get you girls.
don't deny it.

dressing for women is very NOT /fa/
and it's counter productive as well.

ESPECIALLY the stuff you see on /fa/ because girls will throw up on themselves, turn dyke and eat their rotting grandparents corpse before even THINKING of going down on you, if they saw you wearing this stuff.

of course, it's all relative.
mostly to location.

if you roll with an /fa/ crowd and live in a city with a lot of /fa/ shit, that's one thing.
otherwise, just be smart and practical.

video game tees are pretty bad.
not as bad as anime and Xmen shirts, but bad enough to throw away.

>> No.7490190

all the information from this thread is going to have to processed in the morning when I wake up. 2 and 1/2 40s deep and I've taken to singing everything I do at this point.
but >>7490178
>video game tees are pretty bad.

I for some reason feel like the ones I rock would be somehow able to fit into the trend that I've been seeing. Of course I'll post pictures later to see if I'm wrong(probably). But I can appreciate those that have posted in this thread thus far. I've expanded my knowledge at the very least,
