Why is the best part cropped out?

Hey, please don’t let the uninitiated hanging like that. :(

This looks AI generated, why didn’t he just get the clothes and take a damn picture? That way it wouldn’t look like shit
nightofmichelinstars@sopuli.xyz 11 months ago
The issue is that would, because it’s Elon.
Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 11 months ago
The real tragedy is that he didn’t stick to it. People who stop being willing to stand out make the world a more boring place.
snooggums@midwest.social 11 months ago
Hell yeah, people said “Howdy partner” to him. Fucking lean into that shit!

This is more fun if anon is in Italy or something.
bionicjoey@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
Given how many Westerns were from Italy (ie. Spaghetti Westerns), it would make some sense.
iknowitwheniseeit@lemmynsfw.com 11 months ago
Spaghetti westerns were called spaghetti westerns because the directors were Italian:
Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 11 months ago
That is why they said that.

Apparently there are a lot of Japanese people who are into cowboys so it would be funny and believable in Japan as wellm

“Who’s Steve the Pirate?”
“Literally the only player on the team that dresses up like a pirate?”
“We have a player that dresses up like a pirate?!”

“Well then who will I share all this treasure with”
Arrrrr???

Curse your sudden - but inevitable - betrayal!
Oh wait, wrong property.

You can do the cowboy look well. Ditch the long leather coat, the hat and the toothpick. Wear flannel button-ups and cowboy boots of a standard color with jeans of a standard color.
Don’t copy phrases from movies, but speak slowly and politely. Don’t do a strong accent, but it’s ok to do a mild accent. Instead of tipping a hat, give a significant, thoughtful head nod as a greeting.
Check out Sam from TrueBlood as a good example.

thats very specific advice
TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Not just flannel because that shit gets hot in the summer. There are pearl snap western cut shirts that you can wear in the summer that won’t kill you. They’re much thinner.
Otherwise, pretty good advice here. And Sam wore those western shirts in addition to flannel.
morphballganon@lemmy.world 11 months ago
You’re right, I was conflating the two.
odium@programming.dev 11 months ago
If you want what real current day cowboys wear.
-
Boots (no over the top clasps, spurs, and stuff. Go for something like this: www.justinboots.com)
-
Light blue jeans pants
-
white t shirt, can substitute a linen or seersucker button down if preferred
-
western hat
-
belt with big buckle (optional)

In most places, hats and coats are considered outerwear. You suggest someone wear a hat, and they’ll wear it everywhere.
I suggested ditching the hat (and coat) because people who dress for a theme, like OP, often let the theme override indoor/outdoor considerations.
Maybe in Texas they wear the hats indoors. But in most places, you go inside, you take your hat off immediately (and hang it up until you go back out).

As a 32x34 I’m stoked they have pants in my size ….
John_McMurray@lemmy.world 11 months ago
The working cowboys tend to dark jeans that show the dirt less.

Lean into it. And if all someone sees is something that happened years ago, fuck’em. They don’t know you.
cyborganism@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
Best thing to do is to own it, accept it and laugh with them at how cringe it was.
Alienmonkey@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Fake.
No one remembers Anon years later.
dohpaz42@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Eh, kids will be kids. I remember when I was I t he 6th grade there was a kid named Steven who only ever wore camo to school. Of course we all made fun of him. 😔 kids (and their adult versions) can be mean. I hope Steven turned out fine.
Rolando@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Wat. In my 6th grade if someone had worn camo all the time they would’ve been king of the class.
Godric@lemmy.world 11 months ago
In my 6th grade, wearing camo was so common it was utterly unremarkable. Only time someone got joked with was when a kid named Hunter wore a camo jacket with camo pants outside of deer season.
Two2Tango@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
When I was in highschooli n the late 2000s, country bars were all the rage so you would’ve fit right in
John_McMurray@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Probably should’ve hired on at a ranch and just kept going.
JokeDeity@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Just didn’t own it. Anyone with confidence could have made it work just fine.
NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 11 months ago
I got a cowboy hat once until my partner pointed out that men who wear cowboy hats always end up on the TV news with neighbours describing them as a “quiet man who kept himself to himself”, despite which “nobody saw this coming”.
Manmoth@lemmy.ml 11 months ago
Howdy partner!
Kingsjack123@lemmy.zip 11 months ago
Thinking? Obvously your giving yourself more credit then you deserver, partner!
peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
a kid with a infatuation? O no the horror. It’s fucking fine. If people want to laugh about it later in good spirits, awesome. If it’s not in good spirits, then congratulations you have identified a asshole. Someone not worth giving two shits about.
Also deadwood. That show is fucking awesome and I am not particularly fanatic about western or cowboy culture.
prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Deadwood was a show about Rome, rethemed to the old west because HBO already had ROME going on
peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Deadwood was about cops in a lawless place, not Rome. It was originally pitched as taking place in Rome, and the show ROME forced them to change the setting.
