I'm sure some of you have already seen people wearing "Affliction" shirts, they're the overtly false-badass looking retards walking around talking about MMA fighting or HARDCORE music.
Affliction is what you wear if you want to look like you care about bands but don't actually know anything about them. If you are the biggest poser piece of shit in the world, you probably own some Affliction brand clothing.
Affliction Brand Clothing is so HARDCORE!!!!!!!!!
It took me all of two seconds to find this shirt and what it has tried to rip off / mimic.I cannot think of anything more pathetic than trying to mimic the look of a Band-merch shirt by buying a generic band-looking t-shirt with a company logo on it. Basically, in a nutshell...
Affliction is the Abercrombie & Fitch of the "underground" clothing look.
Don't believe me? Next time you're at a bar, at the movies, out and about, take a look at some of the rejects who wear this shit. They have no social identity of their own and want to belong to something that they care/know nothing about, while simultaneously putting on a facade as if what they are doing is somehow cool or unique.
It's like people who buy all of their clothes from HotTopic, only worse, because instead of having a "creepy / weird / goth" poser influence, it's a "hardcore / brutal / TESTOSTERONE MAN POWER" poser influence.
I seriously didn't think this could be any more pathetic, then I saw this promotional video for the Affliction brand:
Is there anything gayer than an over-the-top promotion of "MANLINESS"? Also, shame on you, Ozzy Ozbourne, you have failed us all.
There is nothing cool about supporting a generic hardcore-esque movement.
If you like a band, buy a BAND T-SHIRT, you stupid FUCK. Wearing something that looks like a band shirt does not make you cool or knowledgeable about anything. It just makes you a clueless idiot who wants to belong but never will.
