Today, I got into a huge fight with a girl at school. My mom and dad decided to punish me by letting my three older brothers pick out my wardrobe for the next week. FML

Burn anything you have that you don't want to be seen wearing in public. That hideous reindeer sweater in the back of your closet... Yeah, BURN IT NOW.

I hope your brothers are metrosexual;)

20 - The way you dress really does say a lot about the person you are.

As much as we'd all like to believe that's true. It really isn't. Fashion, clothes, appearance; they really do matter.

46 no it doesnt I've seen people who dressed to impress and live in a dump now sence u think you're so smart tell me how does that work

80- Comment 46 didn't say fashion dictates your success, the comment said fashion shows who you are as a person, which is true. It's a way to express yourself. So unless you think expressing yourself doesn't matter, there's really no reason to disagree with the comment.

#95-- It doesn't necessarily express yourself. What if your parents only allow you to wear certain clothes? What if your school/job/religion has a strict dress code? What if you simply can't afford nice clothes? I would hate if people thought I was a bad person just because I couldn't afford the kinds of clothes I wanted...

The people who say that usually look like bums..

You don't know what I look like, so you can't really make that judgment. But fyi I don't look like a bum, thanks. (Though like I said, it shouldn't matter.) But it's not like I have all the money in the world or the permission to dress the way I like. I know plenty of perfectly nice people who can't afford nice clothes. I know plenty of horrible people who dress nicely or "fashionably". Based on your comment, I'm going to assume you're the latter. :) I personally think that the only standard for dress should be that you're clean and modest. There's no need to push certain styles or types of clothing onto others. :P

46 no it does not a pice of cloth u use to not show your skin doesnt really reflect who you are

Fashion really does matter. In your private life? Not so much. But try going to a job interview wearing ripped jeans and a t-shirt. I'm sure they'll be impressed.

Unless you were defending yourself against an attack, YDI. Plus, points to your parents for being creative. I'd rather be grounded versus having my brother pick out my outfits. After this week is over, I bet you'll think twice about fighting next time!

The first few days are fun, but they'll get tired of it and accept bribes... How much money do you have saved up?

I can never finish. My parents send me in a time machine so I repeat the same day over and over again. I've been doing the same math problem for over 10 years now.

June 8th! Next year we end May 31st

Try some reverse psychology. When they propose an outfit or combination you don't like, say "Wow, you guys have great taste. I was worried you would pick something else". Keep doing that until they pick something you like and then scream "No way will I be seen wearing that". This should buy you a few days at least before they catch on. Good luck with that.

That will teach you not to fight at school
