How to Get Laid in 1977 and Your Ass Kicked in 2007

It's amazing what 30 years can do. It can take you from one cool cat who can pick up the ladies to a total douche who risks getting his ass kicked everytime he rounds a corner.

What it said in 1977: A man needs to relax and get comfortable with a color wrap or nightshirt before he makes love to his woman

What it says in 2007: Somebody has a gay karate class


What it said in 1977: Small tie= Big Mansicle
What it Says in 2007: I'm hoping to attract young boys that this tie may actually fit







What it said in 1977: I like wearing one piece clothing so I can slip out of them quickly
What it says in 2007: I have just escaped from prison and if you pick me up I will kill you



What it said in 1977: I can afford a nice belt and I'm going to hike my Toughskins up so you can see the damn thing
What it says in 2007: I am homeschooled and my Mom is still breastfeeding me





What it said in 1977: We will not be leaving the bedroom tonight so there's no need to worry
about getting this pristine white jumper dirty. There's only one stain you'll have to worry about tonight
What it says in 2007: I work in the cafeteria at the mental institution



What it said in 1977: I'm the first one who rocking the new "jammer" bathing suit and that
will be my nickname after tonight

What it says in 2007: I'm from Europe and I'm taking advantage of the low dollar and showing my package to all you Americans





What it says in 1977: He looks like Scott Baio. Well close enough so I'll sleep with him
What it says in 2007: Somebody's about to quote the entire film "Broke Back Mountain"





What it said in 1977: Success, style, and a young go get 'em attitude
What it says in 2007: Porn, NASCAR, and a Napolean Dynamite attitude



Ok these two are getting laid, even in this outfit, in any decade. These guys are rockin the lime




Pictures emailed to me but evidently came from this source. I WROTE THE NEW DESCRIPTION AND HAD NEVER SEEN THIS SITE. I don't mean to steal from Johnny he did a great job as well. He deserves credit for the fantastic photos.

I'd rather people dress like this again instead of walking around with giant pants and shirts acting like monkeys all the time..

Oh gods, I own one of those lime suits! I bought it in a thrift store because I thought it was awesome. I wear it whenever I get a chance.

Jared said...

Thanks for the laughs WSF, very clever. Thankfully I was not around yet for any of these fashions.

Rocking the lime - I hope that catches on. (the phrase, not the clothes)

Ryan S said...

Good concept just requires someone funnier to write the captions.

if someone called me a noob for wearing something like that, i'd kick their ass. lame nerd

YtseWolf said...

I can't decide which lime suit I would rather have. The suit on the right says, "Timeless elegance in a color that time forgot," whereas the one on the left says, "I am carrying a concealed firearm and/or half a key of cocaine."

You don't need a time machine to witness such atrocities first-hand, just visit Portland. Sad hipsters from horizon to horizon dress just like this. Sure, they think they're doing it with a keen sense of irony, but it's still pathetic.

LOL at the last pic comment about the lime guys, very true. they have that look that no fashion faux pas could hinder when it comes to getting laid.

Johnny Virgil said...

Thanks for the shout out. I appreciate it.

don't think I would've been caught in one of those night shirts in 1977 and definitely not now, but I would rather see people wearing these clothes than the big pants and shirts they wear now. They'd be better off in a nudist colony.

Yeah fashion has really changed. The jokes were pretty lame.

Ravi Vora said...

Hilarious, I would totally rock that last outfit.

Skip said...

LMAO! I want one of those karate outfits!!

Steve said...

Why are people saying the comments weren't funny? They are hilarious. Keep up the good work are ignore idiots with no sense of humor.

Now we know where Wes Anderson shops from...

jkfan87 said...

Hate to be the one to break reality to, but most of these were NOT considered cool or fashionable in 1977. Hence, they would not have gotten the guy laid back then either.

That Toughskins kid looks like me in 1972. I totally rocked, until I outgrew the pants and they became highwaters.

Glork said...

I graduated from High School in '76, so I'm well aware of the fashions of the time. Believe it or not, we actually felt those styles looked cool back then. And actually...compared to the somewhat bland styles of today and the last few years...they still look good. Of course, it would take quite a bit to get me back into a pair of flares!

Louis Vuitton Replica said...

This is very funny LOL. I bet 30 years from now people will be laughing at the clothes we are wearing now. ;)
