I was unaware that there was a couture associated with Hobos. What brought this question on?

[borntoolate]

Yeah I think he invented it.
Mostly it was brought on by my uncle's complete inability to listen to good fashion advice.

[true_noir]

Oh, I see. this is the subtle jab at his expense, with a bit of good-natured humore to boot? Hoping to change his habits?

[borntoolate]

Okay but look.
That coat with that scarf and those pants?
That is a cry for help.
Do you know how many of those grandma scarves he owns?
Too many.

[true_noir]

I would not argue that he is not pleading for a makeover. It is like watching an old british show or something similar. Will he listen, though?

[borntoolate]

I'm hoping this will be just the wake up call he needs.

[true_noir]

Let me know how this turns out. I will admit that I am slightly curious to see the final outcome in the end, after all. It should be funny at the very least.

[borntoolate]

I'll keep you posted.
I wouldn't expect much though.
I've been working on this project for a while now.
He's super stubborn.

[true_noir]

I could only assume. You've gone this far, so he must be quite the stubborn sort to some extent at the very least. Nobody who is not requires this much effort.

[borntoolate]

He is like the king of stubborn.

[true_noir]

Then you will simply have to out-stubborn him, will you not? It is the only way to ensure that he finally learns, after all, to outlast his stubbornness.
