But I was actually making a totally different argument. I was arguing that one should dress well, and by well, I mean in ways that flatter and accentuate and celebrate one's beauty, inner and outer, for oneself, in order to assert one's inherent human dignity. I was not arguing that you should dress to impress others, to impress George Will, for example, or to assert your maturity or responsibility, which are subjectively measured by the very structures that wish to strip you of your dignity so as to make you a more functional cog in the machine. Maturity and Responsibility are the stuff of well-oiled cogs, my friend. Jeans, denims tends to catch and tear on the machinery. Slows it down and lowers productivity. And THEY don't want that. So, listen to me. Carefully. WEAR JEANS! Not the baggy stone-washed kind or the kind that pushes your belly fat to the wrong places. Wear sexy well-made jeans. And wear them with nice shoes.
And never, Ever, compare me to George Will again.

I'm saying Will ripped off your argument and with such a derivative, it is shallow compared to your original brilliance. He turned it into a grumpy old man version, not a call for sophistication and counterculture.
And no, Will is not brilliant. In fact, I think he's a turd and he should have stuck to writing about baseball and even that writing was lame.
