why is having knit clothing obligatory for writers?

Good writers don't live in warm places, statistically speaking.
In fact, if a pop/news science reporter got a hold of statistics relating to writing success and temperature, they'd probably conclude that cold temperatures caused quality/popular writing.

That is a vast overestimation of how many people regularly wear childish graphic tees.
And even then, yes the majority of people can't dress themselves. And I didn't say graphic tees were fedoracore, I said they are childish, you said I was fedora and I said it's more fedora to wear graphic tees than not wear them.

Make up your mind.
The people who pride themselves on not wearing a t-shirt with a print on it often look like the worst dressed people around.
Just take a peak at /fa/, ill fitting black sweaters and clunky dad shoes is what there teens/twenty year olds wear and it looks very out of place on them.

Nah man thats reddit, reddit only wears boots and clothes for older people.
Also if your mom let you wear graphic tees when you were older than 12 she was a faliure and you were a loser troughout your school years.

You're just as big of a loser, it doesn't matter if you're wearing a dad sweater in front of your computer or a graphic t-shirt, get off your high horse.

Maybe you could be the first in a new era of Canadian literature :^)
Plain white t-shirt, black hoodie, jeans and chelsea boots. I wear the most plain clothes possible to be practically invisible and just people-watch to help my writing
I wear black because I once saw a picture of Sartre dressed in black and thought looking like him would get me laid.
>>7724865
I wear black turtlenecks but I barely read
I have the same formula for a majority of my outfits:
Dark/ black tight turtleneck
Patterned knee length skirt - usually featuring a painting on it. Pic related
Beret and High Heels, matching colour.
Blazer optional, depending on if the day is in lectures or my lab.
My mother describes my style as 'twat-nik'.
It's an accurate description.

I'm in an open relationship with a hot feminist existentialist writer. You tell me.
The Paris Review is full of adverts for "literary" style clothes. It's embarrassing. Look at this shit, "Flaneur forever".

>>7720303
wearing all black is more trouble than it's worth. you'd think it'd make things easier since you can throw on any items of clothing and have them match. but there are different kinds of black and wearing two different blacks looks stupid. you also have to lint roll the fuck out of your clothes everyday.

So THAT'S what's holding me back from becoming a great writer. I need some knit shit.

Kickstarter TV started out great but I'm on episode 10-11 and it's Sam basically ranting and raving in a closed bike shop somewhere in Georgia. Bit of a slog hopefully it picks up again. That one where the guy's wife was obviously cheating on him had me crying.

It's just a nice suit. They're only advertising in the Paris Review because it has an affluent readership.

You're implying like thats a bad thing. I mean, edge aside, the pres of Israel just asked america to increase is financial aid from 30B a decade to 50, and they're contemplating it. By the way, thats not including military equipment.
Israel has free edcuation and health care, paid for by america.
Isreal made a deal with youtube to remove any anti israel or pro palestine videos, they pay people to defend israel online(aka compensated patriotism), and to top it off, the fucking president at the zionist convention told everyone that a palestinian mufti told hilter to gas the jews.
