That scarf reminds me more of the ones I wore in middle school and high school than anything else. Hello 80s!

I hear ya. Apparently all winter long I was a supporter of "murdeous Islamic extremist" because I wore one of my LV scarves (which is similiar in design) like that.
Gee whiz.

Michelle Malkin's face reminds me of a rolled up Cuban cigar but I don't see her getting a facelift.

From the story itself:
Urban Outfitters, a trend-setting U.S.-based clothing chain with more than 119 stores in North America and Europe, sold "anti-war woven scarves" as part of its spring 2007 line. But after criticism from Jewish and Arab groups online, alternatively for implying support for terrorism or trivializing a freedom struggle, the item was pulled from shelves in January 2007.
Now, the trend has spread to urban style. BET and MTV R&B favorites like Omarion and Chris Brown have worn kuffiyehs in recent months, its political meaning less and less apparent.
Politically minded rappers have worn kuffiyehs in the past, but their political leanings indicated an understanding of the symbolism. Mos Def, for example, has been seen in a kuffiyeh, but he has been vocal about Palestinian issues in his music.
"Politically conscious rappers like Common and Mos Def are hip to the Palestinian cause," said Swedenburg, the Arkansas professor. "It doesn't lose its political significance altogether. If Lupe Fiasco is promoting it, I don't think he is just being fashionable."
It's clear the kuffiyeh is increasingly commercial in hip-hop fashion, even if some rappers understand its Palestinian symbolism. Urban Outfitters quietly put an $18 black and white, tasseled item in its Spring 2008 line.
This time, it's called a "Houndstooth Desert Scarf."

Alright man, I know we come from 2 entirely different places, but this is quite possible the one thing we agree on when it comes to women.

I agree, I would sacrifice a drop dead gorgeous girlfriend for one that actually knows her way around a kitchen. I wouldn't expect a girl to like a guy who doesn't know how to fix shit although unfortunately they do. Every time I see a nice girl with some guido douche who waxes his eyebrows and goes to tanning beds I want to vomit. The demasculinization of our culture sickens me to no end.

I once tried to buy my brother a flask with a picture of Jesus on it... but they were sold out.
Otherwise, you're right.
