    Retro-extremists? What are we called?

    Hang on to you hats This is me to some respect, less the nondescript. I HATE wearing T-shirts and such with phrases on it. I also wish to dress my age. I would not want to be considered a 41 or 42 yo guy who dresses like a kid in the suburbs that has watched too much MTV. So dressing, if not...

    Retro-extremists? What are we called?

    Retro-sexual Wow, I thought I just pulled retro-sexual off the top of my head. I had no idea it was an actual term in the lexicon. I guess I'm not a clever as I thought. :(

    Retro-extremists? What are we called?

    Good point. But, at least information will be out there. I've never edited anything on Wikipedia, so I'm not sure how all that works. Do a lot of articles get misinformation put into them after the original posting?

    Retro-extremists? What are we called?

    Maybe Senator should just put up the article on Wikipedia and say "the members of the group are self described as....." and then all the words that people want to call themselves. Lets face it, the "movement" or "lifestyle" or "hey I got this old hat cheep on e-bay" group is in quite a state of...

    Retro-extremists? What are we called?

    I totally agree that we need some sort of shorthand. Sorry if I'm pissy tonight. Also, seriously, did the Rockabillies have to go through all this too? You know, the "Beat Poets" didn't call themselves Beat Poets. I saw Allan Ginsberg speak in Austin Tx years ago (I say I "saw" him...

    Retro-extremists? What are we called?

    I don't really think there should be a litmus test. People should be able to self identify. I don't think it should be like the early 80's: "oh, he's just posing, he's not really *ska*." It's like, I'm Jewish. I try to observe all the mitzvhot (commandments) I can. There are people in my...

    Retro-extremists? What are we called?

    I could not agree more. I really enjoy the fashion, and "feel" if you will of the era from about 1930 to about 1948. I don't really know how to put into words what "feel" actually means to me in this respect. I would love to combine the best of the old with the best of the new. I "feel" like...

    New Campdraft hat for sale.

    Campdraft this is sort of off topic, :offtopic: , but... I thought the Campdraft came with a bash in it. Is this not so? You did a totally awesome job shaping the hat, but my head is a little to big 58 cm.

    My problems with suits

    Good plan This looks like the easiest diet in the world. More of a lifestyle change really-- which is how I'm looking at my current weight loss plan: lifestyle change. No one will yell at me now for not finishing a meal in one min. lol However, I don't understand why isn't not good to drink...

    Retro-extremists? What are we called?

    True. If we ran into someone to the SCA and they asked you why you were dressed funny, and you said "I'm an Anachronist." That would probably start a fight. :D But, seriously, your point is right no the mark. Most people associate the term Anachronist with the SCA. At least where I live.

    Retro-extremists? What are we called?

    Correct You are correct. I'm not sure why it reminds me of the Fair. That is just kind of what comes to mind. I knew some people who were really into the SCA and Paganism in college who also worked at the local Renaissance Fair. Maybe the introduced me to the term?
