1. "When you put one on...something happens..."
yeah you end up looking like a scuzzy old perv :rofl: Seriously, I don't know what club you have to be a member of to wear one of those jackets, but I want no part of it :P

2. I'm sure he would fit right in at any occasion requiring a tux...
with that black MO jacket and bow tie. The thin, glossy fabric adds a certain flair. :P

4. they were HUGE in my little town
I could never afford the right brands but I got my Mom to buy me a Members Only jacket. My first step to being some trendy sucker :puke: that's all you could be at my school.

5. My uncle bought me one when I was 3 years old.
I don't think I wore it that much- not that I remember but I was "in".

7. Oh. My. God.
That is so cheesy and campy and downright unappealing! However, I did have my Members Only jacket. In fact, in chemistry class in high school I set myself on fire with on. I reached over a bunson burner and that thing went up like a roman candle. :rofl: I wasn't hurt.

11. Wow, the voluminous curly hair in the back and the sides...

13. The 80s were sort of a resurgence of the 50s "it doesn't exist if we say so" phenomenon
wasn't it?

I used to watch hair band video...with the volume off. Very, very funny.

14. Yeah and the aughts are a resurgence of the '80s.
Society is arrogant, shallow and greedy.
