These people went on to develop a pornographic dragon quest parody game called knobster quest. It's a game about a lobster made of dick skin who's quest is to defeat the giant clam that holds the secret of the ocean(the secret is that the ocean is a big pool of cum in my dog walkers back yard). Great game but the fleshlight controller you need for it is pretty expensive and also useless if you have severe erectile dysfunction. I tried returning it but I guess you can't return used fleshlights to Giant Tiger because they don't sell them there. Oh well, there's 377 bucks down the drain. Maybe I'll get some boner pills so I can play their knobstronaut game when it comes out, I've heard you play as a normal human astronaut but your spacesuit is made entirely of foreskin.

You know, honestly I'm not mad. This is still better that every other post being a guerilla marketing ploy. Makes me long for the internet of 2006.

[–] sparkles@piefed.zip 21 points 1 week ago (2 children)

You gotta wear platform boots with them.

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 week ago

Exactly. Bunch of posers have no clue how it's done. smh.

[–] notwhoyouthink@lemmy.zip 10 points 1 week ago

Naw man, the torn up bottom hem is a vibe.

That explains my sudden urge to share my résumé online with the entire world and dress badly.

[–] dumbass@piefed.social 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Man, Aqua looked different to what I remember.

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 week ago

Not very different...

[–] sad_detective_man@sopuli.xyz 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

This is the culture they took from you ✊😔

[–] infinitesunrise@slrpnk.net 9 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

No no, I voluntarily moved on to skinny jeans around 2005 (Don't worry, I eventually voluntarily moved on from those too).

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

Everyone eventually just ends up at jorts.

[–] Lioffproxy@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I no shit had a pair that were bigger in each pant leg than the waist size. Ridiculous day and age.

[–] infinitesunrise@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They were so expensive at their peak and I'm convinced it was due almost as much to raw amount of material as it was their popularity.

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

My high school had a 50/50 mix of wealthy/normal kids, I vaguely recall one wealthy popular boy wearing these senior year.

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

How heavy were they? Did it feel like trying to walk through a swimming pool?

[–] Lioffproxy@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

It felt like wearing a closet

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Did you feel embarrassed wearing those? Or were you feeling super stylish and everyone thought you were super hot?

[–] Lioffproxy@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

The amount of shame is tied to the time between wearing them.

[–] Broadfern@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

This looks like magazine crossover art for 4 different early 2000s video games

[–] Lawnman23@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Fuck I miss my JNCO’s…

[–] Sergio@piefed.social 11 points 1 week ago (2 children)

They're still out there. I double dog dare ya to wear em to your next job interview.

[–] Soulphite@reddthat.com 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I triple dog dare them to wear them and also proceed to announce "Sup! I'm here to fuck shit up!"

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 week ago

If you work in demolitions, that might be viewed as a go getter attitude.

[–] SillyDude@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

They aren't just still out there, they're now being made again. Not by the same company(I assume), but the same width is popular now with gen A I think. Since skinny jeans where officially labeled as "out" in 2016 and I've been waiting for wider jeans to get to jnco level and they did. It's glorious and even funnier the second time around.

[–] Sergio@piefed.social 1 points 1 week ago

iirc the new company was re-established by one of the original owners. I think Tripp NYC is still around and having a comeback too. (neither one was ever my thing tho...)

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

The power behind all that hair... Unimaginable.

[–] Grass@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago (2 children)

when even was this? I occasionally hear about jnco jeans but I have no recollection of ever actually seeing people dress like this

[–] modus@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Probably 1997 or 98.

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

1992 I was a teenager when it happened and I saw it in my high school. They tried to be in style but were never really in style. A few kids with wealthy parents bought them and wore them maybe once or twice, but they were actually embarrassed to wear these.

[–] rob_t_firefly@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Two of these people are a couple now, but it's not the two you think.

[–] deacon@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I generally don’t participate in fashion trends so I never have cause to look back on my past self and cringe.

With one obnoxiously baggy exception.

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

This is how some boys gradually started wearing dresses.

[–] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Now I can't stop thinking about that shitty gang in The Book of Boba Fett

[–] finallymadeanaccount@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

"Hey! That guy's wearing a big dress on each leg!"

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Pretty sure you can make a full size skirt out of each leg and still have a pair of jorts leftover.

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Ton of heavy fabric and they're made well with high quality stitching & details & the company hopefully pays their employees dignified living wages.

[–] daggermoon@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Might be worth it then. I have been considering it. They look really cool.

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

They're really cool until they snag something.

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They were never cool. Don't waste your money buying these, and don't embarrass yourself trying to wear these 🤣

[–] daggermoon@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The things I wear, it wouldn't be these that are embarrassing. Besides, it would be rad at metal shows. It wouldn't even stand out.

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Okay enjoy then. I suppose they could be useful for smuggling in a lot of extra contraband to events and for shoplifting haha
