Fashion Fail - Years Ahead of the Pantless Trend

Submitted by: Jen via Submission Page

This is just adorable. I can almost hear the old-timey little-kid insults getting thrown around as this jaunty fellow gets the crap kicked out of him in the schoolyard. “Take THAT you slice of lukewarm meatloaf!” “I’m gonna hit you so hard that your face turns into tomato aspic!”

Okay, I don’t know any old-timey little-kid insults. They don’t focus on the kids enough in Mad Men.

  2. angie says:

    wooow i do hope he had better dress sence when he grew up, poor lad

  3. Matante says:

    This was possibly a school uniform, there has always been something utterly bizarre with them.

  4. kjalka says:

    People that love children are ok.

    People that hate people that love children,… well.. didn’t get censorshipped

  5. imillard says:

    It’s an old photo, but it’s gotta be British.
    They are the only people that humiliate their young with short pants and bow ties.

  6. clickin says:

    Love the princess seams on that jacket!
    If it is British, you know he’s got knee sox and buckle shoes, too!

  7. Mariah says:

    It was good until I saw the shorts. Who ever designed this outfit should be dragged out in his underwear and beaten.

  8. Snookie_Townshend says:

    Lieutenant Jim Dangle’s school picture!
    (Okay, so I like “Reno 911″….)

  9. Sadly says:

    Honestly, I have to wonder if that suit wasn’t mangled. It looks like those pants were cut and hemmed to be that short….And who would make a suit with shorts? It’s going to be hot either way!

  10. Nads says:

    Da….David Lettermen?

  11. Kendra says:

    The funny thing is i saw a teenager wearing a suit like that the other day(no shorts thank god) but he was surrounded by teen girls.When i asked one of them what was up they said and i quote”he is so hip”

  12. Bullitt says:

    The bottom of the picture was cut off when the page loaded, so I didn’t get why he was on Poorly Dressed until I scrolled down a bit and saw more little boy thigh than I’m comfortable with.

  13. fish eye no miko says:

    Wow, and here I thought Disturbing Shorts were exclusively Japanese…

  14. me says:

    Who wears short shorts?

  15. serger says:

    THE PANTS.
    DO THEY EVEN EXIST.

  16. you fuckers says:

    dont even know a WIN when you see one

  17. Lytrigian says:

    Yeah, you think this is funny now, but… Just wait another 40 years, and they’ll be laughing their asses off at these knickers everyone now calls “shorts”.

  18. JanD says:

    Years of therapy in the making

  19. fauxamours says:

    … I’m also a victim of reno 911, I immediately thought of Jim Dangle too.

  20. Cecile says:

    This kid is now either an adult making a fortune in the tech field…. or he’s sitting around posting “first” on every comment page he can click on.

  21. kwek says:

    I swear… my parents have that exact same chair he’s leaning on. Thank God my parents didn’t have this choice in clothes for me and my brothers!

  22. Yamabushi says:

    I wore a school uniform and sadly I had an outfit like this as a wee lad and there is pictorial proof. Mine hade houndstooth panels in the front of the jacket.

    The only saving grace is I seem to be crying like hell, which leads me to believe I put up one hell of a fight trying to avoid wearing the heinous outfit.

    Ultimately their revenge came later….12 years of school uniforms.

    Off to see my therapist …

  23. M says:

    LOL YES! Fellow Reno fans, this is TOTALLY Dangle in his early years!!

  24. moonmaedyn says:

    This is just…wrong. So very wrong. On so many levels…

  25. catgirl says:

    If the weather is hot, his top half will be too hot. If it’s cold, his legs will freeze. This boy is screwed no matter what.

  26. R says:

    Shotacat bait.

  27. RILEY says:

    you could say,
    I’ll tell you which way the cow chews the cud!

    By the way, YIMPS FTW!! http://www.yimps.com

  28. Rex says:

    Is that George Will?

  29. Molly says:

    This was on the sexypeople blog awhile back. . .the commenters there identified the pic as being from either the Netherlands or Germany. There was some significance to the spindle chair thing, too. I’m great with details.

  30. Ben says:

    Back when Lieutanent Dangle was Hall Monitor Dangle.

  31. megafart says:

  34. LoliTurk says:

    Somewhere, a creepy old guy is fapping to this.
    …I know it…

  35. DriveBuy says:

  36. Weird dude says:
