Opinions

Camouflage attire is acceptable only if it complements the Christmas tree's color scheme.
Cargo shorts, typically frowned upon, are permissible on Christmas due to its special status as a holiday.
Wearing crocs with socks is tolerated but should be limited to the pre-breakfast period and never in public.
The author humorously acknowledges their lack of fashion knowledge, contrasting it with the expertise of a former Z-list model.
The article pokes fun at the author's own experiences, such as being banned from parts of southern California due to persistent Facetime calls.
The author suggests that even though cargo shorts are generally out of fashion, they can be an acceptable choice for a festive occasion like Christmas.

My fashion resume’

Knowing nothing about the difference between Armani and Old Navy, I consulted the queen of Medium style and former Z-list model to get her suggestions for men’s attire.

Since Laurel B. Miller finds my humor as obnoxious as getting hit on by Christopher Robin in the elementary school carpool, she didn’t return my thirty-one Facetime video requests. ¹ Unrelated, I’m no longer welcome in large regions of southern California.

Since real expertise is not available, I will use all my high-society fashion knowledge to help the dozens of dads who sweat sleeplessly on Christmas Eve with crises of clothing confusion. ²

Rule 1

Pants are 100% required.

Even if you sport your beloved Fruit-of-the-Loins whitie-tighties the other 364 mornings of the year, PUT ON PANTS. Why? Because good parents take pictures of their family opening presents.

NO ONE wants to see your boyhood bulge in front of the Christmas tree. Jesus wasn’t born surrounded by sheep poop, so your better half has to delete every picture of her adorable children opening presents.

Rule 2

If you wear camo, the pattern must blend in with the Christmas Tree.

I know you didn’t drive a 4-wheeler for two and a half hours to cut down an endangered Long Leaf Pine just to cover it in Mossy Oak BreakUp camouflage.

Rule 3

Cargo shorts are allowed on Christmas.

Surprised? Didn’t you take all your cargo shorts to Goodwill after your wife told you no self-respecting human being should wear them until 5000 naked molerats got jobs as air-traffic controllers?

If you remember, she let you have one pair for special occasions.

And what occasion is more special than a holiday whose eve is its own holiday?
