- wanky fake 'nerd' glasses. You're not fooling anyone into thinking you're smart.
- Hitler youth hairstyle
- androgyny
- oversize 'David Bain' jumpers. Come on, really? This is sooo two years ago.
- toting a leather satchel and riding a fixie bike to uni
- claiming to be a graphic designer when you really work in a lame call centre
- wearing a fedora and blazer to class
- subscribing to any aspect of culture that's 'vintage' e.g. in fashion, photography, music...
- basically being so ridonculously self conscious (read: insecure?) that you can't ever catch yourself not looking cool.
Sufferers from dickhead-itis should intake a heavy dose of Jersey Shore immediately, listen to ZM full blast, and buy a Jay Jays witty pun T shirt to contradict 'cool' vibes. This should balance out douche-ness and alleviate the problem. If symptoms persist, change degree from design to accounting.
Thanks, Astrid - very useful for us older observers who sometimes don't know what it is we're observing.
