I wear large framed glasses. Is that good or bad? I mean, small framed is more practical, but so bland.

I can't get contacts in. My eyes seem to refuse. So it's large framed specs for me. I basically buy whatever the salesman recommends when it comes to glasses.

I generally find that I have better things to worry about than clothes and fashion trends. Thus I tend to go with the first thing I find that is comfortable and functional for whatever I am going to be doing.
In this case my definition of functional also includes a minimum standard that my appearance is not so unfashionable as to actively attract unwanted attention and detract from my social interactions, but beyond that, so long as my clothes do not injure the eyes of pedestrians, I wear what is comfortable.

I don't know. I usually wear skate shoes (I don't know how to skateboard) and All-Stars. I'm always wearing jeans. My T-shirts are unnoteworthy. The only accessory I use is a chaplet. When it's cold, I put on a flannel shirt or a sweater or whatever keeps me warm. I don't really have a 'fashion sense'.

Your nation is like a son. What it does right is your merit, as well as what it does wrong is your fault. When you praise it, be lucid and avoid exaggeration. Praising it too much can make it indolent. On the other hand, when you criticize it, be harsh, but do not ridicule it. Do your best to improve it, not through derision or disdain, but through good examples and dedication.

I have work clothes, painting/home clothes, and badass fancy partyclothes.

When I'm at home I'm rarely wearing clean clothes and paying attention to what I'm wearing; at social situations or work, I try to be tidy.

If I ever have a need for Captain Plaid, I'll go ahead and shine the plaid-signal from my window. You might fight crime, but the unfortunate consequence is that all my nice clothes would transform into hideous plaid patterns after you arrive.

I really don't know about plaid. It looks good on a kilt, but on anything else it just looks odd.

Some plaid looks nice. Too much plaid is what I'm not a fan of.

Elegant, of course.

Honestly, I only use cat ears outside during Halloween.

I liked it back before my style of dress was coopted by the socially awkward memetic group that it has been. Now I get hate all over the internet, though oddly, none in real life.

I used to be an object of quirky derision at worst, now I'm being lumped in with rape apologists and guys who say "m'lady".

Well, fedoras should die an ignoble death in flames. Dressing nicely isn't bad, though.
