I don't believe in time travel, but I can't completely explain this photo.

Yes, I did pick this forum to debunk the photos because it is full of fellow potheads.

Because pothead=expert on historical photos? What's the logic here? There's a correct tool for every job. Want to grow weed? Go to RIU. Want to get a picture verified for historical accuracy? Get the original and pay someone who actually knows what's up. I would never call a bet verified if it wasn't by an expert on the subject at hand. To beat a dead horse again; if your Chevy was broken, would you post a thread on RUI to find out how to fix the problem? Or would you go to a Chevy forum? Think about it and get back to me. It seems you didn't really do this to get answers, those were already given. In response to your "vintage" comment. I see plenty of hipsters shopping in Goodwill, thus reinforcing that "vintage" is just old shit you buy because you like it. I've seen many stores that sell "vintage" things, and there's not really a common thread; unless you count everything there being old.

The great philosophical question remains: How do you travel back in time if traveling back in time is your goal? Once you travel back, wouldn't it remove your need to travel back in the future? Why would you go back if your reason for going back was resolved?

Yes, I mean prospective. I thought that meant meeting ones expectations or something like that. If I am wrong, I am wrong. I debunked all the other photos myself :-P And yes, I love to debate with other potheads, they have the most unique and creative ways of thinking.

I just noticed your post and felt the need to tell you what the deal is. For one the correct tool for the job is whatever forum I pick based on the rules, and last time I checked this was the talk about whatever you want to while high section so calm your horses and get back to me on that. And I did get my answers since you are so concerned, or perhaps you didn't read the whole thread.

@SteveFrench Thanks, was there a purpose for repeating that or did it make you feel good about yourself

And also

pro·spec·tive


  1. (of a person) Expected or expecting to be something particular in the future.
  2. Likely to happen at a future date; concerned with or applying to the future.

With that definition there is still room to apply it if you want to get technical.

lol Obvious photo shop. Dressed like that there would be eyes on him at all times, not one person looking at him. Good type of pic(everyone looking at some event going on obviously) to put in a odd looking character.

That's what I thought too, but it's actually just a real guy in clothes of that time period.

Despite the literal and broad definition giving by a publicly written encyclopedia, not all clothing by today's standards are considered vintange. The clothing must adhere to certain standards. But anyway, you can believe what you want. That is just my business prospective.

Following the context of the sentence you are sharing your point of view or perspective. But if you want to try and save face and claim you meant prospective then by all means, do so. No skin off my back.

Marktell,
You have to forgive Carne.
He's a good guy with an alternative lifestyle but,
I think he still wants to fight with you about those fashion statements.

Not at all. I admit wrong doing, but like I said, if he wants to get technical a girl's got nothing but time.

Let me break it down for you. Based on the definition, I could have meant that I expected people like you, the public, and Carne to understand what real vintage is today. And it is not some sweater knitted by some great grandma 100 years ago. In layman's terms for common street people who roam through any old thrift shop vintage is any old rag I am sure. I do not work for Goodwill nor do I consider them a vintage store.

Yeah, what's wrong with that. Did you understand what I was saying. If so then my words were effective and served their purpose, if not I can explain it to you. My apologies I don't talk all prim and proper on the internet at 4am in the morning on pot.
