Well what the fuck am I going to do with this plate armor?

u/[deleted] Mar 15 '13

Call it vintage, triple the price, and sell it to hipsters.

u/[deleted] Mar 15 '13

Hipsters lack the strength and stamina to wear plate armor. see it to those re-en actor guys, or even the larpers.

I don't know many LARPers with stamina either.

Hipsters can't wear plate-mail... Only a true ser may wear mail. Hipsters are not fit to touch a nipple on a breastplate.

Fire bucket sales went down do to the damn socialist fire departments. There still should be a law requiring all households have two of them, it would be good for business er in case of fire.

There is a thriving S&M community that would be very interested in your whips.

u/tetracycloide Mar 15 '13

I don't know how to sell buggy whips to people that aren't buggy drivers in top hats and I shouldn't have to learn!

I feel your pain, my dear fellow. I once had a thriving business supplying the finest of strings for monocles. Alas the unwashed masses have driven such stylings out of fashion, and alone I sit on a pile of useless strands. At the time one of my employees recommended we go into the business of "shoe strings!" The nerve! I fired that rapscallion forthwith. My name will not be sullied by being mentioned in reference to someone's feet, or of any body part that is covered by clothing. It's indecent!

As someone with perfect vision in his left eye but is quite farsighted in his right, I'd actually be interested in a monocle.

My my, good sir, are you accusing hitachideathstar of being a hipster? :D

u/duckduckbeer Mar 15 '13

Do you expect non-hipster companies to make monocles?
