...at Northpark Mall. I also sat in the current version of the Tesla Model S (not pictured) at the Tesla store. The seats are much improved over what I remember, and the leather is remarkably soft.

Grille and front bumper look quite odd on the Rapide. Looks like an aftermarket kit as it approaches the fender...

I never thought of it that way, but I see what you mean because of the straight slats.

Love the AMs but I’d rather not have my fridge be part of a botnet used for DDOS attacks.

That brogue detailing in the DB11 is, without doubt, the most horrible interior detail I’ve ever seen on a car. But the outside is so good it mostly makes up for it.

More likely it would just be another way for Samsung to market to you and sell your info. Imagine buying cocktail olives and then having your inbox spammed with ads for pickled food.

Where do you find these Oppo suits. I bet I could turn one into a business expense...

I think these were in Macy’s. And if you go through with that, I want pics of you wearing it to a business meeting.

Disclaimer time: I am the king of colorful clothes. Everything I wear is brightly colored or has some sort of color (even my Clarks suede boots are a royal blue instead of brown). Colors like black, grey, and white do not have a prominent presence in my shirts, pants and shorts, and non-dress shoes. If I had a choice, my car would not be a dark green like it is now. Some favorite pieces of mine include a teal, purple, and orange Patagonia Snap-T, neon pink Vans, blue floral Nike Pegasus 33 running shoes, a yellow Polo hat, and blue Crocs with yellow straps.
I think those suits are kind of goofy. When my prom came around, I settled on a grey suit with blue and yellow accessories to make my hair and eyes pop (from Jos A. Bank). That’s the way to be colorful when you’re dressing up. I’d love an OppoSuit design for a Patagonia jacket or Baggies, a t-shirt, or a pair of Nikes, but not for a formal occasion.

I don’t think anyone with sanity or taste thinks an Oppo suit is appropriate for a formal occasion. At least I hope not. I love that they exist though, and I would applaud anyone who wears one to work.
One thing I truly miss about the 80s is colorful clothing choices for men. You have to work very hard to find stuff that’s not earth tones ever since the 90s grunge era and its aftermath. I still have some of those crazy sweaters like you used to see Bill Cosby wear. People love when I wear them, but you can’t find them now.

They’re at Macy’s. I work at a Macy’s...and as a man who wears a suit everyday to work... they should be burned and buried with those old ET games in the desert.

There was a guy that came in to lunch at my work wearing the American flag suit.
It made me want an Oppo suit even more, because it actually looked pretty nice...

If I get one I’ll get the most obnoxious one available and have it tailored to really throw people off. I’m assuming these are fused suits?

I’d almost be tempted to get the Oppo suit for “ugly holiday sweater day” at school.

Considering they’re like 100 dollars I don’t seem them being something you’d get from Savile Row. Pretty sure they’re polyester, too.

I don’t know about that fridge in particular but other IoT devices like it are infamous for being vulnerable to being taken control of and used in attacks so I’ll pass until they show that they take security seriously.

Yeah, a nice radius would have been a little more subtle. But I think I’ll trust a luxury/exotic automaker over myself on that one.

Love the DB11, and that color is gorgeous.
You can have that fridge, no interest for me. Not really a fan of IoT stuff. Too Orwellian.

The tech is coming, and I reflexively wonder how companies like Samsung will figure out how to abuse it.

I’m sure they have a lot of resources dedicated to finding the most profitable way to abuse the data they’ll collect.

I don’t like IoT either.
Soon, Samsung will see that I have Hormel pepperoni in the fridge, which is a competitor to columbus in the sausage market and I will get coupons and adverts from them.
Or if they find out I pronounce Jiff peanut butter as GIF, because we pronounce GIF as jiff and I don’t want the confusion, the fridge will disown me.

This new grille is easy distinguisher for the Rapide S - they no longer offer a regular Rapide, which had the old, thinner grille.

Some of my favorite places and brands are Belk, Nautica, Polo, and Patagonia if you want to find some colorful stuff. Belk has a ton of colorful clothes.
The other thing about Oppo suits is that I’m tall and I probably wouldn’t fit in one. Some of them are pretty outrageous, though! They remind me of some socks I got from Belk on Thanksgiving called Happy Socks.

I have occasionally had some Nautica and Polo stuff. Problem is, I mostly see solid colors. I miss the wild patterns. I do occasionally see shirts I really like, but they’re always in expensive stores and cost upwards of $75. Haven’t tried the other two.
Those suits look the recent trend in skinny euro suits. I doubt they would fit me either.
