INCOMING THREAD ALERT

Here's the problem with Rand Paul's turtleneck. Namely, It's not a turtleneck.

Here is noted turtleneck wearer Michel Foucalt, who definitely perfected the Eurotrash philosopher in a turtleneck look, wearing an actual turtleneck.

Note the collar position. It's rolled almost to his chin.

Also note just how much *texture* is in the collar of his turtleneck. Night and day compared to Rand Paul's, which is very much the Wonder Bread of turtlenecks.

But the bigger problem is that Rand is wearing a "mockneck" turtleneck.

See, the idea with a turtleneck is that you ROLL THE COLLAR DOWN to provide additional insulation around your neck.

It helps to frame your face.

"Mock" turtlenecks are an inherently ridiculous and aesthetically unpleasing.

Compare John Lennon's turtleneck to Rand's.

They both have the same basic color /texture (which I don't actually like), but John's looks so much better.

Why? Because John's is an ACTUAL TURTLENECK
