Less fingerless gloves please
This town loves a pair of fingerless gloves. I’d say 30% of all males own a pair. I’ve seen people walking down the street, on the bus, bagger/cashiers at New Seasons, baristas at the coffee shop, people browsing at the record store…what are they for exactly? Keeping your palm warm while enabling you to get the right key for your door? Or keeping your palm warm while typing? When my hands get cold, it’s actually my fingers that are cold, not my palms. That’s why I wear mittens.
I googled “fingerless gloves” and the first link is to a page showing you how to make your own pair! DIY dude! That’s why people here are so into them. ‘Cause they can make them! Here’s a quote from the website:
Let’s be frank—knitted fingerless gloves aren’t really about keeping your palms warm and your fingers free… They’re about looking rad.
Nope. They’re about looking bad.
Wait…got it! People wear them so they can smoke cigarettes…while keeping their palms warm. Yup.
Only in Portland.
