Default Brownwood “What Up”

We were at Brownwood last night and ran across some 4 somewhat sketchy individuals traveling in a group. They were sporting the whitetail look that I feel is inappropriate. The pants were drooping down and underwear was showing. Is there a dress code that can be enforced? The couple that was with us said they came from the new apartment complex. Who do we call to address this?

Start with your local representatives to the US Congress. A Constitutional Amendment limiting that kind of freedom would have to start there.

I feel old people dancing suggestively is inappropriate, who do I call to address this?

I feel ignorant comments on a forum are inappropriate, who do I call to address this?

I feel the smell of burning animal flesh coming from the restaurants around the square is inappropriate, who do I call to address this?

You are asking what you can do to make other people dress in a way you approve, in a public space?
I hate to break this to you, but the answer is, in this case, "nothing". If you are deeply offended by what others wear, your only course of action is to stay home, and not expose yourself to others' taste in clothing.

You could move to a strictly gated, private community, where others with your taste in dress can establish a dress code, enforceable by limiting membership into your private club. However, the squares in TV are not private. And TV is not a gated community.

Default It was bound to happen

There is nothing that can be done about it. Brownwood is in the center of Wildwood. You are bound to run across this as a more typical thing more sooner than later. Several low cost housing developments are opening up near the square. Live with it or go to another square.

It isn’t a golf course you know. Polos are not required.

A more pertinent question would be whether or not these were the same individuals trolling for open car doors along Neighborly Way in Lake Deaton late that night.

For some at the Squares Spandex should be banned.

I checked the search engine for "whitetail look" then whitetail look meme then whitetail meme then whitetail then whitetail urban dictionary - and the only reference to something that wasn't an actual whitetail deer, was about a guy who tries to goose a girl, and the girl backs away quick, leaving the guy with his hand in a weird position that looks like the horn of a whitetail deer.

So no idea what the OP is talking about there.

Wondering what these 4 people were *doing* that made them look sketchy. I mean other than outdated faux-thug-fashion from the 2000's and 2010's.

While he was checking out these sketchy fashion failures, did he happen to notice any grown-arse adult men wearing flip flops? If he did, did he notice any with nasty toenail fungus? Because I've totally witnessed THAT dereliction of civility, that left me with the desire to not buy an oversized pretzel at WOB, but spend that $10 on another drink at the tiki hut instead.

OP cannot possibly be telling the truth! These kind of people are only seen in the northern sections of the villages according to the wildwood folks! They can't possibly be hanging out in the city with the highest crime rate in a 50 mile radius!
