Don't forget the Patagonia vest and a pair of Allbirds.
- MrMan 4y agoI love those quilted vests a little grey at the temples also adds a lot of gravitas
- sitkack 4y agoThrow in some long pauses, dropping some quotes from someone everyone claims to have read and haven't and be 5% underweight while having pronounced delts or triceps. Throw on a pair of Sundar glasses and slip a moleskine notebook and a Montblanc Meisterstuck and you are platinum. Catalyze those synergies across complimented verticals!
- LargoLasskhyfv 4y agoPfft. Lamy Unic
- sitkack 4y agoNice, the notebook would have to be quadrille. The PhD VC angle. You would have to focus on technicals over the pure MBA pastiche.
- gamblor956 4y agobe 5% underweight while having pronounced delts or triceps. I don't get that part of the joke. Most VCs are skinny AF or quite chubby, but none of them seem to have any semblance of muscle mass?
- sitkack 4y agoIt sets the stage that they have a mind over matter level of self control, calorie negative longevity diet, self measure along with wanted to "blow off some steam" with bouldering (a high analytical physical activity).
- gamblor956 4y agoAh that's why I didn't get the joke. Boulderers don't have large triceps or deltoids...to the extant that arms are used in bouldering, it is in pulling activities that develop the back, biceps, and forearms, not the deltoids or triceps. You only get large delts and tris without developing other muscles by doing excessively long static planks.
- sitkack 4y agoYou are good! Do you play ultimate? Have you considered being a partner in a VC firm?
- fakedang 4y agoI shit you not, I often wear a vest that looks very similar to the Patagonia jacket, and I've been confused for being in the venture industry.
- andirk 4y agook I'm doing this. Can I please get the details on the whole ensemble? Blue jeans, maybe no shoes, extremely expensive tacky watch? Are we still doing the yellow wrist band?

- andirk 4y agoReminds me of when my friend and I were leaving this pay-what-you-want pro-capitalism pop-up exhibit in Brussels. At the end, there was a thing asking us to donate. My friend said "Let's leave what a true capitalist would leave" and I didn't know what he meant until I saw him walking out without giving anything.
- cowmoo728 4y agoPatagonia isn't cool anymore because they stopped selling corporate branded vests. It's Cotopaxi now. Also fashion has changed, bright colors and solid shapes are in, Patagonia's understated look is out. https://www.theinformation.com/articles/silicon-valleys-swag-gap-a-colorful-rival-comes-for-patagonias-abdicated-throne https://www.theinformation.com/articles/silicon-valleys-swag...

Also fashion has changed, bright colors and solid shapes are in, Patagonia's understated look is out. Why? Couldn't some 3rd party put desired logos on, even if Patagonia itself wont?
