This was like, 5% of millennials. Trust me, I was one of them. We got our asses kicked for dressing this way. Most everyone else either did "gangsta" style with low-hanging pants and Timberland boots/Jordans, or "preppy" style with a boring-ass polo shirt and khakis.

Don't forget about thrift store style! Which wasn't a style back then. Advantage though, us thrift store kids could switch styles daily. 'Gangsta' Monday, 'emo' Wednesday, poser Friday.

Wouldn't that just be poser every day?

Pretty much lol. Only instead of going to the store to try you just end up with what you get and make it work from there.
