Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

Neon. The last time I was in one (looking for tights), it was a lot of neon. Nary a skull-decorated goody to be seen.

Because books.

I'm not even sure I have zones of excellence to maximize.

Oh, that was me. There's also video!

Oh my good god. It's too much!

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

They should spin one off and call it "Goth Topic." Have a Halloween launch party with sugar skulls...witches on the bags, I'd shop there and I'm not really Gothic.

Sox, ask and ye shall receive.

Oh Jessica is my favorite.

Oooh, and I'm a semi-attractive attention whore!

(I swear I'm going to stop reading the comments. I just closed the window.)

I am amazed at how many people can't fathom someone dressing differently just to amuse themselves. I feel kind of sorry for them. Not a lot sorry, because obviously they're angry little trolls with no lives, but there's a mild sort of pity there.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Man, I read a few pages of those comments, and it seems like all the obnoxious people from all sides zerg rushed the reasonable people right off the article.

I mean, there are people saying only 20 year olds need to dress how they like, or what if someone dressed like Jilli gave you anaesthetics (whuhuh?), and then this:

The boss should not have the right to tell me what to wear. It's none of his business. The Constitution does not end when I go to work.

Yeah, that's precisely what a dress code is...violation of your human rights.

HUMANS.

Hey, I DO win a prize! My co-worker who's wife is working toward opening a bakery sent him in with 3 dozen cupcakes, some of which were specifically GF for meeee!

Because the clean-cut, well-groomed, averagely-dressed person would never, ever hurt you. Right, Ted Bundy?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

The comments are just kind of weird. And missing the point. Jilli and Mohawk guy (Bobek) are gainfully employed people who are not, that we know of, breaking the dress code.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Bobek was on Wait Wait, Don't Tell Me recently and said that he changed his hairstyle for every mission. This time he went with the mohawk because that's what the rest of the team voted on.

So yeah...TOTALLY out of line, dude! Dressing exactly how your team members and bosses asked you to!
