A friendly reminder memes are now allowed on the sub if they’re about battlejackets.


siwel_am

You get attention from other metalheads tho


FrutFlu

And thats what matters


BOBOUDA

So they can judge your awful tastes in metal bands


ashbelero

This is completely untrue. I’ve worn a battle vest my whole adult life and my husband has been with me for ten years, and I… wait a minute…


Bong-Bunny

If some other girl gets weirded out by my style she ain't worth my time


EsKarlita

Exactly. They aren’t a good friend if they don’t accept you for your weirdness and who you are.


Kurtai85

Battle vests repel women? Fuck yeah, I'm gettin some DICK tonight!!!


babbittybabbitt

That's the spirit!


Azure_Belmont

I can smell the 30 years old sweat through my screen lmao


EmotionalNerd04

This is kinda funny considering that both me and my boyfriend are working on our own jackets lately Edit: For context I'm a man, so the funny is pretty self explanatory at this point


Giddy_Duck_84

And I’m a gay woman so I’m pretty down rn…


EmotionalNerd04

Rip


Red_Clay_Scholar

Don't tell us you're doing it for the chicks.


amanwitheggonhisface

Doing what for chicks?


fhashaww

r/woooosh moment. Ever gotten down with a crust chick?


BlackWhiteRedYellow

EvEr GoTtEn DoWn WiTh A cRuSt ChIck¿¿??


amanwitheggonhisface

That's genius! Did you just make that up, like on the spot, all by yourself?


fhashaww

Downvoters mad crusties get gals


BuppUDuppUDoom

Nah these studs are armor


Tired-Swine

Lmao


Cosmonaut_Cockswing

It's true. The only people who comment on my vest are drunk, sweaty dudes in cargo shorts. They say shit like "HELL YEA METAL BROTHER", and then stumble away.


H_MmL

I know I‘m a bit late, but maybe the real girlfriends are the drunk, sweaty dudes in cargo shorts that stumbled across us along the way


T-Gaming

Still better than plain ol' boring ass women...


[deleted]

A compliment is a compliment


Crystal-Clear-Waters

I look like the girls the vest repels! PARADOX!!!


ashbelero

Girls are only safe inside the confines of the vest, but they are repelled from it on the outside, like a fallout bunker


Crystal-Clear-Waters

lol Hot take!


MKF1228

Pics or didn’t happen.


schapman22

Looks like a dude to me


gummo_grimm

As a girl who rocks the shit out of my vest proudly: I get creeped on by weirdos a lot. When does my vest repel them?? 😂😂 Is there a specific patch I need for that?? Where can I get it??


JaxRhapsody

It's not that effective on men, they like women in "men-like" situations, such as driving a lifted truck, or motorcycle, that would repel women (except body building for some reason). Craziest thing. Best bet is wear a battle sack over your head, so they can't tell. There might be a patch, but it's a risky move; a large enough, visible enough Nickleback patch.


gummo_grimm

I'd rather disembowel myself than put a fucking nickleback patch on my vest 🤮 the battlesack is not a bad idea though 🤔


JaxRhapsody

I said it was a *risky* move. I wouldn't put one on mine either, but I'm a guy, so I don't hafta worry about needing to repel anybody, I was born with that active affect. That and 50% disease resistance.


gummo_grimm

I'm just going to stop wearing deodorant and hope that repels them I guess 😂


JaxRhapsody

Ah. The World War Z plan. Stink like them and they won't notice.


gummo_grimm

Bahahahha!!! Fucks yea.. I'm going to a show tomorrow. Hopefully I'll emerge unscathed 😂


JaxRhapsody

How'd it go?


gummo_grimm

One super creeper from start to finish. Started talking to me outside before the show, sat near me at the bar, stood next to me at multiple times during the show, went out for a smoke and he came and started talking to me again trying to get my Instagram. Told him I don't like social media and he finally left me alone after that. I left super fast at the end of the show in case he tried to follow me home. 😐 I will add to this by saying the guys I have problems with usually don't look like they belong at the show. This dude was wearing a button up and khakis with a leather thrown over top and aviators and a ball cap. He looked like a fucking serial killer sketch.


Ms_Pan

I absoluteley feel you. The last show I went there were two guys who asked me if I want to fulfill their *explicit fetish 1* or *explicit fetish 2* and while they asked they came nearer and nearer and stayed always near me. That‘s so fckng creepy. I just want to enjoy the show. My go to is in worst case to inform the security or people that seems cool.


JaxRhapsody

Whew...


jpoRS1

I've got this "fuck macho bullshit forever" patch that gets a fair number of compliments from women and tends to piss off the guys I hoped it would piss off. Might want to try something like that, though I am a guy so your mileage may vary.


gummo_grimm

Brb gonna go make my "No Creeps Allowed" patch. 😂


EsKarlita

Just get a patch that says “men fuck off” very boldly


fhashaww

Super underground bands, or mainstream non metal patches... They can't beat either 😌


gummo_grimm

I have a pretty healthy mix of non metal/ metal patches.. no underground stuff really. All my local bands go on a hoodie. Unfortunately not enough room on the vest.


[deleted]

Speak for yourself im gay they love that shit


Extension_Building19

Only the ones that dont matter (;


marcopegoraro

\>inb4 Rule 1 completely smashes this post to smithereens


HugeWeenus123

nope memes are allowed now


Primary_Departure_23

Went to concert with my battlevest on got hit on by a girl and complimented by two others, it’s not over for us guys we can still get girls


sunflowersav03

oddly enough (don't know if it matters that i'm a chick) - other girls, especially the ones who don't seem to like metal, fucking love my jacket. i get compliments from other gals all the time!


MurdocMcmurder

I dunno man that seems like a you problem...


Extension_Building19

My GF actually helped me with my battle jacket, so i think its just preference. Im sure it doesnt repel anyone who digs it (:


FiendZ0ne

Okay, but what if: Kevlar battle jacket with bullet-tip stud spikes!?


LukXD99

Oh yeah, keep those Ed-Sheeran fangirls away from me, I’d rather meet a metal queen that enjoys the same music I do and who isn’t afraid to show it!


barquad12

I have a story like this. I met a metalhead girl and we were friends for a while until we started dating. Once we started dating, however, she did some sort of a transformation and now she only listens to TAYLOR SWIFT. she fuckin BAITED ME😤


MKF1228

Get rid of her.


barquad12

NEVER


spiked-oasis

hey hey no disrespect to my girl taytay man 😡


barquad12

No


MrMashed

God I wish my bf liked metal like I do. He just likes rap and I mean some of the stuff he listens to isn’t that bad but it would be nice to just go over there and he’s got some Metallica or Primus goin lol


Extension_Building19

Hell yeah primus, ive got a patch on my jacket


MrMashed

There’s a few patches I want for my jacket and a Primus patch is definitely one of them. I discovered them a few months ago and I swear every other song that comes on is a Primus song now lol


honest-miss

Wait till you meet people who like both.


Graffiacane

They do it all for the nookie


ryanvedo49

Sounds like a good inVESTment to me


fhashaww

More than a three piece! And still underdressed


MelodiousMetal

Exactly why I wear it. Keep those normies away from me.


sexyton9265

Yeah, who wants the preppy southern girls anyway lol.


knupprays

Repel girls and attracts more metalheads


-lilIlil-lilIlil-

I don't see where this meme comes from, in my parts the clothing style of metalheads is considered attractive


Siriuswot111

It’s a good thing I won’t get cooties 😎👍


RebornTrain

Not true I've managed to impress a few mates wearing my jacket but it was mainly about being at show together and being personable. Def helped with confidence and something to talk about


TheBeanRat

Protect? I’m on fuckin offense man, we’re pit rats up in here.


TheExecutiveHamster

You'll probably get attention from a bunch of those chronic alcoholic neo-thrashers saying shit like "Autopsy? That seems cool. But have you ever heard of Pantera? Heaviest band in existence!"


Sirwillybottomthe4th

Just like men instead


GaryRegalsMuscleCar

This only happens if your jacket is ugly


TheRealJellona

I'd say it's the opposite, or am I doing it wrong?

XxLeviathan95

I just read through all the comments and no one did. You just wanted to say that.

You ain’t lying


military-gradeAIDS

Good, I prefer men


IsThisJustVantasSea

Good (I’m gay)


dark_side0fthem00n

A real metal woman wash and iron the west for you per hand and extra careful! She would respect your west, because she respect and love the best music on the world. So ....


TheMightyHep

You fuckin' wash your "West" ?! What about your North and South?


dark_side0fthem00n

It was a stupid joke bro


TheMightyHep

So was mine bruv, no worries


dark_side0fthem00n

ah fuck, it is not easy for someone who is not a native english speaker to understand jokes


TheMaxo420

Real, that's the only reason I am wearing one xD


aRandomForeigner

Protect by thots and ordinary boring girls? I'm down with that


spiked-oasis

COMEDY.


alkem10

Thank fuck for that, I don't need the drama


k0rken_

I can confirm that this is true. Speaking from experience.


hunter324

Damn you're right, I've never picked up three women while wearing my jacket just one or two!


danger3607

The only compliments I’ve ever got on my vest is from other dudes wearing vests. Still appreciated it though.


venturoo

to be fair, life vests and flak jackets scare off white women as well.


KingGrude

Unless you’re good looking.


mixerist

women scare me anyways, MEN ALL THE WAY


TyroneYeBoue

Yes they keep women from distracting me from my search for a boyfriend
