What defines jock?  Exercising, competiveness?

energy drink hats

100% those tacky energy drink hats. It’s impossible to make those look good. Jamie Foy gets a pass because he’s otherwise pretty far from being a jock, he’s prematurely balding, and it doesn’t clash with his fashion sense (or lack of one).

I know a bunch of people lost their shit over Godspeed (which did contain amazing skating/footage, no doubt), but I couldn’t get into all the energy drink hats, Athleisure pants and shitty music. Milder’s part, including the Sunset Car Wash back 3, was hugely impressive and deserves all the props and accolades. However, I didn’t come away as a fan because he just comes across as a jock. I’m probably missing something or being petty, but so be it.

No you're not.. it's an abomination.
