Ty Watches The Met Gala

I am not a fashionable person. I like to wear comfortable clothing whenever possible. I am a hooded sweatshirt and shorts type of guy. I almost always have a hat on, unless I have just shaved my head. My attire is simple and comfy.

During the week we had the Met Gala and I was blown away at some of these outfits I saw. I mean, it was wild people. I don't know how many of you check in on the Met Gala, or at least look at the clothing, but this was next level insane. I was talking to my folks about it and they had some takes as well. My mom loved looking at the clothing. She said she was checking out all of the outfits on the internet. She was telling me about her favorites and some of the wilder things she saw. My dad didn't really seem to care, but he knew about the whole deal. He knows what the Gala is and why they do it. As does my mom. But my dad's takes were not as interesting as my mom's. I get it. I am usually the same. But I paid more attention this year. I saw stuff online. I talked to my wife about it a bunch. I think I piqued her interest in fact.

I was astounded at what I saw and wanted everyone else to be interested. Doja Cat had makeup that made her look like an actual cat. She also had diamonds all over her dress. Not to be outdone, pretentious asshole Jared Leto was wearing an actual cat outfit. Head and all. He was dressed as a literal cat. It looked very uncomfortable and cumbersome. I didn't get his look at all. Lil Nas X looked like a futuristic spaceman. He had all kinds of diamonds covering his full body. He had a facemask that looked like it was encrusted in diamonds. I can't imagine that was fun to sit down in, but he was able to pull it off. You could barely see Rhianna. Her face was covered in some kind of white headdress. Cardi B had the biggest skirt I have ever seen. Pedro Pascal had some shorts on, which apparently drove the internet wild. The hairdos were nuts. Quinta Brunson, who I adore, had some big buns put in her hair. Paris Hilton's date had some wild comb over do. Janalle Monae had some wild braids, but she did look great. Some people looked "regular" for this event. Dua Lipa looked great. So did Margot Robbie. Lizzo crushed. Russell Westbrook was very mild mannered. Kendrick Lamar wore something that I would wear on an everyday basis.

Basically, this whole thing looks like it is an event covering opulence. I'm not one for opulence, but some people are I guess. I never cared about any of this stuff before, and I still don't very much, but this is the first time I actually looked into the whole deal. This is the first time I did some research and talked to some other people about it. It is fascinating but also not my cup of tea. But I had some things I wanted to tell you all about. I had never really delved into this stuff at all, but there are some wild things about this whole deal, but most of all it is the outfits.

This was a fun little wormhole I went down. Check it out if you are interested at all. It is interesting.
