What the bloody hell is happening?

I ponder over the disgustingness that is double denim, and how it is omnipresent in my nightmares:

So basically, I woke up last week, got dressed, rushed out of my house and went to college. And to my dismay, horror and disgust, I felt as though I had entered a parallel universe. Everywhere I went, all I could see was double denim- the dreaded double denim. Ok, that's unfair, because not everyone at my college wears/ has worn double denim. But after college, I was walking home, and saw yet more people in double denim.
When did this become okay? When did it become acceptable? Don't get me wrong, I have perspective. I am fully aware that wearing jeans and a denim jacket- matching or not- isn't as bad as war, starvation and corruption. But in a materialistic first world country (England), I think it's fair to say that there are very very few excuses for wearing double denim. Recently it's become a relatively alright thing to do. I don't know how and why this has happened, but seriously, I'm not okay with it. Whenever I see someone wearing this disaster of an outfit, I want to go up to them and shout in their faces. Usually I'm all for wearing whatever you want, so long as it isn't offensive to others. But this IS offensive to me. I don't even know why double denim is so bad- it just is. There's just something innately wrong about it, and it makes me feel ill. It's as bad as wearing hiking socks with sandals in winter.

Yes, that bad.

I haven't been brought up in a vain or superficial family; most of my family are pretty chillaxed, and frankly, unfashionable. But I have always been taught boundaries, and wearing double denim is most definitely surpassing important boundaries that are there for a reason. So someone please call me when double denim is 'out' again, ok? (It hopefully won't take long). And then I can leave my house.

By the way, I can't include any pictures in this post, because I will make myself- and potentially you- extremely ill. Ciao x
