ALTBRO or ALTBAG is a new HRO gimmick where I find pix of alternative males. Readers then must decide if the person pictures is an altBro or an altBag.

He is an AltBag because altBros are too pussie to get tattoos.

obv. altbro. check the v-neck, the key necklace, and the sunglasses.
altbags have selected the same set of clothing for several years and don’t do minor trends like that.
(aka an altbag may have, for example, been wearing a flannel, black levis, and loafers with no socks since 2003)

totally altBro. a Bag would never pull that rocker-watch bullshit.

Alt_Bag fo sho!!! Knit hat in pleasant conditions with matching tint glasses, v-neck tee with douchey peck tattoo, and untied dress shoes. No one holds the key to his heart :(

Is that a rubber bracelet from 2005, being worn ‘ironically’ in 2008?
AltBRO.

The excellent thing about this outfit (jewelry and hat included) is that it’s completely unisex. I imagine a girl wearing it with some weathered Chucks, maybe some flats or even super funky heels.

Altbag fersure. if he was an altbro, where is his posse?

Amateurs may be thrown off by the excessive wrist decoration, since it screams EntryLevel Alt/altbro who one owned pop punk records. In fact, it’s a postironic recapitulation of a 2k3 look. Taken with the tats, the key, the weather-innapropriate hat, and the fact that homebody is actually in decent shape, I think he’s pretty clearly an altbag.

overuse of bracelets
alt bros don’t need time

I say AltBag, he is trying to take himself too seriously with far too much irony.
Reply
I didn’t really think the alt-bag thing would actually catch on.
Reply
hat, necklace, glasses, bracelet/watch are all altbro material
the pants and shoes are altbag material
Reply
Obviously an alt bro who is trying to move up the charts to alt bag status.
Reply
Alt-Bro
He is solitary, has only sparse facial hair and clearly is interested in furthering his personal brand rather than getting tugs from entry level alt chicks.
Reply
The top half is looking kind broduche and the lower half (including misc. wristbands/gshock watch) is kinda sad. His pants and shooz are uglee. :oP

“super funky heels” anon 7:13?? are you for real? get the fuck out of here
Reply
i think he is an alt bro because alt bags try harder to look destitute or something. wait, do altbags also have trust funds? can you repeat the definition of an altbag?
Reply
NEITHER! He’s so far behind… no self respecting altbag OR altbro would go to a carnical, with no fellow alts. i say a stoner with no fashion taste

I choose to write in a new category: ALTBAGGT = a gay altbag

altbro.
he’s from LA, just f0llowin his scene
Reply
obv ALTBAG, look at that holdover mainstream skater haircut
Reply
all i know is that he is in dire need of an alt burger.
Reply
altBro. He’s not making any monet off of his lifestyle brand
Reply
no liberal use of flannel and that ‘unoriginal FGGT and he knows it’ attitude indicates a strong level of ALTBRO, mixed with mid level mnstrmr, specially concentrated around that chest piece that could well be confused for chest hair.

entry level alt fggt
Reply
The dichotomy is too simplistic. There is a little bit of entry level in all of us, as Carles has shrewdly observed in the past. This one, like many others, is also endowed with a liberal portion of dbagggotry. Ultimately, though, he is just trying to get the word out just like you and Aye.
This c*nt is a friend, as well as a tHOOL for our SELFREFLEXIVITIE.
Reply
Only an altbag could purposely look so much like some entry lev while still exuding such levels of loathe for self and conformists.
Reply
He is an ALTBAG because he has a spray-tan. plus he’s too polished looking, literally, it looks like someone took a buffer to his body and shined him up good.

shoes are only redeemable item here
Reply
altbag. because his veins scream FREAK. and he’s mad ana.
Reply
Realzzz Alt-Baggeszzz only shaves half they’sss Chestesezeseszes.

alt bro fo sho. the thin, rope-ish wristbandsare too authentic and honest for an altbag
Reply
altBag – he can go to really uncool places and be ok with it. i bet super altAznbabe gave him the necklace and he doesn’t care that its ghey- secure in his manhood.
Reply
altbag.
because that’s abbott kinney festival in venice. by going out to it, you’re showing you support your left-wing, art-fueled neighborhood by just walking around and prolly not buying anyone’s crap.
the alt bros don’t stay alt when it comes to lazy sunday walks around street fairs. I saw them-they’d all converted to baggy shorts. this fag stayed true to his altrntv fashion statements on a day where no one would be impressed by it.
+he’s cute.

he is a CUNTBAG

altbag. he’s alone! looks like he’s just out there for him and not for “da boyz”

eff it man, altbro or altbag, i’d do him.
Reply
altbag DUH, because his bracelets look real douche-baggy. alt bro and alt bag both sound like they have a negative connotation though…
Reply
is that adrianna’s boyfriend from the hills? Maybe I should stop watching tv with my little sister?
Reply
altbag mos obv. if he were a bro there would be a posse of friends in the distance making stupid faces. he is ironically standing there while pretending to not really care about the person taking the picture. and no self-respectable bro would wear those accessories.
Reply
This guy is definitely an Altbro because his slouchy posture is lacking any sort of the swaggering, self-promotional confidence that defines the ALTBAG in his search of dolla dolla bills.
Reply
alt bro! looks like me ;-)
Reply
altBro, clearly he put thought into it
alt-ery is running in an altBag’s veins
Reply
less AltFags more hipsterz

is it ashton kutcher?

Altbag. The veins, the shoes, and the hat. I bet that shirt isn’t even from American Apparel. I bet he stole is from the Good Will.

Just your average alt bro. Doesn’t bring too much to the table other than a drawer full of tri-blend v necks and thrift store loafers and sunglasses. Most likely loOoOoves Vampire Weekend.

altBro bc altBags r thicker/buffer/chunkyer. Skinnyst*rz r jus lilbros. MayB a skinny altBag could xist, but they would be cokey-eyed, like JztinBobby frm ThHillz.
