I can't even picture a guy in 42S skinny jeans. They look bad enough on a high school boy with a 29" waist.

"42s" meaning a pair of 42-inch waist jeans. Look at the letter case. Lower-case "s" as in plural 42.
I can wear my Wrangler 13MWZs (lower-case plural "S") in a 42 if I tried. I can get into them and they look great but I rarely do as daily wear because they smash the boys up which is VERY uncomfortable. And if standard-issue traditional cowboy jeans can do that then I don't even want to imagine how these tight hipster jeans would feel. Have to be like getting your masculinity caught a bench vise.
Yeah, let's maybe not even think about that.

Now, don't get me started on those jeans with all the ridiculous rips and tears... they look terrible regardless of who is wearing them!

There is an entire generation growing up who will likely never know the joy of acid-washing one's jeans and having at them with a bastard file, wood rasp, 100-grit sandpaper or a combination of the four. You know, like WE all did. Either lack of motivation, information (yeah right) or both. Remember when there was a time you couldn't *buy* ripped jeans, you had to make them yourself?
I remember doing that around 1994 with a pair of my Wranglers (third/fourth grade). I went into school rocking them one day, to my mom's chagrin, and god, thought was really hot s---. Of course they were still very much in fashion around that time since the 80s didn't actually end until around 2008 or so, and did sort of fit with that whole "grunge" thing going on then.
Now get your damn bikes offa my lawn, you ---ing kids!
