4:30 PM -- Regular readers of Unstrung will recall we're all dedicated followers of fashion. In fact, your correspondent is rocking a natty cream suit with a purple t-shirt today. [Ed Note: Yeah, shame about the coffee stains, at least I hope that's coffee.] So, I was disturbed to see this online store selling "steampunk" clothing. Evidently, being a steampunk involves dressing up like a psuedo-Victorian fop then having people laugh at you as you parade down the street.

Probably doesn't involve rancid wollen underwear, whalebone corsets, or any of the other privations of being a real Victorian though.

Note: The name "Steampunk" derives from a subgenre of 1980s SciFi/Fantasy fiction.
