Lost style: Friendly Mental Patient

The friendly mental patient is your type if your two favorite sections of the department store are Sleepwear and Board games. This is the type of dude who would never really get dressed -- if it were up to him. No one understands the finer points of flannel PJs or a comfy pair of slippers like this guy. The key to pulling this look off is: in every decision ask yourself 'does this make me look like I just woke up?' If it's a 'no,' toss it.

Step 2, let the hair go. Grow it out and let it do whatever it wants -- no products, no combs or even picks. You're going to need to let it grow out long enough to put it back in a pony tail. It may take awhile, but be patient -- it's worth it. It may be helpful to keep a picture of Jeffrey Lebowski nearby.

The other trick to nailing this style is to boost your board game abilities. Accumulate all games from Connect 4 to Ping Pong and get ridiculously good at them. Aside from looking cool whenever you deal out a humiliating beat down at the Ping Pong table, these games will also be your tools to gain the respect of those who don't take you seriously -- because you look like a mental patient.
