The Revenge of the Alligator: A Cautionary Tale Featuring Preppies
A message from my 10-year-old self: Be careful that you don't become that which you hate.
Some context. Around 1980, the big preppy craze started in America. I was 10 years old. The main feature of the preppy look was the iconic Izod shirt with an embroidered alligator on the upper left side. (Technically, it was a crocodile. We always called it an alligator shirt.)
