"I like weird"

Typically, the only time I go into an American Apparel is when I need to complete a Halloween costume with some basics. Actually buying something from the store to wear, I'm not into. Have you actually felt their T-shirts? They're more abrasive than a cat's tongue. And I don't know where they get off charging 30 bucks for this.
CEO Dov Charney, I'm not sold on either. I can't say whether or not he is a perv, but that many sexual harrassment claims can't be completely unfounded. Or maybe that's just me projecting onto Charney because I so very much hate ads like this.
But at least Charney doesn't own sweat shops in China. Instead, he owns slightly-lighter-perspiration shops here in the states. I just wish a product that proudly announces it's "Made in the USA" would be, well, better.
Anyway. Charney gives his first interview in a long time to CNBC, where he probably says the most amusing thing I've ever heard a CEO say. You know, besides "I'm CEO, B*tch."
