It's only worse with seagulls. I saw a cool big speckled seagull once and decided to google how it's called. It's called "big speckled seagull". A small gray seagull would be called a "small grey seagull". All the other animals are usually called something cool, like if you see a big beaver, it's "Johnson's beaver", or an eagle, and it's called a "southern nesting eagle".
Then a fucking seagull is a fucking seagull.
Those were extremely popular in a town where I worked between 2013 and 2016. As a non-Latina, I laughed a little when I first saw them, because I had never seen any shoes like that. Someone told me they were Oaxacan boots. Men who dress in traditional Oaxacan attire will often wear them.
Then you slowly follow the shoes up the uncannily thin and tall figure to be greeted with a sharp toothed smile, attached to the face of a tight skinned yet aged man "helllooo, pity about the loss of another" he states.

I'd argue it's a toned down version of these. Go to any mostly Mexican party/club, and you see these.

Reminded me of a Finnish rock group called Leningrad Cowboys. They were big over here I think when I was a kid at least.

Sometimes you need a little laugh when you're in mourning. People wearing ridiculous shit is actually a thing that helps

edit - other people in thread explaining it better!
