As Americans stare down the barrel of a second and possibly third straight month of working from home, questions of remote working etiquette have been raised. Is it okay to take a nap during the work day? Is taking a break for video games acceptable? And how important is personal hygiene, really?

Luckily, one L.A. Times writer appears to have taken it upon himself to lay down the law on work-from-home fashion. That would be Deputy Fashion Editor Adam Tschorn, who last Friday published a piece titled, "Enough with the WFH sweatpants. Dress like the adult you’re getting paid to be."

The piece is about what you'd expect. Tschorn begins with some hysterics about the state of the work-from-home world, including begging people "for the love of all that is holy" to "put away those sweatpants, ratty, gray, decades-old collegiate sweatshirts and obscure minor league baseball caps." He then dives into a helpful mnemonic device called "The Three Rs" to help people remember what they should keep in mind while dressing from home: Ritual. Respect. Reality. As far as John Cena catchphrase knockoffs go, it's not the best.

Tschorn's argument, gratingly ill-timed at best, was frankly not helped by the fact that his Twitter avatar makes him look like he's just gotten off the transcontinental railroad and is ready to sell brass instruments to the children of River City.

Twitter users, likely themselves in sweatpants, were all too ready to dunk on Mr. Tschorn, whose tweet of his article has garnered a pristine ratio of 3,200 replies to 100 retweets and 500 likes.

I’m not taking fashion advice from a guy who looks like he runs the bumper boats at a segregation-themed amusement park

And some of us look like the Fruit Stripe Zebra when we're "dressed as the adults we're paid to be," I guess. pic.twitter.com/MT4PyTiRND

Why are you dressed like a guy who sells cotton candy at Knott's Berry Farm because they didn't run your application through the sex offender registry

Even the Los Angeles Times social media manager was bewildered by Mr. Tschorn's take.

hi i am the social media editor and a robot sent this tweet, not me. sent to you from me in my peach printed pjs and cheetah robe at home https://t.co/xX1d7BFeUz

To his credit, Tschorn admits he's not a "fashion plate," writing, "Let me say at the outset that I don’t consider myself any kind of fashion plate. My personal sense of style falls somewhere between Vermont rural casual and West Coast preppy," which seems like a strange thing for the Deputy Fashion Editor of a major American newspaper to admit. Regardless, his piece was yet another gorgeous moment of Twitter banding together to dunk on a fuddy-duddy whose bewilderingly asinine takes are definitely not what the world needs right now.
