A store where all mindless teenage drones go so that they can look alike, spend more money than needed and feel accepted by wearing the same brand as all their other drone friends. Not doing so would mean you aren't identical to everyone else and thus not as interesting. Gasp.

Clothing for pre-teens and teens who whine incessantly to mommy and daddy to buy them clothing that is already worn out. Usually favored by middle and high school posers who want desperately to "fit in". ; A cheaper alterative for those who can't buy the equally horrible Abecrombie.
"But Mommy, all the cool kids wear AE, can I PLEEEEAAAAASE get the over-priced worn out t-shirt that looks like it came from a garage sale?"

An evil capitalist organization which purchased an amazing Canadian clothing company called Bluenotes (nee Thrifty's), and turned it into a prepy knock off company, that sells jeans that are wrinkled, torn, and look like they've been worn.
If you want worn clothes, go to Value Village.
American Eagle is about to release the ultimate in vintage clothing... Jeans that smell like cat pee...

AE would be the clearance rack at Abercrombie if they had a clearance rack. Everything says something either about California or a Varsity sport. This store is for the prep that can't afford Lacoste, Polo or a real designer brand
Gucci shopper 1: "Hey look at that! It appears that Trina is an official prep wannabe".
Gucci shopper 2: "Trina can't afford Abercrombie so she has to go to AE. How pathetic is that? I would rather wear nothing than an AE shirt".

A store that people either hate or love. Caters to a large mainstream teen demographic. Very generic, cheaply made, expensive clothes that are too similar to Hollister and Abercrombie and Fitch.
Also does not make clothes for "plus size" people. I'm not fat, but I just think that's kind of rude. It's kind of like saying: "You're too fat to enjoy our clothing."
All in all, an annoying brand that needs to go away.
