Bad cotton tape is all wrinkled, as when I do it.
I agree it looks great, but it's hard on your hands unless you wear gloves, which I don't because I'm too lazy: I don't like having to take them off and put them somewhere every time I need to get something out of one of my pockets.
Of course, none of that means that you're necessarily not part of the great unwashed.
