Mobsters dress like, well, mobsters. I dig mobsters. I can never get enough of those italian ganster movies. Is it because I'm italian, hmmm, maybe. Mobsters are way better than those pansy pirates.
Mobsters dress better as well.
Dick Tracy and Kevin Costner for example. People like Al Capone and Dutch Schultz command a lot of respect in the Pulseboy house. Where as mobster have zoot suits at best. Pirates also sail the seven seas, swing from ropes with knives in there mouths, and generally swashbuckel. They have swords and scurvy and cannons on thier big boats.
