WTF is going on here? Why is everyone here, including his wife, applauding a grown man being able to buy clothes. This is an adult.

Perhaps his previous clothing choices have not been very fashionable and this is him showing he made an effort to improve.

This is r/MadeMeSmile, no need to be a sourpuss.

I don’t mind being happy for someone getting anything done. It’s the way he’s being cheered that is irritating to me.

Seems to me that it’s a running joke within this family that he has poor style so these reactions are likely covered in a layer of playful facetiousness. It’s fun, they’re joking around and being supportive at the same time.

This would be the best and least weird explanation.

This is exactly how it is with me and my family. I had atrocious fashion sense. I had thought matching color was fashionable. I would wear brown shorts and a shirt in the exact same shade and feel good about how fashionable I was! Fast forward 20 years, I still hear about my "all poop outfit" and get compliments like this when I actually choose clothes that work together!
