It's not just that, but when something doesn't fit, what a pain it can be for everyone, especially with expiration dates for returning things.

Everything I wear is purchased off the internet. If you go to the right places, they'll even do free shipping. YOu don't have to pay taxes either unless you're buying from an instate store!

Isn't it easier to clothes-shop for men than women though? If you get a certain waist-length size for a man, it'll fine, end-of-story. But women's jeans... what a nightmare. A 2 in one brand might be like a 6 in another.

That's why you gotta know your brands. I get the measurements on the stuff I want to buy. Leon will give it to you raw and uncut.

Yeah, I know pretty much about... Gap if we're talking about jeans. I really don't go shopping often. They make their jeans "stretch", so I go in and get a size 4 and it's perfect. After the end of the day it feels like I should've gotten a 2, which is frustrating. I dislike shopping because I have to go through so many slutty clothes and grandma clothes by the time I find something that's flattering, classy, isn't shaped like a box and interesting-looking all at the same time. Dept. store clothing can be made so cheaply now being mass-produced and all.

Plus, I think it's a bit easier for men to take measurements and feel okay going by just that. Women's clothing can looks weird on boobs, or fit too weirdly between waist and hips, etc. Some women have love handles, and there's no size measurement for that, etc.

Have you ever tried sizing down to account for the stretching?

Believe it or not, I like girls that dressed plainly and casually. There's just something about the super fashion bitches that I don't like. I hate the word fashionista with a passion. It's too much for me when bitches try to look all fancy.

Bitches in peacoats and dufflecoats are killers. Those garments originated from the working men and military, which suggests masculinity, so the silhouette looks awful on females. The thick fabric, boxy shape, and strong shoulders are suited for men.

Well, went down a pant size (for now), plus didn't know they were stretch until after I bought them! Bummer.

Had a big post here, but decided just to get rid of it.

I'm fortunate to be able to get clothes off the rack that generally fit me pretty good. I'd say guys in general don't care as much about clothing but the more I think about it...yes, it is true. I'm a bit picky myself but I can usually tell what will look good on me and what won't. When I'm 195lbs anything looks great on me. If I get bigger, shirts start to look funny because I'm fat. If I get smaller, an XL shirt gets all ruffled if tucked in or hangs funny if not tucked in. I have wide shoulders and a large chest so that can be difficult.

I dress very casual all the time. I rarely dress up. At work it is Levi's 501 blue jeans and a polo shirt pretty much every day. At home it can be jeans or a variety of different shorts (jean, board, cargo, etc) with a polo shirt, a t-shirt, a henley or whatever. I'm not big on tank-tops although I did go through a wife-beater stage years ago...lol. I have a variety of boxers but most are plaid. No cute cartoons or whatever for me. Socks are typically plain white ankle socks for work (comfort over style) and going out could be something more casual. I have quite a few pairs of argyle socks as well. I used to wear them with vans and shorts when I was younger. Stylish? Didn't care. I do have a bit of a shoe fetish. I'm not sure how many I have but I'd guess about 20 pairs. My favorite sneakers are New Balance. I have a clean white pair I wear out to run errands and a black pair for around the yard and an old black pair for cutting the grass, weed-eating, etc. I have a pair of Asics running shoes. My favorite work shoes are a pair of black leather Timberland oxfords. They are about wore out though and I have been unable to find another pair. I've been to their website, other sites and multiple stores. Dress shoes...I have quite a few pairs but I wear the black nunn-bush square toes more than any others. I have a few pairs of oxfords (gloss black, matte black, brown, etc), some Sperry top-siders that I haven't worn in forever and a few others that I rarely wear. If I'm going out to dinner (casual) I wear a pair of brown distressed leather Streetcars, a pair of 501s (hate that they're not made in USA now) and a button-up shirt with a t-shirt under it usually.

I also like nice watches. Note than when I say nice I mean average dept. store nice, not billionaire boys club nice. I don't own any expensive watches yet but maybe one day. I've been thinking about a Tag Hauer but can't justify it. I wear a Bulova or a Seiko kinetic most days. I also have a Citizen but it's a little too dressy for me. It was a gift. I do not like the current super-big rap-star watches.

I wear glasses now so I have 3 different pairs. I wear brown half-rimmed ones most days.

Speaking of forgetting things.

@Dinny: What is your moon and asc sign, again?

@Star: Same question. I can't remember yours, either, I know Virgo is somewhere in there.

so the stars gave you a JUPITER theme. You're not the first person I seen with a moon in pisces and a sagi asc to go with it. It's like a combo at a fast food restaurant. the sagi asc is the soft drink. the pisc moon are the fries

Oh yeah, Virgo midheaven, silly me Stupid But Cute

Isn't the midheaven usually the sign that one would guess somebody as? I forgot, but it's suppose to be similar to an asc, right?

.......And how on earth can I forget about that amazing moon of yours.Shake Fist

Midheaven is career and public reputation.

I haven't ever guessed someone as their midheaven before. Have you? The Sun or the Sun's duad is always the easiest for me. The ascendant is supposed to be the first impression, but I have trouble guessing those right too.

I thought someone was a Virgo Asc, they turn out to be an Aries Asc. Two very different signs.

Holy shit, I just met another kid with a Sagi Asc and Pisces Moon. If you look hard enough, you'll begin to see that every chart has a theme. This Jupiter one is common.

I don't think anyone is really good at the "guess that sign" game. That shit is tough. I am probably better at guessing people moon signs.........maybe.

Funny that you mentioned the Sag and Pis, I know someone with a Sag/sun and Pis/moon.....................she a BITCH...........A.........DRAMA QUEEN................BITCH.

Huh oh my asc is Pisces and my moon is Leo. My asc is on the cusp of Aries, my moon on the cusp of Virgo.

@Leon: "Like"......yeah that's real cute. Put it like this "Like" was a HUGE understatement, for the both of US a long time ago. Were now at the point were if either one of us were on fire, we wouldn't even care to piss on one another.

@Dinny: I like your Asc, can we trade? Laughing
