    i can never find anything with a 34 length under like 38 or 40 waist. i would probably need a length of tight rope around my waist to rock some 38s.

    why is it so hard to understand that a lot of tall people do not have a size 40 waist.

    I'm not tall, but my brother is 6'2"-3" and wears a 31. It's impossible for him to find pants.

    I had that problem too, but then I decided to eat more and get some muscles.

    Now I can fit into a 34 waist, which makes finding 34 and 36 lengths so much easier 8-)

    he usually has to get 36 although 38 would be ideal.

    Really depends on the brand, I like their Salty Valley and ByCorpus stuff, and I have a pair of BDG jeans that have lasted quite a while. Though from what I've heard, BDG is one of their brands to be careful of. The big deal with UO is that everything is really pricey, so you have to look out for a sale to afford a lot of their shit.

    Merino wool is the best long underwear. It doesn't even catch on fire.

    A lot of their little dresses and tees are very cheaply made. It is so sad.

    hahahaha, I saw one that said something like, "don't touch my stomach!". one of the funniest things I've ever seen was a box of pregnant lady pants from the 80s. They came in assorted colors but none of the tummy panels matched the pant color -so, there were purple pants with a lime panel and so on.

    I'm a big guy, but not TOO big. So generally I can tell relatives my neck size and the shirts are pretty close size wise. Apparently B.B. thinks guys with my size neck are behemoths. Guess I'll try their "slim cut"

    When I was younger, as in my early teens, I used to collect Transformers. In my early twenties I have switched that obsession to clothing, which is surprisingly less pricey and considerably less dorky. I have also been selling off my transformers and have made about $3000 from them, about $1000 worth of which has gone to buying clothing.

    What is it about pregnancy that makes people think it is perfectly okay to touch a complete stranger without permission

    when my mum was pregnant with twins she dreaded having to step outside the last two months simply because of how many people would come up to her and poke her or make rude comments you wouldn't make to a non-pregnant person

    You should try their Black Fleece line. It's got slimmer cuts of just about everything.

    Ask Andy's How to look your best: thin is mostly common sense, but it is helpful to have some reminders. I'm pretty sure I can recall every time I have worn a suit (less than 12), so some of it is kind of worthless, but good to know anyway.

    Someone said they were buying this shirt several pages ago. That's a nice shirt, but geez, the model makes it look terrible.
