  3. No bigotry of any kind.
  4. Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.

Men, what's preventing you to dress like this?

The fact that my girlfriend would die from laughter if I did.

Life insurance for her, buddy

They almost look shrink wrapped

Not wanting to look like Douchebag McDouchebagface is what's stopping people from looking like that.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Give it about ten years and the popular style will pendulum back to fitted/tight clothing.

Just like it was before the current baggy trend and after the previous baggy trend, which was preceded by another tight trend, which was preceded by another baggy trend, and so on and so on

[–] captain_aggravated 8 points 20 hours ago

I wonder how much momentum there is in that pendulum?

I think it started swinging (at least in America) in the 30's. Between the scarcity of the depression and rationing during the war, fashions tended toward minimal. Then in the abundance of the 50's you got big puffy poodle skirts and zoot suits because we finally had a surplus.

All my trousers are too tight, it's the washing machine I swear

[–] [email protected] 4 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)

That moment when you have a pair of 36 and 44 waist shorts from the same company and both fit the same. Then you put on a 38 and they fall off your ass and a 40 is to tight. If there was more quality control in clothes I'd probably be a lot more apt to shop

[–] [email protected] 1 points 15 hours ago

Just wash everything on cold, except if there's a specific stain to remove that needs hot water.

I am not dressing for you. I am dressing for my own comfort and to satisfy legal requirements.

It means 'loser' It comes from the word 'jobber' who is a type of pro wrestler who's role is to lose and make the other guy look strong going in to more meaningful matches. (Synonyms: jabroni, enhancement talent, job guy, carpenter, fall guy) Often these are young wrestlers cutting their teeth in the business. But there are some wrestlers who specialize in the role. Note: some wrestlers (jobbers) find the word 'jobber' to be insulating, insinuating they are in the role due to lack of talent. The term enhancement talent is considered more respectful.

Thank you. TIL.

[–] itsprobablyfine 3 points 12 hours ago

One of today's lucky 10000! Search YouTube for jabroni always sunny for the source of the term being used outside wrestling

What's preventing me? For one, actually having taste in clothing.

[–] [email protected] 38 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I’m not a complete fucking bellend.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 day ago

I'm at 89% on the bellend-o-meter myself at the moment, I'm afraid that if I go over 90% I'll have to dress like them!!

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 day ago
  • I prefer to wear socks
  • I used to be fat, so skin tight shirts don't look good on me
  • I like button up shirts
  • In cool weather when I wear long trousers, I prefer not to have my ankles frozen
  • In hot weather I'm keeping as much of my legs bare as available men's bottom wear allows

All in all I don't like that style. I knew a boy who liked that style as a youth, he was a arsehole

Junk too big, I'm too fat, and it's a douchy style when taken to the extreme of the photo. Wearing well fit clothes is good, but this is something else.

I regularly have trouble finding pants where the crotch doesn't crush things or make it look like I'm smuggling sausage, the waist is wide enough, and the legs don't look like they're parachutes. Usually settle for two of the three.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 1 day ago

I can't stand tight clothes especially shirts. There are very few things more annoying and uncomfortable than a shirt that desperately wants to burrow into your armpit.

As for the pants I can't say I'd enjoy needing a changing partner:

"What's preventing you from dressing like this?"

My moderate self esteem.

[–] [email protected] 37 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Maybe I'm old-fashioned, but I don't think you should subject everyone in public to having to see the entire shape of your cock and balls in pants that are so tight you can't even walk in them.

[–] [email protected] 41 points 1 day ago

Well I'm a pervert, and that's a hard disagree from me. Very hard.

This is an example of more dollars than sense. They look terrible and paid good money for the privilege.
