Are all clothes designed by fags? Dieselmh goes shopping. (profanity inside)

[Dieselmh]

What kind of fucking faggots are designing clothes these days? Seriously, when did it become "in style" for men to wear girly shit with frills and dangly tie straps, or shirts that are short, so your stomach shows? (especially when they are made in XL, XXL, etc :barf: )

Since I've been losing weight, almost 90 lbs now, I needed some new clothes badly. Since I'm down to a 38 waist from a 44, I don't have to shop at the fat stores anymore. Yeah, yeah, I know, "They're not fat stores, they're Big and Tall stores". Whatever. They just throw in the "Tall" part because no one wants to shop at the "Fatass Inc, clothing and tent manufacturer" outlet store. Somehow, throwing the word "tall" in the name makes it better. :confused: "I'm here because I'm tall." I'm sorry, but we measure height vertically, not horizontally, the fat section is over there. :rolleyes:

Anyway, I get to shop at "normal" stores now. You know, all the ones that regular people shop at, the ones that I used to go into only to buy gift cards for people for Christmas, or to stare at the hot chicks shopping there. After all, who wants to go window-shopping for poon at a Fat Store? :barf: So, we decide to go to Kohl's to buy some summer clothes for our upcoming cruise, and pick up a few pairs of jeans, and some shirts. This is when my "What the fuck has happened to the World" radar kicked in. They've got "men's" shorts with these little straps that hang down from the legs, so that you can tie them, making them fit tightly to your legs. Now, I could understand this if these were some kind of rugged, jungle attire, and you didn't want a rabid three-toed sloth climbing up your leg and dining on your twig and berries, but these were fucking khaki shorts. What man in his right mind wants little tie ribbons hanging from his leg? (Besides DrunkTank, I mean.)

OK, I notice that the tie strap thingies can be removed, leaving no trace of their faggotry, except for two small slits in the inside of the fabric where they were inserted. Cool, I bought two pair, and the tie thingies never left the store. On to jeans, this'll be easy. Stupid me. :shaking: When the fuck did it become the "in" thing to pay full price for, and wear, new jeans that look like they're worn out? Cathy tried to explain that that's what everyone wears, so I tried to go along. I tried on a pair of jeans that cost like $40, even though they already looked like half of my old jeans, with snags on the pockets, worn spots on the pocket where the wallet goes, etc. People actually pay full price for this shit, no wonder everyone things American's are idiots, we are. The second pair is where the shit hit the fan. Not literally, although if there had been a fan in the dressing room, and I had had a bag of shit, and could have executed the plan as to avoid getting shit on myself, I probably would have done so. These pants actually had small holes worn into the knees of the pants from the factory. What kind of a fucking faggot actually buys and wears pants with holes in the knees? Does this give you street cred with your cocksucking friends, or do they see through your faggoty scheme and tease you for liking girls? If not for that time I caught Welby riding MattS like a jockey, these jeans would've been the gayest fucking things I'd ever seen in my life. Finally, I found some jeans that were blue. Not pre-faded, not pre-torn, just blue. Game on, time for shirts and swimming shorts.

WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE????? Men’s button up shirts that are too short to tuck in, too small to button, and come with color coordinated undershirts? Apparently you just leave the shirt unbuttoned and untucked, so that the undershirt is openly visible. What's the fucking point of wearing a button up shirt if it's not buttoned or tucked in? This is fucking Texas, and it's summer, why in the hell would I want to wear two layers of clothing? If I want everyone to see my undershirt, I'll just wear that fucking shirt! Not to mention, what's up with all the pink, bright yellow, etc men’s shirts? Is it cool for guys to wear girly colors now, or are all the men turning into fags? Jesus jumping Christ on a pogo stick, what is the World coming to? At least the fatass stores realize that not all guys what their clothes to scream "I'm here and I'm queer!" and stick to colors that don't cause temporary blindness. At this point, I'm seriously thinking about indulging in a 7 day binge of chocolate chip cookies, ice cream, and that canned syrup stuff that they use to make soft drinks, just to gain enough weight so that I can go back to my heterosexual Fat store and buy some normal clothes. I finally pick out a couple of plain colored shirts that look as though they're ready to kick the shit out of all the gay shirts around them. In fact, I noticed a pile of gay shirts underneath the rack of one of the shirts I bought, and thought "I don't care if this shirt fits or not, I am going to rescue it before it is overrun by it's cocksucking neighbors." It looked as though it had been doing a pretty good job of fending off the advancement of the fairy troops, but I didn't know how long it could hold it's position. I have no doubt that this shirt will serve me well. OK, mission "find the two straight shirts in a sea of faggotry" complete, time for swimming trunks.

Once again, only a pole smoker would design most of these things. First of all, what's up with the lack of crotch space? Now, I'm not hung like a horse by any means, but putting on some of these shorts was like trying to squeeze a watermelon and two grapefruits into one of those small sandwich bags. You know, not the Ziploc ones, the cheapass ones you had growing up. The ones where you put the sammich in it, then you have to fold the flap over, then fold that little pocket thing inside out, so that it covers your sandwich enough to keep out mice and shit, but leaves enough of an air gap to ensure that your sammich is plenty stale and dry by lunchtime. Yeah, those sandwich bags. So, I finally find a pair of swimming shorts that don't shove my nuts up into my chest, then I find out that they're board shorts. What's up with these dumbass things? They're like regular swimming shorts, but longer. GREAT, now I can carry around a few extra pounds of wet shorts when I get out of the pool AND have some stupid looking tan lines when I'm wearing regular shorts, it's a win-win situation. Nope, the "board" shorts go back. I move on to another section of swimming attire, and find another pair that don't crush my stones, and aren't retardedly long. Only one small downfall, there is literally no crotch movement allowed. What I mean by this is that if I put them on, my balls didn't get smashed, they (the shorts, not my balls) didn't hang below my knees (not that my balls hang that low either, but you get my drift), but I quite literally couldn't spread my legs apart. Who in the hell designed these things? Heaven forbid I actually want to walk in these God-forsaken things, much less swim. Who cares if they're called swimming trunks, you don't need leg movement to swim, do you? :mad3: Not to mention those dumb fucking fake underwear things that are permanently attached to the inside. Are those things specifically designed to sneak up your ass crack like a tribe of renegade Injuns, or is that just a cool side effect of their ability to allow one of your nuts to wiggle it's way out, and be rubbed against the cheap plastic-like material of the shorts until it feels like it's been put through a meat grinder? While pondering this thought (out loud, apparently), I was answered from the other side of the particleboard dressing room door. Apparently, according to this girl (I guess it could have been a guy, considering the trend of feminism in men these days), those fake underwear things are supposed to keep your junk from showing. Now, once again, I didn't grow up with the nickname of "King Kong Long Dong", but somehow I just don't think that that 1/32" thick material is gonna keep little Diesel and his nutty friends from being visible if they decide they want to announce themselves to the World. I'm sorry if you have a tiny pecker, and the fake underwear actually do hide it from the World, but life's tough, and one day when you move out of your mom's basement, you're going to get some chick drunk at a party, or perhaps hire a whore or get molested by a biker chick, and she's going to break the bad news to you anyway. Life's tough, get a helmet.

I finally find a pair of swimming shorts that don't smash my nuts, allow enough leg movement to actually move, don't hang down to my calves, and don't have bright pink flowers on them. What the FUCK? They cost almost as much as the non-gay jeans I bought? Oh well, it's worth it just to get the hell out of there. Thinking that my ordeal is over, I head towards the checkout line, but not before passing some guy that was obviously in denial about something. This dude was fairly large (muscular), covered in tats, and wearing a pink sleeveless shirt. I'm not sure if the pink shirt was supposed to offset his manliness, or if his muscles were supposed to offset the gayness of his shirt, but something wasn't right with him. Oh, and let's not forget the 50 something year old lady wearing a BRIGHT pink and yellow summer dress that just barely hung below her saggy ass cheeks, with pigtails (on her head, not ass. Actually, she may have had pigtails on her ass, but I didn't look that closely) and HUGE, saggy boobs crammed into a tiny pink top, that somewhat resembled two partially deflated footballs jammed into an A-cup bra. Spend much time on the tanning bed, do we? What made this sight even worse is that this lady was accompanied by either her daughter or granddaughter, who couldn't have been more than 12 or 13 years old. When I say this, I mean that she was just a young girl, no hot body, no boobs, no ass to speak of, no shape, nothing, just a young, skinny girl. Apparently she got all of her dressing tips from the hag she was following, all the way from the makeup that looks like it was applied with a slingshot from 2 feet away, down to the "Cowgirls have it, Cowboys want it" T-shirt that only covered half of her abdomen, and was so tight that you could literally see her nipples through it, which only further drove home the fact that she was really young, and boobless. Oh, and let's not forget the coupe de gras, her shorts, which were so short that you could see her ass cheeks hanging out the bottom, or would've been able to see them, if she was old enough to actually have a developed ass, and the word "DANCE" written across the ass in HUGE white letters. NO, you're not trying to draw attention to yourself. :shaking: My guess is that she would probably be pregnant by now, if she was actually old enough to have a period. Like mother, like daughter, I guess.

Fuck shopping, I'm done. Thank God I'm a man, and this $150 of clothing should at least last me a year or more, at which point I guess I'll have to battle the latest in homo trends and set out once again in the search for clothes that a regular man can actually wear without having to duct tape his nuts to his asshole. This whole "metro" thing has gotten WAAAAAY out of hand. :rolleyes:

The End.

Cliff's notes: Shopping sucks, men are turning into women, shopping sucks, women and girls are apparently TRYING to be labeled sluts, people actually pay for clothes that look old, shopping sucks, and shopping sucks. :flipoff2:

Unleash the grammar and spelling Nazis! :flipoff2:

You da man Diesel!!! That was great. I totally agree. I walked into Pacific Sunwear to get some t-shirts (they used to have a few good ones) I look around and All I see are three colors. olive,white, and brown. There may have been a blue here and there but not much at all. WTF!!!???!?!??? I immedeatley turn around and walk out. The chick i was with wanted some clothes too (go figure) so we went to a few different stores....low and behold the same damned colors in every one of them. Do the stores now coordinate this gayness? granted its not pink and orange ect but still only give three options, again WTF??!?!??!?!?

I've been losing weight, almost 90 lbs now...

:beer:

Loosin' the weight, but not your sense of humor. :laughing:

[Thump]

90 lbs and a 38 inch waist??? good for ya.

I read this entire thing out loud to my coworkers and there are more tears on men than you can imagine... we are all laughing our asses off right about now.

I, also, had to go shopping this past weekend. I completely agree.
Walked into Tommy Hilfiger (outlet store mall here in Phx area) and asked where the men's clothes are. The doorfag (definitely no longer a man) directed me to a wall of rainbow colors. I responded to him, in a rather loud voice, "No, the looks more like what a fag would wear. I want MEN's clothing"
I was asked to leave after half the store turned their heads to stare at someone who would actually speak out against that shit.

[Dieselmh]

Sears means a trip to the mall, which means even more faggotry and ugly, haggard women trying to relive their youth by dressing slutty and showing off their old, worn out boobs. :barf: Not to mention, the last time I went into a Sears, they were WAY overpriced. Kohl's is a department store that is supposed to have good prices and good clothes. The prices weren't all that bad.

BTW, I despise Walmart, and the only clothes I'll buy from there are my workout clothes, since I know what size I wear, and can run in, grab a few pairs of workout shirts and shorts and get the fawk out before I get overrun by redneck white trash stocking up on sardines and crackers, or the Mexicans buying all the outdated fruit they can get their hands on! :rolleyes:

[qwiksilver]

Where the hell are you shopping and can I send some of the guys here there?

All the 4x4 men here wear cargo shorts and t-shirts that are two sizes too big. Period. 24/7/365. It's so ugly that I've gone celebate.

What ever happened to men who wore Lee Wranglers that fit, not tight just fit, and a nice shirt in a nice guy color like black or blue or white if he can keep it that way? I like a man in boots and not "cross-trainers" (You can spot an American in Europe...white cross-trainers. That's how terrorists find us in bars.) And do we have to have something stupid on the front of every t-shirt. (Another way to spot Americans abroad.)

Anyway, funny stuff.

BTW...were you trying on the correct size? Sounds like you were trying on something for a twig boy. You've lost weight (good going there), not become an anorexic.

[rockota]

Amen, Diesel, Amen!

I needed new "work" clothes, and being a guy with no fashion sense, I brought a very attractive and intelligent, and shopping addicted coworker with me to aid in the prevention of me attempting to buy dungarees for a business formal environment...

Ten minutes into looking at shirts and ties she looks at me and says: "I didn't think this would be so hard. It would be so much easier if you were gay." :laughing: :laughing:

Thank you thankyou very much I needed a good laugh and I completely agree with you that morons design clothes today.

and great job on the loss dude., it takes a man to face reality and change it. :) :smokin:

[Blazilla]

Diesel-

Don't they have "Old Navy" in tx? I can purchase a full wardrobe there; pants, underwear, t-shirts, button-ups, polo shirts, longsleeve-T's, shorts, jackets... basically everything but plain white undershirts and socks, for around 150.
My last trip there got me two pairs of plain jeans, two longsleeve-T's, two button-ups and some regular Khaki pants for a little over 50 bucks. Nothing fancy, nothing trendy or metro, just nice clean plain clothes.

At your weight I would have guessed a larger waist size, 38's are a dime-a-dozen on their clearance racks. Shirts, I don't know if they have anything bigger than XXL, but my dad is almost your size (6'2", 290) and he always finds plenty that fits there. Come to think of it, my older brother is quite a bit larger than you, and he finds shirts there occasionally as well.

Just a suggestion.

And Congrats on the continued weight loss/health improvement.

[Tolly]

I agree 100%, I feel the same way when I go shopping, prolly why I only do it about every three years. Drives me batty!
Don't go back to Kohl's, just the name sounds gay. The 'ol lady has ben picking up my clothes for a while now, she does a good job, they fit and look good. Other than that I buy most my stuff at the army surplus.

[Dieselmh]

He's not fat anymore and needed new clothes, he had never been to a normal retail store (although I wouldn't call Kohl's high end designer :rolleyes: ) and was immediately cultured shocked.


You, sir, are WRONG!!!













I'm still fat! :flipoff2:
Btw, are you saying that the high-end designers are less gay than the cheaper stores? If this is so, it may be worth the money and frustration to visit the mall, but somehow I just don't think that's the case! :shaking:


Hell I have a hard time finding a pair of jeans that are not cut down to my ass-crack. I just want some normal clothes :crybaby2: I feel your pain man :D
I understand what you mean, and despite the fashion hell I went through, I really feel sorry for women. It's almost impossible to go out in public without seeing women wearing clothes with their asses hanging out, or their boobs all smushed up to their chins. (I mean both of those in a bad way, because as we all know, sometimes, on certain people, those things are the anti-sexay) And don't even get me started on the elementary aged girls wearing low cut pants with their thongs showing. :mad3: Do people actually want their girls to be considered sex objects at that age? :confused:


All the 4x4 men here wear cargo shorts and t-shirts that are two sizes too big.
BTW...were you trying on the correct size? Sounds like you were trying on something for a twig boy. You've lost weight (good going there), not become an anorexic.

Cathy bought me a pair of cargo shorts one time. I think my first response was something along the lines of: "What the hell, are we going on some kind of trip where we can only take as much stuff with us as we can carry in our clothes? :confused: I never understood the concept of having 12 pockets on a pair of shorts. I like my shirts a little baggy, so that I can move around and work without them binding, but now that I'm losing weight, I'm finding out that there is definately such as thing as too baggy. Oh, and a 38 waist is right. In fact, all of my new jeans are a 38 waist. I don't carry a lot of extra fat on my waist, mainly the fat reserves are everything above and below it! :D

Yeah, we have them, and I've been there. In fact, I did buy a couple pairs of jeans from there, but they also have all the same pre-worn, pre-torn crap as everyone else. I was able to find two pairs of plain old blue jeans in my size. I also have a couple of shirts from them, but I don't really enjoy being a walking billboard for them, considering most of their T-shirts have "Old Navy" written right across the chest. :rolleyes: It's not really a problem finding shirts, since I'm down to a XXL, it's a matter of finding shirts that don't suck, and don't attract fags. I was guessing that I would've had a larger waist too, but 38 it is. I carry my weight in other places, namely everywhere but my waist. :D Actually, I have huge thighs, which is a big deciding factor in what jeans I buy also. I could actually probably squeeze into a 36 waist if I could get the jeans over my fat ass and ginormous thighs. :(

Rockota: Cathy even commented about how "unmanly" the men's stuff is nowadays. :shaking: I guess a lot of women out there like their men to be pretty. :confused:

Tolly: I can't really have Cathy buy me clothes, because at this point, I don't really know what size I wear. I'm still losing weight, and depending on the manufacturer, I can wear either an XL or XXL shirt, and between 38-40 inch waist jeans.

[gipper]

swimsuits blow. Try Nautica. I've had great luck with theirs fitting decently.


for jeans and shirts, I second Old Navy.

I have great luck there and usually come out with jeans for about 30 bucks.

[Blazilla]

I don't really enjoy being a walking billboard for them, considering most of their T-shirts have "Old Navy" written right across the chest. :rolleyes:

I can agree with that whole-heartedly. I have yet to find a t-shirt (longsleeve or normal) that doesn't have either "Old Navy" or "Brackensburg Tough Guy Rugby Club '78" or something else gay like that. The polo's and Button-ups rarely have logos or anything on them, which is good.

:flipoff2: Thanks for wrecking my keyboard. I had a big gulp of water in my mouth when I started reading. For the weight loss, good on ya. For the lyrical mastery of the bane of male existence (shopping) Damn fine! BTW, I'm 6'2" 350 and dropping. I don't know if you have a JC Penny's but the catalog still has non ghey men's Levi's and swim shorts. (The swim shorts still have the nasty nut'n rod containment system but they at least don't look ghey).
Thanks for the laugh.

Diesel,

When your dropping weight like you are... Walmart and Target are your friend. If you hate Wally World check out Target. Decent fitting jeans for $15. Most of my wardrobe anymore consists of junk from one of these places. The down side of dropping weight is having to buy clothes that are only going to last you a couple of months.

You are funny.

Hell I have a hard time finding a pair of jeans that are not cut down to my ass-crack. I just want some normal clothes :crybaby2: I feel your pain man :D
And I feel yours!! (pain, that is!!) Women's clothes are just as bad---they make them for the anorexic, boobless, hipless, Renee Zellwegger girls or the cheap Vegas stripper type of girl. ( I realize that this is a popular look for men to enjoy---)

I'm tall, not fat but definately not skinny and it sucks ass to try to find clothes. It takes all the fun out of shopping. So, I buy in bulk...find one thing that fits right---buy every color that I like. (which is about 4)

Great story :D ---girls have problems too---just a bit different...

[JR2]

Here is the solution to all your problems... http://www.sierratradingpost.com

They sell Carhart Jeans in regular blue and beefy-t t-shits all at good prices. They actually have some other shirts that are not bad too. Don't be put off by there website as it looks like they sell some gay shit too, but dig in and you can find some good stuff.

And Congrats on the continued weight loss/health improvement.


I have to say, Old Navy, sucks for clothes for me. I have honestly found one button down shirt that fits like I like period. I do got a work shirt but it's tight on my arms. Only place I can find boxers, shorts, and jeans that really fit me is American Eagle. Carhartts fit too.

[mudslinger99]

Bass Pro Shop is where to go to get some good clothes :D

That is about the only store I don't mind looking at clothes.. I have bought some nice clothes 'and a lot of other stuff'' from there for a good price.. They have some good dress shirts and plenty of everyday T-shirts.. And best of all it certainly don't attract the faggot types :flipoff2:

[animator]

Gotta agree with the Bass Pro Shop. I haven't actually bought any clothes from there yet, but did look around for a bit.

I've been impressed with Old Navy with their pants sizes. Getting a 34x36 is damn near impossible, but they seem to keep quite a few on hand. Bought my last several pairs of jeans and khakies there. Polo shirts aren't too bad either.


It's been a few years since I've been clothes shopping... probably gonna have to go again sometime soon... :(

[NotMatt]

NotMatt's male fashion rules: Dickies for when you have to be "formal", Carhartts for everything else. Arizona button-up shirts for when you have to be "formal", hanes plain white T's and a few select favorite T-shirts for everything else. Dickies shorts. Dickies pants cut off below the knee and hemmed properly may be worn in place of actual "shorts".

I HATE clothes shopping, but moreso, I hate the fact that T-shirt manufacturers can't seem to agree on what an XL size shirt is. Half the time they're too big, lots of times they're too small, only a few times do the actually fit correctly (See "hanes plain white T's" above). I must have a "long" torsoe, because I have a hard time finding t-shirts that actually fit me length wise.

My other gripe is this... why are there no manufacturers that make pants with an inseam shorter than 30"? I wear like a 28.5" inseam based on how much I have to cut off of a 30" pair of jeans and then hem. Good thing I own a sewing machine and know how to use it.

[indulf]

these days i only get clothes from:

lands end
cabela's
orvis (too freaking expensive!)
tommy bahama (too freaking expensive! but the swimsuits are nice)
duluth trading company
anywhere that sells carhartt

all my khakis are from old navy cause they're cheap

yeah old navy has all the gay stuff, but if you dig around you can get normal clothes there too...

filene's basement is a great store too, dunno if they have one around you. nice designer stuff for cheap. yes they have a lot of queer stuff, but lots of standard polo shirts (golf shirts and oxfords) for cheap.

grats on the weight loss, im workin on it too :D

[Muddin]

I love Old Navy.
It's stylish clothes, not expensive, you can still buy jeans you can bend over in :shaking: You can buy jeans that you *almost* can't bend over in :flipoff2:


I walk into department stores and I wonder what women wear to work nowadays :confused:
If your boobs are popping out, your shirt not see-through, or your stomach or ass crack isn't showing then you're out of style. And this is professional clothing!

I'm not even going to get on a rant about clothes designed for women with adolescent curves.

Well, yes I am. Have designers looked around? I know they tend to hang out with *models* but they're missing their market. Most women have curves. Design the f-ing clothes for that!! Yes, Mr. Designer, my butt is bigger than my waist you skinny little....:mad:

[fledgling666]

wtf is this Kohl's??

+1






















i know khol's is a dept store, what i'm wondering is why a man would be caught dead shopping there and then ANOUNCING it on PBB. now, granted, i've never been inside a khol's and up to now, i wouldn't have known what was inside, but of course, now that i know, i will continue NOT shopping there.

i buy my levi's from walmart, target, sears, jcpenny, or anywhere else that is having a sale and has the ones i like. the other half of my uniform is black pocket tee shirts and they are plentiful at walmart for cheap.

ps- good on the weight loss, but how much do you actually weigh NOW? what did you weigh before? i'm 240 and i am a 38w, but 6'1". i need to lose a few lbs too.

oh, yeah, funny.

Ladies how about the fact that we have a hard dime buying jeans online. Men have it easy with their sizes. A women's size 4 can end up being all kinds of different sizes even in Old Navy. Did I forget to mention that usually there are no $9.99 jeans for us. If it is for women they want to add at least $15-$50 to the price. You guys have it easy :mad3: :flipoff2:

[Terrys_85_Toy]

I do about 90% of my clothes shopping on-line now. Check out Landsend.com. Or for the speciality shit, tshirthell.com. Now when I say I do about 90% of my shopping online, that doesn't mean that's where 90% of my clothes are from, just 90% of what I buy. Which is about 30% of my wardrobe. My wife buys most of my clothes for me because I hate the mall and I get lost/confused in the clothes depts. I think most of my stuff comes from either Kohls or Old Navy.

I HATE this, I don't even try online I have to try on EVERYTHING!!! I've even had trouble in Old Navy with the color of jeans being sized different. Lt blue were slightly larger than dark blue WTF!!! I've just lost 20 pounds and have 10 more to go, and I have mixed feelings about shopping for the new clothes I'll need because the designers are sooo RETARDED!!!!

[fullygruntled]

Ladies how about the fact that we have a hard dime buying jeans online. Men have it easy with their sizes....

Not true.

I'm about a 35 waist, and depending on the manufacture a 34 or 36 might be completely unwearable or fit just fine n' dandy. I also have short thick little hairy swarthy Scottsman legs, so finding a pair that fits and is not overly baggy or long is also a challenge.

Fortunately, I don't give a rat's ass what I look like, so I can usually find something plain, cheap, and beltable at the thrift store.

[fullygruntled]

designers are sooo RETARDED!!!!

Naturally.

Think for a second about the people in high school that wanted to go into design. That's just who's doing it now, and who always has.

I do the exact same thing!!!! :laughing: Someone called me out on that the other day at work :p

[bigun]

ROLFLOL!!! The only things I buy in stores is underwear everything else comes from Cabelas. No fuss no muss. No having to try and use fitting rooms designed for little people who are also gymnist's/yoga practicioners. Foot wear Tony Lama lace ups. Congrats on the weight loss!!!!!!

That's very true of most brands. I have to go and return a pair of pants today because the black ones fit, so I also bought gray. The gray doesn't fit. :shaking:

Just for an update to this dumbass thread, here's a pic of me getting ready for my 10 year High School reunion. The sad part is that these were the least gay clothes I could find in the store, Jesus shoes included. :rolleyes: I know fat people aren't supposed to wear horizontal stripes, but really, it's not like a few vertical stripes are gonna hide the extra 50 lbs I'm carrying around. Not only did I feel so gay that I kept checking my ass to make sure there wasn't a weiner in it, I was also hoping that my buddy wouldn't start a fight at the reunion, 'cause I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be able to fight worth a damn in my Jesus shoes. :( OH, BTW, I'm at 290 lbs in this pic.

Not gonna happen. The only reason I even have those clothes is because of my reunion. All of my other clothes pull double duty as work (paid) clothes, and real work (unpaid, at home) clothes. I ain't buyin' no slacks, I hate button up shirts, especially long sleeves, and I'm not sure what you mean by "real" shoes, but if you're talking about loafers, or whatever the hell you call 'em, then I'll pass. I wear tennis shoes or boots, depending on how dirty I plan on getting, t-shirts and jeans. Oh, and I'm not worried about picking up chicks, I've already got a keeper. :D

Dieselmh - I like your style man, your original post was right on. The only shopping i do in any kind of outlet store or mall is underwear and socks. I get my underwear at Jockey (sport boxer briefs kick ass, great support), and i get cheep tube socks for boots and lowrider "fag socks" for hiding in my shoes (i hate looking at white socks, its a mental thing) EVERYTHING ELSE comes from a local store similar to Cabellas, basicly i have a wardrobe of Carhartt clothing, that and any free t-shirt i can get my grubby paws on.

For future reference, shopping is gay (in every sence of the word gay) and should only be done in severe moderation and at MANLY stores such as cabellas, Sam's (my local store), and maybe sears, havnt been there in a while...

Yeah, right! I've heard some pretty sneaky lines before, Mister, but that one ain't gonna work! :D BTW, I think my sense of humor comes from years abuse from Dad, growing up in the country, where we had to keep ourselves amused when we weren't shoveling cow shit or butchering hogs, and the fact that my job is so retarded that I'd literally explode if I took everything seriously. Given that I like the janitor here, and would hate to make him clean up a mess that big, I try to stay in my "happy" place. :D Cathy tried to make me feel better: "But look, all the guys are wearing shoes and shirts like that." Great, now not only am I dressed like a fag, but now I'm surrounded by a bunch of other guys dressed like fags. :rolleyes: I'm surprised a slap-fight didn't break out over someone being dressed like someone else. :laughing:

Oh, and Sceep, I don't really care what your cack jewelry is made out of, and to be honest with you, I was very startled when that "electromagnet to rip off your dick" came to my mind. I'm not sure why your penis crossed my mind, but I didn't like it one bit. It's gotta be the shoes! :mad3: That's it, when I get home, those gay shoes are getting locked in the closet, where they belong.

Thrift stores have clothes that weren't designed by fruits and they're cheep! I've been finding old school army fatigues on ebay. They are the perfect pants. Don't support corporate sweatshop labor. I almost puke when I see the walking billboards with logos everywhere. The stockholders make millions but the people that make and sell the clothes are broke. Screw that! The only thing I buy new is underwear and socks. If everyone quit buying homo clothes, homos wouldn't get paid to design them anymore. That shit about the swimming britches was hilarious! One ball out! My wife bought me these tight fitting briefs and ever so often I run out of clean undies and have to wear them. They squeeze everything so hard it hurts by the end of the day and they don't even have a fawking fly. She says "You have to wear them because they were $13 a pair!". We're getting hosed! We must make a stand now before we all have to wear tights everywhere. Diesel's posts kill me!

Hi, my name is Richard, and I wear Wranglers, they are still a bargain price $14.95 at Wal-Mart and will last forever, and if you say otherwise, I can pull you a pair that I've had for over four years that don't look worn or tattered and are worn regularly.

Also, I've finally found shorts that are actually short, about mid-thigh, original price was a whopping $9.97 at the local exchange but now they're on clearance for $2.97 so I own four pairs now.

No more knee-length shorts for me :D

I agree, shopping these days is pretty gay... i normally only bought carhartt pants and plain black or bue t shirts to wear, and of course my CK5 sweat shirt. It turns out i can not wear fox racing shirts, or volcom any more becuase of the mainstreamness, I used to be able to approach a person wearing a Fox racing shirt and ask them what they ride, now however i get confused looks.... So now i buy my cloths online, replace my hartts with black or grey dickies and call it good... My mother is trying to get me to wear these silly button up shirts, so i look more presentable for my family.... so i bought a few shirts like that, and look SUPER gay in them... however... all my relatives are like WOW Chris you Look GREAT!!!.. yea thats cool... fuck all that shit.
Dont coform!!!

great thread i just had to add my little experience becuase everytime my mom offers to take me shopping i must say the word Gay at least 100 times... im just glad that im not the only one that feels this way

[misterfubar]

You might want to consider shopping at a store that carries clothes for "normal" guys, I guess. Like Sears, or something.

X2. Maybe it's a midwest thing and the faggy trends just haven't made it here yet, but normal manly clothes can still be had at all the Dept. stores, Walmart or Target.

I had a girl comment on a pair of jeans I was wearing one night at the bar after work. She said they looked bad ass and broken in and wondered where I got them. I had to explain to her that they were a 10 year old pair of wranglers(the comfortable ones, not the too-tight cowboy ones) that were actually "broken in" from wearing and I probably bought them at Sears and not Hot Topic.

I'm hoping grass and grease stains become popular, I could sell half my wardrobe on Ebay for a mint.

*Edit* Ok, I really need to start noticing that I am replying to 2 year old threads. Oh well, it still applies.

I was going to suggest myspace, but it seems that didn't work out for you. Tom must have been jealous of your broken in jeans.

I may have to combine them into one thread and just do a link. Myspace keeps deleting my profiles, and so far, all of the blog sites I've found either don't allow cursing, or won't allow anything that makes fun of specific races, colors, lifestyles, sexuality, etc. :( I may have to just bite the bullet and pay a host for my website, then make a random section on it for my rants and stories. :(

How about a blog forum? We got a forum for every other fucking thing on Earth.

Sub forums for;
Diezel
Muddin
FG
and of course the HOS!

But no forum for Camerogeans...just to piss him off.

Dude, walmart or target, nuff said.

Not even, those are the two stores that i go to to purchase jeans, I cannot get thim in a simple cut in a normail color, target is worse than walmart but they are still all, browned and fadded or all low rised and torn. Wtf.

I just want to buy some normal blue boot cut jeans. thats it. And t-shirts too. fucking Gay. Being 6'2" And only 205 i am not a "thick" person, i also do not like my clothes to be hanging off of me like a City scum. So a medium or a large shirt fits well in the chest, but is about 5 inches too short. i guess the only people that clothes are designed for are people that are 5'10".

i also hate shopping.

Where is HOS???...haven't seen him around lately.....

that is XL for a Chinaman, though.

That's the truth. I bought a XXL T-shirt when I was in Kyrgyzstan on the local economy, dug it out of the box a few months later when I was home and it's skin tight on me. I normally wear a medium.

Thanks for the laugh and major kudos on the loss.......damn hard for most people to do!!! If you have a Costco near you thier brand of jeans (Kirkland)
have a classic cut (501's, Wrangler, etc.), are reasonably priced, and hold up incredibly well. It's to the point now I won't shop for clothes anywhere but a western store or someplace like Gander Mtn. I'm not a shit kicker or a camo freak but it seems these are about the only places to get clothes that don't belong in a gay pride parade.

I would just like to add that this thread is still true, 2 years later. I just got back in the office, and there was some dude walking down the sidewalk wearing man capris and a shirt that was about 2 sizes too small. I guess he was showing off his love handles. :( :laughing:



I'm glad this thread got topped. Just today I saw a man wearing a shirt that I would wear. :laughing:
It was a lavender color with a deep V-neck and snug. It really looked like a woman's shirt. :laughing:

Did he at least have nice tits? :confused:

[Mudplugga]

no wonder everyone things American's are idiots,

No you're not, we have exactly the same problem here. :mad3:

[HighToy]

no shit. try finding a good pair of jeans that don't look like they've been soaked and ran through hillary clintons snuke factory. I like my jeans to look decent not like some homeless guys jeans I see waiting in the soupline downtown.

[HighToy]

He's not fat anymore and needed new clothes, he had never been to a normal retail store (although I wouldn't call Kohl's high end designer :rolleyes: ) and was immediately cultured shocked.

they sell the same shit clothes at Nordstroms. Anyone who buys jeans from a high end designer needs to be beat over the head and made to wear Dickies the rest of their life.

[Mudplugga]

And who the fuck dreams up the sizes of clothes now?

It sure as hell isn't anyone who can read a ruler :mad3:

The sparky I work with is a skinny, 38 year old rugby winger. And today he was bitching because he had to buy a pair of 36 inch jeans and he thought he was getting fat.
I''m the fat fucker, and I do wear 36" jeans, so I tried his on and there was 8 inches between the button and the hole, seriously - eight fecking inches! :shaking:

[woooody]

try blogspot.com -- they are pretty liberal with language, etc

[Rix86]

Funny shit, that.

I just bought a plain old pair of blue jeans and a pair of black carhart pants last night.
They looked new, too.

[White Shark]

Kohl's is a chick store. My wife shops there, I go to WorkWorld or one of the western stores. Wrangler makes a workwear line called Riggs that look like Dockers, but they are built from heavy ripstop and other indestructible materials. They also make nice heavy duty shirts that look nice. I also buy Browning button front long sleeve shirts which have pockets that expand to hold a handful of 12 ga shells, but still look nice enough to wear when you go out to dinner.

I'm almost embarrassed to say it but I get my jeans at k-mart. Regular jeans and painters pants. Who would have thought that would be a rarity
