Definitely turning into a lost art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choffer Posted April 8, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted April 8, 2019 I know I'm going to sound like a grumpy old fart here but these skinny fit shirts do my fruit. Just had a two hour meeting with some young sales person who was wearing one. It looked like he was just about to go full hulk and burst out of the thing. What's the thinking here? I'm so muscle-bound my shirt can't contain me? It just looks like you've got a shirt that's two sizes too small for you. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mottaloo Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 I agree. The suit looks cheap and as if it's about to rip. Also, why are the trousers so short they almost expose your ankles ? If that's the fashion of the day then I'm glad I'm not "with it". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted April 8, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted April 8, 2019 Slim fit/fitted shirts are good. But sounds like the person above was just wearing one that was too small 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But sounds like the person above was just wearing one that was too small I would venture to suggest that he was the problem, not the shirt. I’ve no doubt that on some people, this might be a look they can get away with. On him, it just left me wondering if he had a mirror in his house.

sharkyvilla Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 My arch enemy at work orders baker's whites that are too small for him to show off his muscles. Absolute Representative for Wellingborough. He used to use those artificial sunbed things as well. I'd like to smash his face in with a brick. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 One thing I don't get is single-sex schools. I went to one and it only recently dawned on me what a strange concept they are. I'm surprised they're still a thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the argument used to be that hormonal teenagers concentrated on their studies better if not distracted by the opposite sex. Which begs the question: what about the gay and lesbian ones?

Zatman Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 people that make a big deal out of telling wrestling fans that wrestling is fake. It must be the only entertainment that you get same responses each time People dont have a go at Eastenders fans or Game of Thrones for being fake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which leads me to someone saying he's gay to be moved to a girl school when actually being straight. Which leads me to what actually happened in Sweden in late'70's/early '80's. Up untill then homosexuality was defined as a disease (Always been unsure of the spelling of that word) which lead to loads of gay people calling in sick and stayed home from work. I'm not quite sure how it was then, but in Sweden today if you're home from work being ill you get one day without payment and then 80% for the rest of your absence. Anyway, they did this as a protest and soon it wasn't classed as a disease anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
