I’ve got a business account from a clothing manufacturer that makes very nice, athletic shaped shirts. I spend $4.50-6.00/ shirt and buy 20 at a time. They last me about a year. It’s pretty fucking awesome. If you sign in, as a non business account, it’s like $22/shirt.

You talking about dress/business shirts?
Just talked about this in class. My professor is one of the few on campus who “dresses up”. It’s just khakis, a button down, and a tie. Nothing very fancy. He compares it to casual wear in the 50’s. He said if one of us dressed up like that for class, we’d be stared at and people would wonder “what’s the occasion?”
I actually enjoy dressing up (like he does, not in a tux), but it’s true. No one does and it seems impractical now.

I’m with you there. On Friday nights, I select my wardrobe for the entire next work week and it hangs on the inside of my closet door. That’s as much thought as I want to give to that. Also, lunches for work has been the same thing for 6 or 7 years.
On the other hand, I give ridiculous amounts of brain space to minutiae that interests me.
People who don’t put away their carts when leaving stores…first off, you’re lazy. It’s not hard. Most stores have multiple places to put them away, and secondly, YOU’RE LAZY!

No, I get those from Express. I aways get a 40 off 100 in the mail and buy 3 shirts with it for $68.
Drives me nuts as well. People have no problem blocking sidewalks or leaving them in empty parking stalls up against the wheelstop. It bothers me way more than it should
Like, one single thing? What is it?
Canned tuna, almonds and carrots/tomatoes. It’s filling enough, easy to prepare and I like it well enough. I just don’t like spending any time thinking about it.

I’ve been at CMU for 3 weeks and already have a “usual” at the Au Bon Pain- field green salad with 3 pickled onion, 1 regular onion, 1 roasted pepper, chopped no dressing

My grandma ate cottage cheese and clementines for a midmorning snack daily for the 25-ish years she was a teacher. Never got tired of it and still eats it occasionally.
I could do that with pizza perhaps…not so sure about healthy food, haha.

I guess you could say the world pisses me off. But to be specific, thieves. To be more specific, copper thieves.
I like that we can recycle materials and make new things. I don’t like scrap yards. It encourages the theft of these items. We have people going around town stealing the wiring out of lights and other fixtures. These are lights that illuminate bike paths and other public park areas. I think these people should be shot on sight.
Maybe not lethally, just in both kneecaps and groin (turn them into eunuchs).

I’m wearing tights for the first time this year and they’re making me feel like I’m having diaphragmatic cramps.
I was so happy when I put them on - yay fall! And now I’m suffering in a way I frankly don’t feel I deserve to given the effort I put into keeping my diaphragm in working condition.

AND…Once again, @polo77j saves yet another thread on the interwebz!
Meh. Take pride in your appearance. It’s more important to your mental well-being than you think.
Of course I’m not one to talk. I basically wear a uniform. I wear a black suit (or maybe Navy if feeling daring) every day, with a white shirt, black Allen Edmonds, and whatever Ermenegildo Zegna tie my wife bought — every day.
Great taste 
Well, that’s sure more visually pleasing than pajama pants and crocs. Thank you!
The People of Wal Mart are all I see anymore.
People that walk around in public like they’re in their frickin’ bedroom are a pet peeve of mine.
I instantly profile (deliberate choice of word!) them as lacking discipline, and lacking an understanding of personal pride and self respect -guess that’s kinda what @Jewbacca said, but with my curmudgeony perspective lol.

How high, exactly, do you pull up your tights? Urkle?
