To the OP. I think when people walk by you and flex all the time that is a tell-tale sign that you are no longer skinny.
To think, I still have 15-20 pounds to gain.

Don’t sell yourself short.
Get a second job, then you can afford one for the night.

I like this measurement best.
Also, Irish Muscle, I definitely know what you’re talking about. As long as you exaggerated some in your post

I like this answer.
This is actually my current goal. I figure I’ll reach it somewhere between 225-240 lbs.

True. Little kids will let you know exactly where you stand. One of my son’s classmates hits the most muscular pose and grunts “Hulk!” when I drop my son off. Me and his teacher just laugh.

Ahah. thats funny. I had a bouncer at a club tell me that he couldn’t let me in because he wouldn’t be able to stop me if I started trouble. I talked him into it though.

That’s awesome, just another perk of getting big…

Well, that’s better than getting stood next to by the HUGE bouncer for no reason other than I was dressed a bit differently than the other pople in the club. I had on jeans and a t-shirt instead of a polo or sleeved shirt.
It’s not like I even looked like I was looking for trouble. I went in with my friends, got a beer, and sat at a table. But I guess the big guy felt I was a threat and stood right behind me the whole time, instead of worrying about the other dudes that were acting a drunk ass on the dance floor. And it wasn’t my imagination, because two of the friends I went with asked me why the guy was behind me. “I don’t know” I said. What was funny was that the bouncer was about 6’2" and at least 250-260. Dressed in black made him even more intimidating. I mean, he dwarfed me.

I had a guy walk up to me and offer me a job as a bouncer.

Lol!
I do partially agree, but most dudes on the getting huge path never actually believe they are big enough.
I guess it’s all relative. To some super feather weights I probably look big. And some dude who looks big to me probably looks small in Ronnie Coleman’s eyes.

We all deal with this. I realized I wasn’t skinny when I was at a bar and saw some guy that looked like he worked out. He had some noticeable muscular development.
I then realized my should were wider than his. I’m 5’7" and he as 6". I think I was about 185 then. I’m about 205 now and most regular people think I’m big.
Sometimes you just need to realize it.
People don’t describe me as skinny anymore… but I’ve never been called “big”. Being my height, I doubt I will unless I hit 200, which ain’t in the near future.

IOW, you were dressed like white trash in a yuppie scum bar. What did you expect them to think? The way you dress controls the way people treat you. If you look out of place, you’re be watched.

Well, white trash was far from what I looked like. It was a club in a casio we were visiting. It was a spur of the moment decision to go to the club, but I said “sure”. And I am mindful of required attire for social clubs, so I did ask the doorman if there was anything wrong with the way I was dressed (I was/am self consicous of my apperance in public) and he said “No. We don’t allow hats, however.” That was fine, since I wasn’t wearing a hat. And we walked in.
But thanks for playing.
Even if my mom tells me not to get “too big” but in my mind, i see Prof X laughing at my scrawny ass.
