All my jeans are 46x40. i'm down to 38-40x40 Good luck finding either. Even worse, i wear LT shirts now. When i was fat i could just buy 3xl and they would be fine, but regular large shirts come to my belly button so i have to get special t-shirts now too

Quite A Tool posted:Also the whole no washing thing is mad gross. Seriously. The whole "don't wash your jeans!!!" thing is ridiculous, sorry, they reek, you smell like a hobo. "Raw denim" is not magical and will not mysteriously not smell like rear end when you don't wash it. ... unless you, like, never wear the drat things or never actually do anything other than sit there when wearing them. Sorry, I am too active for that nonsense, pants are meant to be worn, used, and washed, otherwise I would put them on a statue and wear something else. I don't understand how anyone can take the raw denim schtick seriously.

Levis come in every size imaginable, and are like $40-50. Also, just go long and have them hemmed, it costs like $8, or roll up the cuff. I got my last pair of stf 501s in 32x36, had the cuffs turned up and wore a belt for awhile, then washed them and now they are good fitting normal jeans. Previously got 30x36 and I don't think they will fit if I wash them (so I don't wear them anymore because I'm not disgusting). I get annoyed when I go into rei or something and all they have are pants in 30 and 32" inseams. I even asked the girl in there last time "hey, do you have any pants that fit me?" and her answer was for me to try the website. Like, a 32x34 is too hard for you to stock? jamal fucked around with this message at 09:11 on Mar 16, 2015 |

For the folks talking about the no wash stuff... I believe the denim heads put them in the freezer which kills the worst of the smell causing bacteria. Of course that doesn't take care of any dirt.

I'm still running their kickstarter version because the retail is too drat expensive. I played a fair bit of UAZ 4x4 Offroad Simulator on Android. Bought the paid version and it disappeared a few weeks later when the sequel was released. I'm still pissed about that. The game updated to the ad laden version of the first one when the sequel was released. I installed the ad laden sequel but haven't really tried it yet. Spent ages grinding to buy the Niva and upgrade it too.

Just noticed my PC clock is an hour fast. Was wondering how the hell time went by so fast tonight. I guess by rolling it back to a bit over a week ago, it also decided "DST is for losers".  Has anyone had issues with random parts of their music collection disappearing from Google Play Music? I have about 19k songs uploaded, but when using the Android app, about half don't show up (and yes, I did turn off the explicit filter). It all shows up in the web version. It's a bit annoying, as I'm constantly streaming music in the car. I can find specific songs if I search for them, but entire albums don't show up unless I know song titles (and I have to search for each track by name, I can't pull up the album itself). This issue has existed across 3 Android installs on my phone, and also exists on my tablet, so it's definitely not anything on the phone itself. I've had Plex on my desktop + phone forever, so I'm just streaming from home for now, but Plex doesn't handle Bluetooth disconnects/reconnects as gracefully as Google Play Music. Plus the whole "leave the PC on" bit. randomidiot fucked around with this message at 08:26 on Mar 16, 2015 |

So what I thought was just over exertion is probably... not that. Just checked and I'm running a fever if nearly 101.  guess that explains the neck stiffness and imbalance. Took some nyquil and a couple aspirin, hopefully that knocks me out good. If I don't feel better in the morning I'll probably have to skip classes for a day or two. gently caress being sick.

Goddamnit. Something is lagging the (household gigabit) LAN so badly that I can't even watch TV, and can barely pull up web pages, and my antivius and firewall are both going apeshit over incoming "attacks". A quick glance at the switch told me what's going on - the port stepdad's laptop is plugged into is lit solid. Unplugging that port brings me to 75mbit on speed tests instead of 0.02bit. Last time I fixed his computer, I told him it was the last time I would ever touch it. You can't fix stupid <tm>.

I'm fine now thanks, you don't want what I had. Vomiting and diarrhoea bug that's going round the house, I've had it worse that anyone else, hence the delirium. Wife thought finding the tablet open to naked ginger chicks was funny though.

Of course that doesn't take care of any dirt. The whole "washing them wears out the fabric" is such bull, anyway. Sure, you shouldn't wash them every day, but by never washing them, dirt builds up in the fabric and causes wear by abrasion. So they'll actually last longer with semi-regular washes.

You don't wash them because is takes dye away from the pants each time. And they don't really get smelly. Even my work pants that I soak once a month never smell like anything besides sheetrock dust. Oh yeah and to wash them I soak them in the tub and then hang dry them. Good stuff.

Jesus Christ! Fix his pc using a baseball bat or a gun, and keep doing it to every computer he touches (or do what i did to my grandpa, put him under parental control in windows, you can block a lot of things, and if he fucks it up again, i already gave you a plan). Other news: I am re-installing windows XP on some private laptop for a secretary at my school.. Didn't get the password, and have to install xp on it and the sticker on it is for win vista.. Have to hook it up to a lan port and gently caress around in linux to get the key out of a loving old pc, won't take any money for it, but at least i get to be pals with her (can get a master-key for the school and have access to the giant-computer-and-computer-equipment-closet). Jeans-talk: i wear jeans for 3-5 days depending on how dirty they are, and my jeans last pretty long if i don't drop some battery acid on them (happened once).

Sounds like your mistake was treating him like an adult who gets to make his own decisions. If you do decide to touch it again, lock that poo poo down tight. There are a few free Deepfreeze alternatives that will let you lock the system down from changes; whether you give him a thawspace for documents is at your discretion.

I'm sure this is only like a "windshield" view and not an in-cab view but this is still way better than "over the left shoulder" outside the vehicle view. General_Failure posted:Goddamnit. I'm still running their kickstarter version because the retail is too drat expensive. The upside of running the pre-release alpha is that you can use mods. There were a lot of user content vehicles coming out for spin tires at one point before the retail version came out. The retail version doesn't support mods  but it does support multiplayer which is awesome in its own right.

I put in about 1300 sqft (120 m2) in wood flooring in my house about 9 years ago. If you have someone that can make your cuts, it's not a bad job to do. But I only had help for about 1/3 of it. On another home improvement note, Benjamin Moore paint is the absolute BOMB. Expensive at 70 bucks a gallon, but so so worth it. (another note: is BOMB still okay to say or am I showing my age? What do the cool kids say?)

I went to the store with the tape that had the chunks of paint and they matched it perfectly.
