Same. When I'm out running I'll either be chuckling to a podcast or maybe humming/singing along to a song or mimeing a few cymbal hits at crucial moments - it's probably kinda startling to have a big musical man barreling past you but I don't give a shite

It always baffled me that some so-called Marxist-Leninist countries had such a thing against jeans.

Like yeah you can hate Levi and Wrangler for being big western capitalists, but if you can hire Henry Ford to tell you how to make cars quickly, you can copy the idea of durable trousers for manual workers and field engineers.

I've worn jeans for about every proper job (in the Marxian sense) I've worked, only fake jobs for the advancement of cunty nonsense had me dressing like

If you put rivets on the pockets (for carrying heavy objects) and additional belt loops (for hooking more tools) then they apparently cause people to become anti working class, listen to Elvis, and join the CIA, rather than what I expected which is that they'd carry more tools around and scuff their knees less.

Maybe it's that little pocket that does it.

Playground bullies do prosper – and go on to earn more in middle age
Five-decade UK study finds that aggression at school leads to better-paying jobs, while those with emotional instability went on to earn less

Children who displayed aggressive behaviour at school, such as bullying or temper outbursts, are likely to earn more money in middle age, according to a five-decade study that upends the maxim that bullies do not prosper.

They are also more likely to have higher job satisfaction and be in more desirable jobs, say researchers from the Institute for Social and Economic Research at the University of Essex.

The paper, published today, used data about almost 7,000 people born in 1970 whose lives have been tracked by the British Cohort Study. The research team examined data from primary school teachers who assessed the children’s social and emotional skills when they were 10 years old in 1980, and matched it to their lives at the age of 46 in 2016.

etc


explains it - short-rear end brother who was a bully at school is now known as Tory Boy & is pretty wealthy (compared with the rest of the family and almost everyone else I know!).
Tallest brother who, when ordering orange squash or something in a bar, was often challenged in pubs by short-rear end drunks to 'fight' would just say "Sorry, I'm a wimp" and refuse to partake has spent most of his life scraping a living!
