Chip and Alex make a lovely couple. Wish them a long and happy life.

What type of man would wear a onesie?

The kickstarter had a goal of $10,000. It already has over $300,000 pledged.

I am starting to build my spaceship. Time for me to leave this planet. :03:

When will the spaceship be ready and how much is a seat on it Platapus?.

Now, When I weld, I wear a jumpsuit, as it covers all the exposed skin areas, and has lots of cool pockets (including two that are supposed to give you access to your pants pockets on the inside, but I always forget this, think they are regular pockets, and drop my phone down my pant leg.)

Also in my cold weather / mountain climbing days, a onesie thermal underwear makes a lot of sense, less drafts and cold spots.

I also wear one piece full coverage suits when scuba diving.

That's what I was thinking when I read the title. I haven't yet, but will probably one day wear my jumpsuit with just boxers on underneath.

But this.... this is not right. I can see it being comfortable, and practical I guess. And that's usually all the criteria I need for usage. Maybe if they weren't styled after the wrapping paper for a 6 year old's birthday gift, then maybe I could see it living.

But man, that's a lot of work to poop. I don't want to work anymore than I have to to poop.

Earth was a mistake.

Is this an example of 'intelligent design'?...

Are we talking warp or hyperdrive? I hear hyperdrive propulsion can be annoying, because of the limited jump routes while warp drive on the other hand can go anywhere but takes longer overall.. And more importantly, are redshirts mandatory aboard your vessel?? :hmmm:

Snowflakes will look stylish in these as they march into our awaiting volley, the mainstream media will tell them so. :up:

Years ago I would have had a blast ridiculing this, but I guess I'm getting mellow. And older. :haha:

The scary part? Who knows, in 10 years this may be accepted and commonplace.

Nordstrom Sells Jeans Covered in Fake Mud for $425



Quote:

While distressed jeans with holes and tears have been around for years, Nordstrom has taken the idea further with pre-muddied jeans for $425.
"Heavily distressed medium-blue denim jeans in a comfortable straight-leg fit embody rugged, Americana workwear that's seen some hard-working action with a crackled, caked-on muddy coating that shows you're not afraid to get down and dirty," reads the description on Nordstrom's website.
The pants quickly drew criticism online as people took aim at the concept as well as the hefty price tag. People also questioned who would buy type of product.

By the way, they are currently sold out. But check out that site for more... unique pants for "men".


Mike Rowe from Dirty Jobs had a few choice words about the item.
“The Barracuda Straight Leg Jeans aren’t pants,” Rowe said on Facebook. “They’re not even fashion. They’re a costume for wealthy people who see work as ironic — not iconic.”


I just don't get it.

Whatever happened to buying a pair of jeans for $15 and getting them muddy yourself? Of course they don't stay that way after you wash them.

Or is the "crackled, caked-on muddied coating" somehow permanent?

Yep you can sell a wheelbarrow of dung for $200 and say take a bath in it and the ladies be all over you for non stop sex and you can bet some plonker will buy it. :03:
