winch!

I've discovered a new and frustrating facet to jeans-shopping.

I mean, it's hard enough to find a comfortable pair of jeans that fit just right, most folks have trouble with that. But the last pair I bought were my first-ever button fly jeans, which I've worn down. And let me tell you, I don't ever want to go back to zipper fly. Never. Why?

Because it is so, so much easier and more convenient to rearrange myself with a zipper fly. No, seriously, with a button fly, all I need is less than a quarter of a second to just go "winch!" God, it's been marvelous.

But now try finding a really comfortable, good-fitting pair of jeans with button flys. It's frickin' impossible. The only button fly jeans I've found so far are all uncomfortable and/or covered with stupid designs or pre-frayed and/or just frickin' expensive.

The new jeans I have are super comfortable, but still... when my balls get in a bunch, I don't wanna have to unzip in public, however quickly. Sigh.



And here's something that everybody can enjoy. Hey, Mr. T, what's that you got there?

That's what pockets are for. Nice, loose pockets.

Unfortunately, my pockets are usually filled with stuff. I don't wanna have to wade through my keys and risk poking myself in a most unfomfortable place. But then, it might be doable if the jeans I like to wear weren't the tighter boot-cut style.

SO glad to be a lady right now.
Also, Mister T is a genius.

It's most inconvenient. It really is.

Mr. T AND Neal Adams! Can you imagine what those Green Lantern/Green Arrow issues would have been like?

"America is a good country, a beautitful country, and terribly sick! And what are you doing, taking orders from those little blue fascists! Brother, you are a tool!"

"Shut yo jibba-jabba, foo'! You the too', foo'! Stay in milk! Don't take drugs! Drink your school!"

hahaha!

Anyway, try levi's. I know they have button fly stuff. At least they used to. They can be expensive, but they last for-freakin-ever. I've had one pair for like, over 6 years and the only reason I occasionally can't wear them is my own size fluctuations. But they seriously look like I just bought them.

It may be worth the investment, then, though I am poor and cheap. And we'll see if they do last, since when I find a good pair, I wear it pretty much every single day until it falls apart. The very top of my inner thigh is usually the first to go.

Oh dude, me too. About being poor and cheap and wearing jeans til they die and having them die mostly in the inner thigh region. Stupid seams.

But yeah, I just bought a pair of Levi's for really cheap and they are glorious. They're the perfect length, even, which is my big challenge. I got them for $10 because they had an imperfection, so look for imperfection pants. My imperfection is just a thing with the inside pockets, which doesn't bother me at all, so you might be able to find cheap stuff that just has random oddities.

Is that his crack baby? Is he gonna eat the crack baby? Is he gonna hang the crack baby on a chain and wear it as BLING?

I love how it has nothing to do with jeans. So very Hefnerian.

I have trouble buying jeans period. I have these huge thighs. Like the mother from "Duckman"

Here's a little TMI jeans info in return: If you were a girl, there'd be the added prospect of finding jeans that where the seam up the middle - when you sit in just such a way - gently massages a very special cluster of nerve endings.

This is why so many women now dress like they work on farms. So if you see a woman in jeans who's sitting and smiling for no reason, especially if she's hunched over just a little bit, say 'I like your jeans!' and you'll instantly have something in common.

Ahh... erm... really, now? Why have I never heard of such a thing? Weiiird.

I was wearing jeans the other day - which is unusual for me - and it occurred to me that we perhaps had not yet released this piece of information out to our male bretheren.

It's not much. You'll just be at your desk, bending over to pick up a dropped pencil, and suddenly think "Oh, hello. Yes, planet Earth, I love you too (now if you don't mind, I have spreedsheets to work on)."
