Yea, we ran in them, went swimming in them, hung around shooting the shit, and slept in them. They would get wet and be dry in about 10 min. I have issued pairs that are khaki and I bought some after market tiger stripe because I thought they were cool looking. They are tight, but that is how they are cut. Guess some people just don't get it.

My poncho. I've been wearing it for about twenty years now. I've had picnics on it, used it as a car blanket, hid under downpours and wore pajama bottoms under it in the emergency room. It's my equivalent of Linus' blanket and I'll probably drag it around until it disintegrates.

I had a pair of black Aspens (ones that have no holes at all) that I used to wear at my last regular job. I'll probably buy another pair, since my current boss is not keen on me wearing the green ones. Great conversation pieces, though.

Merc- I understand about the shorter shorts thing but damn, looking at the picture that wouldn't even go a quarter down the thigh.

My athletic shorts are usually in-between halfway up thigh to knees. My regular shorts go down a little past my knees.

I never really saw the problem with shorts that don't go past the knee. I find them more comfortable if I work out.

dude. have you SEEN reno 911?

Hey, he looks very comfortable!

Aliantha · 04-03-2007, 01:58 AM

I got told today that I need to dress more conservatively for work. No more jeans and spagetti straps.

So I went and bought a couple of pairs of black slacks and some button down the front shirts on the way home.

How depressing.

I am wearing knock-off black crocs today. But they have a real Crocs shoe charm stuck in them (picked it up at the nursery fair I went to last week)

These aren't quite as comfy as my real red ones - well, before I wore them to death and split the bottom - but they are comfier than any other shoes in my wardrobe.

OMG I've just looked up shoe charms on ebay. That's my morning gone then...

DucksNuts · 04-03-2007, 04:56 AM

Really Alli??? Should come work with me!

I had to work the trade show Friday/Saturday and got sent home Friday to put on something more appropriate...

Boss..."jesus, you cant go dressed like THAT!!"

Me..."wha? whats wrong with this?"

Boss..."duck home and put on something more....I dunno...more bimboish".

I didnt think blue was appealing, especially when its skin colour.

Yea, that show is pretty funny sometimes, mostly I find they are trying a bit to hard to be funny.

This is a bit more typical of a deployment relaxation period:

I have clothes I wear (and probably shouldn't) that are almost as old as you. Sweatshirts mostly.

Oh sure, I have clothes that are way older -- sweaters that come out a few times every year, a few dressy blouses that hide in the back of the closet -- just nothing that I've worn quite so often, year-round, for so long.

Hime · 04-03-2007, 09:05 AM

Also, Merc, you are totally my new best friend for posting that picture! *treasures it forever*

And I've never had crocs, but I had a pair of knock-off Ugg boots -- I felt like an idiot wearing them, but they were so warm and comfy in the winter!
