Other options are available, Rob.

What do you wear when you don't wear jeans?

Does your entire knowledge of England come from reading PG Wodehouse by any chance?

Britches

I wear anything but jeans. khakis, cotton slacks, wool slacks, shorts, cargo pants, etc. I am waiting till regular jeasn are back and affordable.

gmku 04.03.2008 04:06 PM

Levis Preshrunk 501s. Dark denim, undistressed. Around 30 bucks at JCPenney.

Just sayin'...

hell no. i spent 6 months in an israeli kibbutz where the bulk of volunteer workers was from england.

we often held dialogues such as this:

"why can't you do that"

"that's just not done"

"yes, but why? what's the reason?"

"cos it's not done"

"yes, but-- why do you think that is?"

"because it's not done"

--
everybody seemed to be perfectly programmed to fit with the rest.

You're basing your knowledge of the English on the kind of twats who go to work on a Kibbutz!

Jeeves & Wooster would be preferable.

guess so. there were dozens of them. lots of working class kids.

but anyway even here, you see the english acting like a cohesive group and the americans in perpetual disarray.

Plus they have this irritating habit of adding "u" to words like "favorite" and "neighbor."

I think that the English only act as a group outside of England. It's our inherent xenophobia. We want to go and live in other countries but hate foreigners, so stick together.

gmku 04.03.2008 04:24 PM

What's "fear of jeans"? Denophobia?

Okay, let's agree to drop the to wear/not to wear debate for the sake of the health of this thread.

They were originally spelt like that! You idiots took the u away because you found it difficult to spell.

No, because we found your spelling inefficient and wasteful. Silly Brit.

Lurker 04.03.2008 04:49 PM

Language isn't about efficiency. If it's about that then lets just get rid of vowels altogether, it's been done before.

That would be pronounced differently.

Aluminium yes, but that is pronounced differently anyway. Poseur is not a word.

Rob Instigator 04.03.2008 05:06 PM

we (americans) changed the spelling for the same reason we started to drive on the RIGHT side of the road. IN SPITE OF THE BRITISH!

hell fuck yeah. Now most of the world drives on the right side except for those sad sack ex-brit colonies that still like to take their lorry for a spin opn the left side of the road.

yeah but for the same reason you have to admit it's kinda retarded to stick with archaic english measurements like inches, yards, miles, gallons, pints and other such crap. i miss the metric system. vive la révolution!

gmku 04.03.2008 05:55 PM

May I remind everyone that the purpose of the thread is to talk about your favorite jeans?

my favorite jeans are comfortable.

there.

gmku 04.03.2008 06:33 PM

Finally. Sheesh...

Lurker 04.03.2008 06:34 PM

My favourite jeans have a hole in the crotch.

gmku 04.03.2008 06:43 PM

Convenient.

I think when this picture was made they were still using the "tube down inner thigh" method of waste disposal.

Lurker 04.03.2008 07:01 PM

I hate stressed jeans. Why can't you get unstressed jeans!?

!@#$%! 04.03.2008 07:01 PM

i see...

Lurker 04.03.2008 07:03 PM

See that green thing on his left leg? That's where the tube comes out at a 135 degree angle so it lands sufficiently far from the body.

!@#$%! 04.03.2008 07:08 PM

it's a brilliant design. you can evacuate while running, which is the classic flight response.

Lurker 04.03.2008 07:12 PM

And you're a leaving a pre-made deterrent in your wake! Now that's resourceful!
