However, McQueen said because Le was healthy, with no skin problems or cuts, there was no health concern. Controlling odour was a different concern, Le said, admitting the jeans began to smell after a few months."

That does not sound like vindication to me.

Anyone who has ever stood at a urinal wearing shorts and felt the microscopic pitter patter of ones's own piss rebounding back onto their thighs must surely realize the futility of trying to persevere with the argument that not washing jeans is not fucking rank.

I don't piss in urinals for that very reason...not the jeans, but because you always get splashback. Fucking gross. Plus I like the sound of hitting the deep part of the bowl...icon_gu_b_slayer[1].gif

    "Too much PS, but otherwise great. Did you fix the shirt collar or does it stay like that on its own?"

 

There was some initial fixin' but the collar stays like that once in place.

It's probably personal and I wouldn't make such a massive generalization. I've never smoked and I accept all the health arguments, but on purely aesthetic and sensory grounds, tobacco does have a complex and interesting set of tastes and smells which can work to great effect with some people's perfumes and natural pheremones. Some people, mind you, not everyone.

 


Ok, I will qualify my statement:  I think that most smokers smell bad because a) most smokers in my unsophisticated part of the world smoke cigaretts, and b) I don't like tobacco. 

 

I agree that some fine cigars can give off an somewhat elegant vibe.  But why risk the health issues?

Love the hoodie!  Is it a cashmere hoodie, from that label (don't recall the name) that is famous for cashmere hoodies?

A) wash your jeans.

 

B) the look on your face right there with the daughter. Your paternal instinct is ten times the size of the empire state building, lucky kid :)

 

C) what is that scarf? it looks cool (remember i like gaudy, "ugly" scarves) what is it?

when it comes out of you, unless you have a urinary tract infection. It goes rancid pretty quick. Also, sterile=/=clean.

 

But you can pee on YOUR jeans and not wash them, if you want.
