Alternatively spray heavily with Pam or dip in olive oil then place in oven at 450F for an hour

I just love these threads. Let's see, what could I come up with. How can I stop my pants from getting wrinkled? How do I keep my socks up? How many buttons should I have on my shirt?

However he did post that Timex watch fit pic and also recently impressed Jet by branching out from JCrew and into some thrifted LL Bean and Lands End steeze.

Some dumb threads are insightful. A while ago someone asked how to put on his monk shoes! All laughter ofcourse, but he made a remark about the elastic buckles. Seems you can put on a monk shoe without a unfastening the buckles, which is why a few sellers call them monks/loafers.

Then you can either dip the jeans straight into the kettle of wax or pour the wax into your kitchen sink and then put the jeans in. Wait til wax hardens. Chip the jeans out of the wax, and wear!

I'm scared he actually went off to try that.
