I’ve never heard this term before. It makes perfect sense for what it represents. Sorry it sounds like you speak from experience 😅

Touch it, feel it, try those pants.

I really wish I could have. I never buy clothes that I haven’t already tried on, but I needed something specific for work, and as you’ve already guessed, the line of pants I settled on aren’t listed at any of their local-to-me retailers.

Though, full transparency, I took it a step further to make things worse by ordering the correct size through Amazon, since they’ll come in tomorrow rather than a week from now…

Yeah, I really should’ve been more adamant about it. I was on my break at work and didn’t want to spend the whole time on the phone. I probably could’ve got a manager to cancel it or something. Probably still can. Oh well.

Carhartt.

As soon as I read “Chewy” I knew it was going to be a much more reasonable response. Sorry you had to go through that little reminder, though.

My thoughts exactly! Like if it were one of a hundred orders sitting in a pallet I’d get it. But I’m just imagining a cartoonish situation where the person on the phone is going, “these pants? This order right here? Ahh, yeah, I am physically incapable of not sending it out, but I can put a return label on it for you!”

It’s a pretty wide range, I’m included at 27 and I’ve got a couple friends younger than I am who’d probably get it too.

I’ve got no idea what this is supposed to say or mean 🤷🏾‍♂️

Imagine being a Texan trying to brag about having your own power grid, after dozens of people froze to death because of how shitty that power grid is.
