Hah, when mine look like that after a weekends worth of work I wash them.

Another check is dirt in the creases of your hands and under the fingernails.

I rub my hands on my pants while I’m working and it will take off the surface dirt but not the stuff in the cracks.

The upside of this is that I have several pairs of “work around the house only” jeans that I can now wear in public without reproach!

You can’t fix stupid and fools and their money are easily parted. Another reason socialists will be around for a long, long time.

“- the “elite” gender-fluid freaks and the money-changers could set up shop and plant their suckers onto the jugular veins of the new civilization and start this crap all over again.”

We can ship them out there on the ‘B Ark’.

I read this yesterday and when my husband came home I told him he needed to take off his “expensive” jeans.

My dad had a non-dirty job so his hands were soft and his nails were clean. My uncle was a mechanic and I once asked him why his fingernails were dirty, I got in trouble for being rude.

My husband OTOH, has sandpaper hands with scars on top of scars.

I never kept my old “diggers”. I threw away a fortune!

[Axenolith]

Holy crap! We’re rich!!!

[Trillian]

I’ve seen some jeans in this household look like that before I put them in the wash.

[ArcadeQuarters]

Even better than $200 ripped jeans. Hey maybe they could sell jeans that are both ripped and dirty for $600.

[Trillian]

Many of our clients find pants confining so we offer a range of alternatives for the ample gentleman.
Ponchos, muumuus, capes, jumpsuits, unisheets, muslin body rolls, academic and judicial robes.
I don't wanna look like a weirdo. I'll just go with a muumuu.

[sphinx]

$425? I’d sell my old pair for $300. Nordstrom is a shameless profiteer.

[Right Wing Assault]

The "look" will be, white shirt with sport coat, fake muddy pants, and highly polished, very clean Manolo Blahnik boots. They will wear make-up with fake muddy smears on their face.

The message, of course, is, "I am fake and proud of it."

I've got numerous denims that don't fit anymore, and I can't throw them out (of course), but the wear patterns are no where near the "distressed" clothes they sell.

I laugh when I see people wearing them with the butt all bleached out. That's the only part of mine that is not worn. When I work, I don't sit.

my dad also was a pencil pusher. wouldn’t know the business end of a hammer. working with one’s hands is a lost art.

[Bikkuri]
