        I'm sure this has been covered here already, but pics of food and scenery in denim-related threads make me want to punch a kitten.

          I'll add to that: short people shouldn't wear anything with heels… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Napoleon_complex

          Deal with it.

                Chris, if you can stand to try to watch 'Stranger than Fiction'. It might change your mind about Will Ferrell.

                    Haha, yes I'll admit there are plenty of imaginary kittens with bloody noses in my fantasies due to some of the recent challenges! Show me some denim!!! 😃

                        I would never ever ever wear my jeans in the tub during a soak or afterwords before they had dried.

                        Think it, be it.

                              I don't feel it's necessary. A piece of jeans lore, like much jeans lore and convention, that is overthinking things IMO. Hot soak if unsanforized, hang dry, wear. This works for me just fine.

                              Think it, be it.

                                It's a rare breed who enjoys the feel of wet denim next to his scrotum, whilst enjoying a long soak in the tub with a good book and a fine tobacco.

                                  I wore my Flat Heads in the tub for their initial soak to ensure I'd be able to get them on again.

                                  It wasn't a pleasurable experience.

                                    A phrase from a product description on self edge comes to mind: "…some initial discomfort is well worth the wearing comfort later" (cited from memory).
                                    I think this hits it quite accurately, I would not describe the feel of wearing my new jeans in the tub as particularly unpleasant, but in any event very much worth the later result.

                                    Keep your jeans on–-and let nothing come in between you and the denim !

                                      Fair enough, but what is the "later result"? My guess is it makes little to no difference, and I wouldn't change a thing about the fit of my Strike Golds and they've certainly molded to my body and activity…

                                      Heh, first link when I googled "wearing jeans in the tub" is Kiya talking about it.

                                            sometimes its horrible to have too many job prospects.

                                            I'm currently being offered one opportunity that I'm interested in, but not overjoyed with. There's another opportunity that I really want, and I'm 95% sure they want me too, but they have to interview one other person. The first company wants me to make a decision ASAP, and the second company needs a bit of time.

                                            My biggest fear is that I end up with nothing because I held out for something I really wanted.

                                            (the first opportunity is a part-time (25-35hr a week) contract job with an international clothing brand that would last at least 4 months, the second opportunity is a full time salaried job with benefits at an ad agency)

                                            it's never just an easy path.
