… ??? ::)

Just to be clear: I do not think this is something to smirk about. It is a travesty and a tragedy.

Even if this story is fake, it's still really creepy and interesting.

Saw that earlier — man that's some sad shit. So young.

I feel for his young family, and hope they allow his teams to carry out his legacy.

He did things the way he wanted, and he will always be a winner in my book for that reason.

I'm not really a haute fashion or streetwear (and certainly not a Kanye or Louis Vuitton) kind of a fella but even I know who Virgil Abloh was and respect what he did.

His passing is a monumental event and I think a surprise. RIP and kudos for making a mark in the world in your 41 years.

Not content to give up and sell yet, I've purchased two pair of long underwear to wear underneath those much hyped jeans that I think are itchy and do not like. That ought to help unless I think the long johns are itchy too. I think part of the problem is everything feels like shit on your legs compared to IH 21oz denim, and I live in my 822. I don't even like the feel of 25XHS compared to the 21oz on my legs… They are supremely comfortable.

I was alarmed when Amazon suggests what size I should buy compared the what I've bought in the past and what others have bought in the long johns. The other sizes were greyed out. Big Brother is watching.

I've just realised today is my forum anniversary, so I wanted to express my appreciation for this place.  I really didn't expect to get involved so much when I signed up.  Thank you everyone for making me welcome and gently leading me astray

Congratulations! Thoroughly enjoy having you here, although I’m not sure how much responsibilty we can bare for impressive antique tankard purchases. If I were you I’d take all the honour for that myself.

Thanks @neph93.  The silver thing was an interest/weakness/drain on my bank account long before IH, but this particular purchase might have been influenced by a certain someone!

Just finished the last of three papers I’ve written in the last three weeks for a university course. Done for this term.

Cheers folks…

Congrats Reuben!  Completing a project feels so damn good.

Thank you, it really does. Been such a long time since I've done this kind of thing and it has been taxing, but very rewarding.

@neph93 Congratulations!  The rewards will be worth it…now, enjoy the well deserved beer, two, or maybe three...

[ARNC]

Congratulations @neph93.  I couldn't imaging going back to serious study now.  @goosehd has slightly beaten me to it, but there is definitely a case to be made for celebrating each paper individually!

[neph93]

Here’s beer number two. It’s strong enough that I’ll be dodging beer number three. It is a school night after all…

Given the details of our conversation on Saturday evening, your version of serious study and mine probably differ somewhat. But thank you!

[ARNC]

I’m sure it’s harder to get back to it once you’ve stepped off the academic treadmill and can pass as a responsible adult!
