WAYWT - The Hard Labour Edition aka "Working in your workwear".

Washing machine may work. If you’re still not happy then it should loosen the paint enough that the knife tip would work. But again I’d not worry about it and just wear them. Wabi-sabi and all that.

How much specs of paint @Crit_Obs ? Not one big dunk into a bucket? If the paint wasn’t rubbed into the denim, like neph said, should be able to peel them off. Worse case scenario just designate the pair to paint days.

On a scale from ”lol look at the doofus with dirty pants” to ”that’s like, avantgarde, man”, they score a solid ”slightly awkward law student in altogether too expensive clothes, that he uses also when he really shouldn’t”… which isn’t too far off the mark.

The wash didn’t do them much good and there’s no ”layer” that I could try and pry off. I guess that means I’m a pair of presentable jeans short at the moment... And the 888-OD just released... Hmm...

That made me laugh.

Think of it this way, you have the perfect excuse for new jeans, AND, you’ve gained the greatest pair of beaters ever. It’s win-win.

Make that pic b&w or sepia and it could go in a museum (I mean that in the nicest possible way). Great stuff.

Brilliant. Looks like the pictures my parents have of my great uncles who worked in the Welsh collieries post WWII. Thanks very much.

I had no idea they made collies in Wales.  Not sure what these have to do with steelworker, though.

Interestingly-to me anyway- there are a number of Welsh & Scot names here, Ercildoun, Berwyn,Uwchland, Bryn Mawr.
As for the dogs that's easily explained  they're thrown into ladles to bring up the carbon.

Apparently they make Neanderthals in Arizona and then further decrease their intelligence in Texas. Probably with chemtrails.

Bryn Mawr means «big hill». I just had a Google and the other areas in the township in PN it’s a part of are all named after towns in Wales too, Radnor, Merion and Haverford. I’ve been to the Welsh versions of Haverford and Merion.

That was kinda low, don't you think, neph?  Even I don't dislike Phoenix that much.

Oh, wait.  Yes, I do.

Fascinating.  I did not know that.

Not a bad look @steelworker 

Same thing today. Kinda. I do change the important stuff. Maybe.
