( Bartleby A dead man on vacation, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:10, 9 replies, latest was 15 years ago)

arseless chaps

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:11, Reply)

Gah!
I was just about to put that.
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:12, Reply)

I thought all chaps are arseless
Else they're called 'trousers'.
( Labia Majora You keep on talking but it makes no sense at all, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:12, Reply)

not quite as funny if you leave off the arseless bit

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:15, Reply)

Cowboy bender pants?

( Labia Majora You keep on talking but it makes no sense at all, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:17, Reply)

is how they will be known from now on

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:18, Reply)

Some of the guys are a bit areseless

( Bartleby A dead man on vacation, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:17, Reply)

Your boss' daughter or son as a feed bag

( Labia Majora You keep on talking but it makes no sense at all, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:12, Reply)

A great big 80's power suit
with big ol' shoulder pads! Its just screams 'I'M TOTALLY BRILLZO'
(Flim-Flam the Magnificent "You is talking loco and I like it!", Tue 25 May 2010, 15:12, Reply)

I've got one, but the moths have been at it.
It screams of WINO, more than anything else.
( Bartleby A dead man on vacation, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:18, Reply)

Gimp mask.

(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:12, Reply)

bit difficult to make eye contact.
and terribly sweaty in this weather.
( Bartleby A dead man on vacation, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:19, Reply)

A dark grey suit with a white shirt and pink tie.

( girlinthehole, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:12, Reply)

only gays and the welsh wear pink
(yes chompy, I'm homophobic and racist)
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:13, Reply)

Only real men wear pink.

(PsychoChomp, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:16, Reply)

is that because real man have no idea about what looks good?

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:17, Reply)

Only hetero guys who are confidant with their sexuality wear pink.
See above.
( girlinthehole, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:17, Reply)

pink doesn't look good
that's the main issue I have with it
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:17, Reply)

Then you haven't tried the right shade of pink.

( girlinthehole, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:18, Reply)

you know what shades of pink look good?
the ones that are red or white
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:19, Reply)

Pink doesn't really look good on anybody

( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:18, Reply)

I knew I could count on you

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:20, Reply)

If only I still had my extra toes
You could have counted further
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:20, Reply)

I beg to differ.
I look good in pink......surprisingly.
( girlinthehole, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:20, Reply)

*sings*
"Prettyyyyy in piiiinnnnkkkk. Isn't she pretty in pink....."
(Tugnut Ex of this parish, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:25, Reply)

*squeezes brain*
Nope can't remember! who sang it?
( girlinthehole, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:26, Reply)

The Psychedelic Furs.
Edit - I was about to add that it was used in a crap 80s film but couldn't remember the name of it. After googling I have discovered that the film is "Pretty in Pink." which is rather obvious.
(Tugnut Ex of this parish, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:34, Reply)

I knew it had an F in it somewhere.

( girlinthehole, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:49, Reply)

^ this
although i'll allow my daughter to get away with it. she's 7.
(beanojam isn't really Ricardo Flange, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:21, Reply)

No!
Don't encourage it.
She'll grow up loving it and even buying pink tape measures and hammers.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:22, Reply)

Khaki and pink looks fantastic.
I used to wear khaki combats and pink t-shirts, but dark pink and not pale pink.
( girlinthehole, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:24, Reply)

Oh good god no
My auntie gave me a hoodie in those colours.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:26, Reply)

Did you watch timewarp wives last night.
It was about couples living and dressing in the forties and fifties.
( girlinthehole, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:28, Reply)

Ooh no but I've seen one of those before :)

( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:29, Reply)

They looked awesome.

( girlinthehole, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:31, Reply)

I'd love to live like that

( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:33, Reply)

I thought you might : )

( girlinthehole, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:36, Reply)

well we don't drastically
her mum and I generally hunt for clothes that aren't that colour. but when you're buying stuff for small girls, finding nice things that aren't pink can be a struggle!

i think we have it under control for the moment.
(beanojam isn't really Ricardo Flange, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:30, Reply)

I approve

( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:30, Reply)

marvellous!

(beanojam isn't really Ricardo Flange, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:33, Reply)

Looking around my office, three guys are wearing pink shirts
All of them are bellends.
Science doesn't lie.
( Labia Majora You keep on talking but it makes no sense at all, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:18, Reply)

Pink is essential; I have many pink shirts and I am awesome

Denying pink as a good colour is the same as that boy at school overly protesting that he wasn't gay only to be caught noshing off a Tory MP on his 18th birthday on Hampstead Heath.

Your scared of the envitability that your fear of pink will lead you to suck off William Hague.
( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:32, Reply)

Pink is a double bluff.
The wearers are in Narnia.

Dress and talk like a pirate.

(Tugnut Ex of this parish, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:18, Reply)

I sort of do already
except for the parrot, crutch, hat, wild hair, etc, etc.

I do feel like a pirate, at any rate.
( Bartleby A dead man on vacation, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:22, Reply)

Bring a sword and mention 'booty'.

(Tugnut Ex of this parish, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:39, Reply)

I'll borrow one of Monty's

( Bartleby A dead man on vacation, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:44, Reply)

Don't touch his pink one.

(Tugnut Ex of this parish, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:53, Reply)

Noted.

Brown corduroy

I initially thought, there's no way that's the correct spelling. But it is.
( whenanimalsattackhumans clad in global hypercolour, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:18, Reply)

don't diss brown corduroy

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:19, Reply)

Brown corduroy
Is boring and shit.
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:20, Reply)

would you accept brown corduroy flares as acceptable work attire in a fairly casual office?

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:21, Reply)

No.
Corduroy is for old people. If you're old, then that's fine.
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:25, Reply)

bugger

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:30, Reply)

Flares are never acceptable unless live in the 60's or are a 14 year old girl.

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:33, Reply)

I look good in flares.
Skinny jeans make my legs look like tiny little pins.
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:33, Reply)

don't be ridiculous
I look like a fucking spastic with straight trousers, as do a lot of people

bootcut is for women, so flares are the only option.
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:35, Reply)

Skinny jeans are what you want, everyone looks good in those
Seriously though I suspect you've never found a decent pair of trousers to fit you if you think all straight legs look spastic.
( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:42, Reply)

I've been buying and wearing trousers for some time believe it or not
I wear straight trousers with a suit, which is fine

but when talking about jeans it is definitely better to have some bagginess over the shoe region.

I'm not talking massive volcano looking flares by any means. They don't have extra triangles of cloth sewn in or anything.
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:44, Reply)

fat legs in skinny jeans look like carrots

( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Tue 25 May 2010, 16:09, Reply)

Not if it looks like you're wearing volcanoes for trousers

( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:23, Reply)

they're not that flared :-P

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:24, Reply)

This is the only acceptable use of brown corduroy trousers.

(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:24, Reply)

I'm not dissing!
I think it would be wonderful to wear an all-in-one brown corduroy garment to a review.
( whenanimalsattackhumans clad in global hypercolour, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:20, Reply)

I'm wearing black corduroy trousers
Yeeaaahhhh
( Labia Majora You keep on talking but it makes no sense at all, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:22, Reply)

Only Marcus Brigstocke can wear this and get away with it

( Bartleby A dead man on vacation, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:26, Reply)

Morph suit!

(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:19, Reply)

Morph into what?

( Bartleby A dead man on vacation, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:25, Reply)

www.morphsuits.com/
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:26, Reply)

I like the idea,
but my bollocks would be too prominent.
( Bartleby A dead man on vacation, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:29, Reply)

Nah, they wouldn't
You really can't tell that much.

Or, wear a normal suit with one of these underneath.
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:31, Reply)

Depending on who is reviewing you
that could be beneficial!
(Flim-Flam the Magnificent "You is talking loco and I like it!", Tue 25 May 2010, 15:31, Reply)

I've seen a couple of people wearing those around town.
The people that wear them are without exception, cunts.

Morphsuits are ace,
You're just OLD and BORING

You're just a FIRST year STUDENT
even you'll hate them when you get to the third year.

First day of the second year I suppose.

(PsychoChomp, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:34, Reply)

Nope.
I do intend to retain my sense of humour throughout uni.
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:37, Reply)

it will be a student sense of humour though
not worth having.

novelty things are generally not amusing
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 25 May 2010, 15:39, Reply)

Trust me on this,
I'm correct.
