Pet Peeve parents who take their kids to the parks in pajamas

To cargo, or not to cargo - that is the question.

I rock cargos like no other. Just sayin'


But seriously, this thread is pretty entertaining to say the least. I think it's good we've got senses of humors on here!

Oh, no no no..this one definitely needs an explanation. What specifications dictate "a good body"?

I'm guessing not pointy or scoopy, so you're probably out

What's funny about the two of you, is that I have made two judgments:

1) Adults shouldn't wear pajamas out in public.
2) People with good bodies look good in almost anything.

The rest is in your minds.

Judgemental and bodyshaming in 1 post.
Not in my mind. In your text.

Again, if the bar is so low that one is "judgemental" for believing adults shouldn't go out in public in pajamas guilty than I am guilty charged.
People with good bodies do look good in almost anything.

Again, how does one define a "good body"?

They need that many pockets because their wives are tired of them asking to put their things in their purses... They should invest in hip sacks instead, lol

Conversely, they become the bag that doesn't need to go through bag check or ride storage and are filled with phones, chargers, and some times even water bottles. They should be renamed shorts of holding. ThinkGeek could make a killing.

Ill admit, almost every pair of shorts I wear are cargo shorts. I have worn them since middle school. I generally just like the fit better, but on vacation they are a life saver. Dont need bags for trinkets and I put my wallet and phone in the pockets that button up so they dont fall out on a ride or so someone has a harder time pick pocketing me. Which when I was in New Orleans seemed like all of the time. Plus its nice to have the pocket space when my wife gets tired of carrying the stuff in her jeans...... Plus I work in IT, my old job let me wear cargo shorts which made carrying tools super easy. But my new job, I have to wear pants. So I bought Cargo pants.

Wallet in the front left, phone in the front right. Anything more than that and you're carrying too much stuff.

Or nothing at all, amirite?

*Looks it mirror.*

Welp, it ain't that.

I have a friend who is on the large side but has the confidence and attitude to make a trash bag look good. So, I don't think the definition of "good bodies" is cut and dry. I wish I had a 1/3 of her confidence.

This is a not-all-fingers-are-thumbs and not-all-rectangles-are-squares situation.

People with good bodies look good in almost anything, but that doesn't mean people with bad bodies look bad in almost anything.

Maybe call them (in a nod to Friends) "Compartment Pants."

Example- My little sis used to visit me a few times per year, we’d always go shopping in Palm Beach or SoBe.. The little (insert explicit name here) can seriously put on any pair of jeans and look amazing. Doesn’t matter if they’re $30 or $300. My body does not allow me the same.
We’re both thin, so it’s not about fat shaming, just different bodies and what works and what doesn’t.

....And we’re back to agreement!

 

[CaptainAmerica]

Agreed! What is up with wives these days? I mean, it's their job to carry all of this other stuff. Can I get an amen?

Who carries their wallet in their front pocket? That goes in my rear right pocket in any pants, shorts, etc...... Also, getting 11-12" shorts in normal "dress" shorts is very expensive. Sure, if you want to rock the 9" above the knee dad shorts, go for it. But almost all Cargo shorts are 11" inseam and cheaper than buying "dress shorts". Plus honestly, cargo shorts look better. If your going to wear tight dress shorts, might as well just wear pjs.....

That would be the correct configuration upon getting in the car to visit Disney. Don't forget the keys.

Wallet in the back pocket is a major source of back pain, not to mention that it becomes easier to take.

Yeah, for the people who put wads of cash and cards in their wallet and it being over an inch thick. I carry little to no cash and 3 cards. All you need in daily life. And thats the benefit of cargo shorts. All the pockets have buttons or at least a zipper. Plus my booty is sensitive back there /s

I honestly never knew the hate towards cargo shorts. Its pretty much the only thing I can find to wear since I am over 6 feet tall that fit correctly and dont have two pale white knees sticking out below the inseam. Also, I dont know of many cargo shorts that have more than 6 pockets. 2 on back, 2 hand pockets, and 2 leg pockets. Thats only two more pockets than a normal pair of shorts. Now carpenter pants..... Thats some serious amount of pockets.

1. Keeping your wallet in your back pocket is extremely bad for your spine.

2. If you don't want to pay for Brooks Brothers or Vineyard Vines, go with Old Navy Broken-In Khaki Shorts for Men, 10". Full price is $25 and they're often on sale for $15 or less. 100% cotton, 0% teenage skateboarder.

3. Bathing suits should sit just above the knee. Casual shorts (like above) should sit at the knee. You should never be wearing shorts that fall below the knee. Ever.
