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

[RustySpork]

I'm feeling a lot of hate in here now lol This thread should now be re-titled - "Pet Peeve - Men who wear cargo shorts to the parks, people who wear pajamas (is that even sanitary), leggings (no, just no), and cargo flip flops! Also, people who don't have "good bodies" (eww)"

FTFY

I don't think you know what "hipster" means. If the shorts I posted are anything at all, they're New England preppy. But not really, as New England preppy would typically be much shorter.

I don't think anyone has even said "preppy" since the 80s. Do you fold and roll the ankles, and wear a raised collar too? Yes, that's too much hair gel!

The problem with a lot of my dress shorts is that the pockets are side cuts or are very shallow. Keys, phone, anything in there spills out constantly and is prone to getting lost. This is one reason why I prefer shorts that have a deep pocket and if they are with a zipper it is a huge plus for me. Peace of mind.

I try to keep my money clip/case in my buttoned/zipper pockets up front. It only goes in my back pocket when that pocket has a button or zipper.

These are invaluable for when you visit theme parks with keys in your pocket... even if you close the flap, they can jostle out. But not when you use a badge clip on your key ring and clip to the inside of your pocket.

Full disclosure: I wear t-shirts in the theme parks. But this is how I'd dress going out to dinner in the summertime.

Needs more top hat and monocle.

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

Wallet in the rear left, souvenir maps collected and stuffed in the rear right, keys in the front right, cash and chapstick in the front left, a small pair of reading glasses in the left leg, and a cigar for that long walk back to the hotel in the right leg. The perfect number of pockets in cargo shorts.

If you need chapstick in the Orlando humidity, you're severely dehydrated my friend. Drink moar water.

I take a Carmex stick in with me all the time (and I drink a lot of water). My lips get sooo dry in the AC that some of those ride queues have.

Personally i don't care which pocket the butler keeps the money /phone etc in as long as he has it to hand when i need it.

Wait, what?

How do you bounce back and forth from Correct to Insanely Wrong so quickly?

Chapstick is a staple..
...like leggings are.

Never in a million years did I ever think my favorite thread on these forums would be this one. But alas, it has happened.

Yeah, Chapstick is a staple in Boston in February. I'll even grant that it's probably necessary on the flight down to Orlando. But not once you get there.

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

Not fat?

Shorts go below the knee.

These are what I wear, made by Duluth:

1. Shorts do not go below the knee. Those are pants. Or I guess Capris?

2. Those are fine work pants. If you’re a carpenter or some such. Those work great.

Is that a selfie? If so, you’re quite the fit fellow.

I’m 5’8 150lbs, that’s essentially how I dress as well.

It deserved to be turned into lighthearted fun

Chapstick is a staple everywhere, at all times.
Period. Especially SPF chapstick.

..and this just made me feel a lot more fat than how I felt this morning. Guess I need to throw away the pistachios that I just took out.

Lol, no. I'm 6'1, 240. But I dress well.

That's really funny, I just grabbed the bag of cashews.

 

[HwdStudio]

I guess I don’t pay as much attention as I thought. I’ve never seen a kid in PJ’s and if I had I wouldn’t care. I try not to worry about what others are doing unless it violates my civil liberties. Why get so upset about what people that you don’t know and what their kids are wearing.

I love cashews too.

Ohhh.. I’m really going to add to a pet peeve here..

Guess what I was about to drink while watching the Serbia v Switzerland match...

An Evil Adult Beverage

Shame, I know. I should feel shame.
