    Well hell, that's my MO, but between the time I take them off and the time they show back up on the shelf, things change. :p

    If you're 30+ it's acceptable....I won't make fun of some dad for wearing jorts, but if one of my buddies were wearing them... :D :D :D

    off topic...

    if your casual pants or jeans were a little long, is it acceptable to fold them a couple of times so it won't hang over your shoes and be stepping on them. Or would you just get them altered.

    1 or 2 folds = ghetto poor?

    3 or more = trailer trash?

    My old boss & I met Jerry J. Moore for lunch a few years ago. He showed up in an old F-150 and was wearing jorts.

    It's wonderful to not give a damn what other people think. More should try it.

    Wear big shoes. That or just get some clothespins....

    If they're just casual it's not really worth paying to get them altered.

    Subconsciously, they do it to impress or intimidate weak minded people.

    The fact that they all look exactly the same is probably a good indicator that they DO care what other people think.

    Right, because nothing screams "carefree individualism" more than spending countless hours & dollars to ensure that you look just like everyone else.

    I love it when kids cry about school uniforms and not being able to "express themselves" because they can't wear their mall bought clothes that every other kid is wearing.

    This thread reminded me of a good friend that ran track back in college.
    His entire wardrobe consisted of Jorts and Tanktops and the women loved it.

    Jorts are for pansies.

    Unless you're shooting hoops, I think any grown man who wears any kind of shorts out and about (i.e. shopping, a night out with friends or family, etc) should be given a one-way ticket to Gitmo. It's ghey...
