But my mom is the same way as above. "Just letting you know I called! Call me back!"

Uh huh...

That is more or less me, could I be pointed in the direction of these stores that cater to these sizes? Because outside of RW & Co and Simon's, and I guess GAP, I'm pretty much swimming in everything. I keep hearing about Boathouse and Jack Jones being glorious for more casual clothes, but everything in there fits me like I'm an 8th grader trying on my dad's clothes.
Admittedly it's been easier for me the past 10-12 years during the slim fit era, but I can tell its fading out. Need more stores for us short kings (and XL kings). Not everybody is 5'10"-6'0" and between 180-200lbs!
I'm just glad that tiny suit jacket with criminally tight and short pants fad seems to have run its course. Dudes looked so bloody stupid wearing those suits.
Albeit I've strayed away from suits over the last few years, I've always gone with the James Bond style rules. The most stylish and classy guy I have ever known lives by and introduced me to them. You always have a classic fit, it will almost never go out of style, and most tailors will know exactly what you mean when you ask for a James Bond cut.
Albeit these rules were much easier to stay within when I was closer to 200 pounds instead of my current 240 girth, it's a great way to keep things simple, and get a ton of life out of a suit without it looking ridiculous in 4 or 5 years.
What's the speed limit in a back lane? I just got smashed into by someone in a hurry to get to work as I was exiting my garage... my bumper barely had time to clear the door.

Is it? I thought 20, but either way this dude was well over.

When Covid hit we went to scrubs. I don’t actually need scrubs anymore but I am never going back. Scrubs make it so you are as comfy as wearing Pajama’s but look professional and like you know your stuff. No ironing, no trying to get pen marks out of shirts. It’s honestly the best.
Dang. That sounds amazing.

The 'professional and like you know your stuff' part only work in a health care environment, not at your small business. We all know you're getting ideas.

This is more of an "I Don't Want to Live on This Planet Anymore" type post but I won't bother bumping that thread.
I'm sitting at my desk at the large window of my second floor home office that faces the street. It's about 10 feet to the sidewalk.
Dufus extraordinaire in his ####ty minivan pulls up in front. Gets out, goes around to the back bumper and stands on the sidewalk. Intends to take a piss right on the middle of the sidewalk but sees me as he's looking around just at the last second so he turns and starts peeing on his back tire instead. Then I knocked on the window mid stream so he felt embarrassed and he walked around to the driver side while keeping the stream going. Dogs at least know to go on the grass or in the bushes.
Across the street is treed greenspace that spans many blocks.
