whatever...and some other stuff

what is the deal with those tall skinny aquafina water bottles? it's still 500 millilitres, i can tell even though it's not as short and fat as the regular one! fuckers can't pull the wool over my eyes and trick me into thinking it's bigger or something. and these stupid skinny bottles don't fit properly in the drink holder in my car and fly out every time i turn a corner.

low fat cheese (which i now eat on my 'trying to behave' gout diet). oh my god, it tastes like fucking crap. takes away all the joy that comes from eating cheese. which for me is a lot.

i need new internal organs, more specifically kidneys. i don't mean to mock anyone who actually has failing kidneys and i am quite happy that i am generally in good health but come on...repeat bladder infections, kidney infections, and now 'the gout'? obviously my kidneys are going to shit. i thought that's why we had 2 kidneys each! anyone want to donate a new urethra and kidney or two? maybe i should put that on my wish list.

it's amazing that women don't kill themselves when going shopping. if you're a guy, you're a small, medium, or large, or 36, 38, whatever. but apparently i am a size 6, 8, and 11. go figure....cuz no one can decide on a standard size. no wonder women have body issues! and we torture ourselves thinking that we're fat or something. there's no way the fashion industry would do this to men. men would just stop buying clothes altogether...or maybe they would buy a size medium (and wear it) even if it didn't fit them right. and i'm sorry but when i'm wearing a large or extra-large, what are the actual 'large' people supposed to wear?

art, but the thing is, i'm not large! i'm 5'11" and maybe weigh 145...and as much as i hate my body sometimes, that is not large! so why should someone who isn't actually 'large' have to wear a tent? huh?

cj, ewwww.

You're are 5'11"? That rocks! I love tall chicks!

You are put together very nicely and I don't see why you dwell on what size you wear... This is something women do to torcher themselves... like you said you are not large so relax!

i could not live without cheese!!!!

i hear you. i am a six and up i never know what bloody size to take in i was a 28 in jeans i think now a 29 but i have short legs everyone thinks i am tall in the 'blogger' world but i am not man, not even 5'6. but anyway i go into jacob one day for pants and that store is the worst size wise so i grab the 6/7 pant and the sales lady is like you are not a 6/7 take the 3/4 and i am like fuck you man those are TOO SMALL...so then i felt like crap.
great post we can all relate!

louie, i don't dwell since generally i'm happy with my appearance and i certainly don't think i'm fat. it's just frustrating as hell to think you know what size you are and then have to try on 12 pairs of pants to find one that fits sort-of ok. guys don't have to do that.

egan, hot.

steph, i knew the girls would understand! wedding dresses are insane, i'd probably have to buy a plus size!

corinna, exactly, it doesn't make any sense! and then the higher priced designer stuff runs big and cheaper stuff (aside from wedding gowns) runs small. i pity any man who wants to go buy clothes for his girlfriend. good luck picking a size.

actually, women have it easier because they don't actually measure their wastes when fitting them for pants. A 28 waist for a man is skinny. For a woman, less so.
