Denim

I am thinking that I need jeans. Perhaps these?









Denim is hot, uncomfortable and uniquely unsuited to people who spend most of their waking hours punching keys instead of cows. It looks bad on almost everyone who isn't thin, yet has somehow made itself the unofficial uniform of the fattest people in the world...Despite its air of innocence, no fabric has ever been so insidiously effective at undermining national discipline.

Denim is the infantile uniform of a nation in which entertainment frequently features childlike adults ("Seinfeld," "Two and a Half Men") and cartoons for adults ("King of the Hill").

Needless to say, I'm having second thoughts.
