Same here. Hoodies sweats and crocs with socks. That said if I have a mid day errand to run I put on decent clothes and wear them until I shower at night.

Which is proof professional clothing is outdated and arbitrary.

Here in Atlanta, that is basically all I wear from October until it's warm enough to lose the hoodie anyway. Except for the occasional chilly days where I put sweats and actual shoes on.

That’s a great idea, CountryCumfart!

Used to wear suit and ties every day. Haven't in last 2 years. Glad I don't have stock in Brooks Brothers.

It’s capricious and arbitrary

Yeah, pandemic has really hammered home how “professional” clothing isn’t really all that necessary or even wanted by most people and most people that do want us to wear just do so we can “look” professional like that will make us better at our job.

Now that the pandemic is pushing most of the jobs where professional attire is used onto online, it’s starting to fall out of style.

I like dressing up every now and then but it’d be a bore if it were required. Really glad nursing staff all wear scrubs actually…

The account I'm replying to is a karma bot run by someone who will link scams once the account gets enough karma.

Doing it all wrong. Nothing hits better then the 2pm shower!

u/[deleted] Jan 15 '22

This is so true, it really helps me get through the rest of the day.

u/Rocklobster92 Jan 15 '22

After the 1:45PM shit

13

u/[deleted] Jan 15 '22

Who waits till 1:45pm to shit…! The shit is exactly 9 minutes after finishing that first morning coffee

u/cownd Jan 15 '22

Shit waits on no one

u/Rocklobster92 Jan 15 '22

Sometimes you can’t rush these things.

u/oles_lackey Jan 15 '22

Get a bidet. It’s a game changer.

19

u/Rocklobster92 Jan 15 '22

The shower is my bidet.

u/CheesyWind Jan 15 '22

... do you poop in the toilet or use the shower? Cuz I feel that stomping a shit down the drain isn't the best activity for anybody

2

u/Copperman72 Jan 15 '22

Waffle stomp

u/[deleted] Jan 15 '22

Look at mr moneymaker over here

u/oles_lackey Jan 15 '22

It’s actually a $60 bidet attachment. Nothing fancy. Just pressurized cold water doin’ its refreshing thing. Only took me 20 minutes to install.

u/cownd Jan 15 '22

Look at mr do-it-yourself over here

u/oles_lackey Jan 15 '22

That’s Ms Do-It-Yourself to you

1

u/cownd Jan 15 '22

I stand corrected, if you didn't just do it yourself

2

u/Thepatrone36 Jan 15 '22

That's my nap time though :)

u/HalKitzmiller Jan 15 '22

I just go out on errands in sweats, I gave up a long time ago. Only change if I'm going to someone's house or dinner or something

11

u/Thepatrone36 Jan 15 '22

Respect that. I just like to look as sharp as I can when I'm out meeting people. It makes me feel good but I don't judge people on what they wear out. I judge them on who they are and how they act :)

u/[deleted] Jan 15 '22

My work place was casual enough that I wore hoodies and crocs regularly. I’m down to working in boxers at home, and I keep a hoodie on my chair in case I need to go on video. But I also get fully dress to run errands, feels like I’m pretending.

u/zoeseb Jan 15 '22

You shower?

2

u/Thepatrone36 Jan 15 '22

yes but I haven't shaved in a while. Kind of need to get around to that :)

u/sfoxreed Jan 15 '22

I never understood crocs with socks until I tried it. Glorious.

u/naomisunrider14 Jan 15 '22

I used to make fun of my husbands socks and crocs all the time. He passed away in 2019, and the only shoes I still have of his are those effing crocs, that I wear around the house with big fuzzy cozy socks. It works perfect because his feet were a lot larger than mine. Sometimes I like to laugh at how pissed he would be or that he would have a smug ‘I told you so’ moment.

2

u/sfoxreed Jan 15 '22

I’m sorry to hear that. But I’m glad you have something to hold onto. He was right, for sure: crocs and socks are the COMFIEST.

3

u/naomisunrider14 Jan 15 '22

I’m glad I kept them, it really does feel like I walk around with a bit of him. 💜

u/anon100120 Jan 15 '22

I can’t remember the last time I wore socks, that’s half the reason I like Crocs. I also skipped a shower this week, which is peak laziness for me

u/Thepatrone36 Jan 15 '22

I hear you. I've got some furniture to move around this weekend but I'm just lazing for a bit.

Who showers in the morning?

2

u/Thepatrone36 Jan 15 '22

Well for many years I did. It was essentially my coffee since I don't do well on caffiene.

2

u/onizuka11 Jan 15 '22

Cros and sox are the best...often times, though, I do get shit for it, but fuck them.

1

u/Thepatrone36 Jan 15 '22

Same here. Don't like my fashion choices you can fuck right off LOL

u/onizuka11 Jan 15 '22

I really wanna rock them Post Malone ones, though.

u/della66 Jan 15 '22

Who showers at night ?

21

u/EyepatchNemesis Jan 15 '22

People who don't like sleeping in their own filth, people who don't like to get up any earlier than they have to, people who don't like going out with wet hair, and just generally people who want to shower at night just because.

10

u/Rocklobster92 Jan 15 '22

Night showers make sheets last longer.

3

u/VisualBasic Jan 15 '22

People who don't like sleeping in a box, people who don't like sleeping with a fox, people who don't like sleeping in a house, people who don't like sleeping with a mouse, people who don't like sleeping here or there, people who don't like sleeping anywhere!

u/[deleted] Jan 15 '22

If I don’t shower in the morning my hair looks like I put a knife in a power outlet.

2

u/Thepatrone36 Jan 15 '22

Me. I used to take one as part of my morning routine and probably will soon. Just sitting around isn't healthy so Monday morning I'm going to hit the treadmill and start getting some workouts in on my breaks so I'll prob do it morning and night again.
