me: “I was thinking about maybe rolling up my cuffs –”
Levis: “—No. Absolutely not.”
me: “But why not? James Dean used to wear his pants rolled –”
Levis: “– Sure. And when you get better-looking and can pull off a smoldering angst face, then we’ll talk. In the meantime though you’d just look short and mildly retarded. And I’m pretty sure that’s not what you’re going for.”
Maybe you should try Bermuda shorts with long black socks.
“In the meantime though you’d just look short and mildly retarded…”
As opposed to the way you look now?
So you have the choice of looking like Alfred E. Newman or J. Alfred Prufrock.
I’m looking at my post and thinking, I guess it’s just my lot in life to be in the middle of the comedy food chain. I never could hit the breaking ball, but feed me a BP fastball, and that sucker’s OUTTA HERE.
I’ve always wondered whether these conversations started with the Levis neatly pressed and folded on the valet, or after pulling them on, one leg at a time.
You know that roll-em-up thing only works with boot cut jeans, right ? ‘Cause with relaxed fit jeans, that would just look dumb.
And don’t forget the yellow shooting glasses. Man, if those aren’t cool !
Yeah, the good ol’ James Dean/Hunter Thompson/please beat me quite savagely with the thickened end of a broomstick look. You’ll be covered with groupies in no time. Any minute now.
Was that a naughty bit, Diana?
um .. let’s just say it’s subject to interpretation.
It’s always a naughty bit. She’s street smart.
Whereas I look like a sex god with my jeans rolled up. Sorry to rub it in.
Yeah? Prove it.
We want pictures, don’t we Sparkle? And I for one want to know if Packwood is your real last name or if it’s just a racy nom de plume. Give us answers. Answers and pictures.
Do you guys know why Flea was one of the first people out of S.F during the earthquake?
He already had his wood packed….and I think we know where.
My Levis too bootilicious for you, babes!
Gail, can you hear a chicken squawking? Cuz I can.
BTW, your bootiliciousness, thanks for linking to that cat stacking game. It’s truly mindnumbing! (And as a child of the sixties, I think of that as a GOOD thing.)
You got to admit Sparkle, he is kinda cute.
So how the hell did you end up with all the extra leg length on your Levi’s ? You dont know your own inseam or what.. ? I picture one of three scenarios here.. either (A) you totally overestimated the extra you add for ‘dressing left or right’ e.g. for an 8” cut gay porn cock of lies you must add 14” to the inseam.. or (B) you refuse to accept your actual height.. e.g. I AM 6’4” dammit.. I AM.. I AM.. I AM ..I dont care what that lying liar of a cloth tape says.. I DO NOT have a 28” inseam.. I’M BUYING A 36” INSEAM CUZ I’M 6’4”! ..or (C) Your Mommy bought them for you. So which is it?
By the way.. If theyre Levis ‘Super Bells’.. they dont really get cool looking til you walk on them and shred the back of each pant leg under your heel.. just speaking as one that was their circa 1972.. then toss on a patchwork shirt and a belt with an oversized brass buckle ala Davy Jones of The Monkeys.. slather on some Hai Karate and the foxes will be swarming you in no time.

Oh, one last thing.. My inseam IS 36” but not because I’m tall..nuff said..
AI Ghost in the Machine word: became
As in: That was before I became a Baboon..
As a goy, I must defer to my Wranglers.
