shopping for clothes in a country full of fat people when you are tall and skinny is one of the most frustrating things ever.

Just buying Clothes when you are tall is frustrating. I'm 6' 6" tall and buying jeans sucks. i think the only place I'm guaranteed to get them off the rack in a size that will fit is Old Navy.

Most Clothing companys think that after about a 36 waist, your not going to be tall. So it's usually 36x32, 38x30, etc... Trying to find a length of 24 is difficult!

true that, i'm 6'4 170lbs, i can usually manage a 34x34 but finding 32x36 or 34x36 almost never happens. i like my pants to go behind my shoe instead of sit on top of it so i either have to sag a bit or get really long pants. shirts are the worst though, all my shirts are blank cause tall tees are the only things that fit how a shirt is supposed to fit. most XLs and all XXLs are wayyy too wide. it sucks because after large, they get about an inch longer and a few inches wider every size up you go.

yeah the XL or XXL thats barley an inch longer than the L but 3 times as wide... thats awesome. it really depends on where you buy your shirts. Walmart tends to have the WIDER (Same with Baby Clothes, some are REALLY WIDE, and some are not my Baby girl fits into some "smaller" sized clothes then she should, but has not fit into her size or even larger sized sometimes because they are so wide and short)

Target tends to have the longer... as well as more quality clothing places.

i have found a few different things at target that fit decently, they're all blank though. there are a few stores that have a couple shirts that fit alright with things on them but i don't really mind paying $20 for 4 shirts that fit perfectly at finish line :P

the thing about more expensive clothes at nicer stores is i skateboard and longboard a lot and with longboarding especially, you fall and whatever you're wearing is likely going to get ruined.

f-ing sandwich maker at subway shoves everything into my sandwich and ties it up so when I open it when I get back to my desk... it bursts everywhere... it is no longer a sandwich... it is a pool of crap

Their bread isnt big enough for a fully loaded sandwich. I dont think I had subway all summer back in RI. Now that Im down in Daytona and there are no D'Angelos's, Subway is the cheapest and best solution.

yeah that's what i usually wear, then it doesn't matter if it gets stained or anything. the shirts are HUGE, mainly for like kids who wanna look all G and wear shirts to their knees. but i figured out if i get a large or even medium and wash it it will shrink up and fit perfectly.

this is the one i'm wearing at the moment. it's one of the bigger ones but it's nice and slim.

Subway went downhill when they stopped cutting the bread by making a V in the top. the side cut doesn't leave much room for fixins. thats why places like Cousins, Jimmy Johns, and Erbert & Gerberts will pull out the bread filling from the top section. but only E&G gives it to you on top of the sandwich... it's the bread guts.
