i wear sweat pants pretty regularly now. I've contemplated wearing them to work. Comfort beats pretty much every other consideration when you reach a certain stage in life.

Say that to Chief, who still manages to put on his Sunday best every morning! 

 

'Asylum Guard' seems such a more appropriate title.

I was thinking more along the lines of daycare provider.

Sorry, not a believer that sweat pants room yoga pants belong in the workplace, unless that workplace is the gym.

 

I get the comfort factor but those are "I give up" choices.

Yoga pants started becoming incredibly popular when I was 14-15 years old... It was really the perfect storm. 

I can assure you that I don't wear them for anyone's entertainment but my own.

 

And that sounded weird. But I meant for exercise and comfort.

I wasn't talking at you......c'mon I expect you to know that.

 

I hope you were referring to Van because dude, I wear yoga pants.

Haven't seen Cool Hand Luke, eh?

Another great thing about back to school... Is school lunch! School lunches I'm sure are night and day different than when we went to elementary/middle/high school. My favorite school lunches were taco day, and square pizza day! 

What were yours?

Agree 100%.  Appropriate dress is lost on some.

You said it, not us!

Oh no, you said it, I just made it more obvious for you.

I was a huge fan of taco day.  Our school had some turkey gravy stuff over mashed potatoes that I loved.  The square pizza wasn't really my thing, but pizza boats sure were!

 

My mom works in the school district and from what I can tell from her stories, kids eat like kings and queens these days.

And I'm perfectly fine with never working for you.

I also remember the turkey gravy stuff over mashed potatoes! I'm very much intrigued with pizza boats... Do explain.

Ok, fine.

 

But we can still drink beer together in sweat pants?

 

Oh no, you said it, I just made it more obvious for you.

No, no.  I never said that I was entertained.  That isn't the right word at all.

 

I wouldn't consider admiring the female form to be entertainment.  They aren't specimens or pieces of meat.

 

Yup, better stop there again. 

 

Ok, fine.

I love d'etente.

It's pizza on a crust shaped like the hull of a boat!  With the extra crust, you got a little extra sauce, toppings, and cheese.

 

My wife said that she had a taco salad type thing in a similar presentation.  I'm jealous of that.

Haven't seen Cool Hand Luke, eh?

Um, yeah, when it was a first-run movie in a theatre. Don't remember much about it, though.

I suspect he's trying to channel Strother Martin.

And what better a way than with beer!

What were some of the Canadian lunch specials in elementary/middle school for you, North? 

Haven't seen Cool Hand Luke, eh?

Love that movie.

 

Don't remember any yoga pants though.

 

Hmmm, so what I've gleaned so far is young women wear yoga pants for old men's entertainment.

Is that about right?

Close. FTFY. 

 

And what better a way than with beer!

I'd say whiskey, but I don't really discriminate.  

School lunch is one of those things that has gratefully been purged from RAM.

Boilermakers.

Man oh man. I could go for some turkey gravy right about now. The best. 

All of this food talk is making me hungry.  All of this booze talk is making me thirsty.  All of this yoga pants talk makes me want to exercise.  Only so many hours in the day.

I know it's cliche but Poutine was pretty standard, Shepard's pie, pea soup and KD with Franks.

 

Also had the good ol' pizza pops and the like.

 

And Butter tarts....always Butter tarts.

i think poutine would have been one of those things that I'd take an extra initial helping and went back 9 more times and then be sick for the rest of the day.  I'd then learn nothing from it and repeat the process every time it was on the menu.
