“The spouse you wish to speak with cannot come to the door right now. Please leave a message after the beep, and expect a response sometime in the next decade.”
I’m not sure that women can tell since they keep changing women’s sizes. In 1958 Marilyn Monroe would look for a size 12. That would be a size 0 today. So if a woman tells you that she’s been a size 10 her whole life we know she’s packing on the pounds.
i do remember Arlo saying in a comic that he was going to come into her work some Casual Friday (because she looked so good that day it made him wonder what she gets up to there, one assumed)
Reminds me of the time I walked around WalMart with my wife, with an eight foot “tail” of toilet paper streaming from my rear waist. For 30 minutes no one told me until my wife saw behind me and established ROFL (rolling on the floor laughing)
Originally they were a counter culture hippie couple. After they had Gene they both got jobs in an office of some sort. In recent years they have both retired. I think their next step will be moving closer to Gene and his family. In time, Gene and his wife may even give Meg a little brother or sister!
I did that once. I was told by a prisoner that he knew I was fat, but mot “that” fat, and stripped the sticky size label off my slacks. Even though I’m a male, (and identify as a male) I was still a bit embarassed. Prisoners really gossip. as I made my rounds, I could hear my pant size whispered and yelled all around me. For years. Sheesh. I’m glad I’m retired.

Well that’s new. I didn’t think either one worked. I’ve never seen either of them coming or going to anything resembling work.

I thought a size 10 was perfection. Sure looked good on Bo Derek.
My late wife was a natural size two but she was only 5’5’’.

Doesn’t she know she’s the envy of lots of women out there?

A 10? Really, JJ? She’s more like a 6. I mean, I’m wearing an 8 right now!

Too late for the closet. She should have washed them before wearing them to work.

Be glad this strip bares your name, Arlo. Otherwise you may get to join Lyman from Garfield and Shermy from Peanuts…

I would be ecstatic to be a size 10! Janice needs to love herself a little more (so do I).

Arlo, that would have a good time to discreetly fondle her butt while you removed the tag.

My work friends would’ve told me and ripped it off (I know from experience), not let me wear the tag all day.

One day, after work, I stopped to visit my mother. She asked me if the new style was to wear the back pockets of my slacks hanging out :-0
