Pluggers by Rick McKee for January 11, 2014

But, there’s a hole in only one of the sleeves.

Lose some weight, Sir, and maybe you can fit into it again.

I have a couple of old T-shirts that are just broken in nicely & soft & comfy now. Holes in them?… yup but only wear them to bum around the house in. Why ruin a ‘good’ shirt when I can ruin my old ones & keep on keeping on?

Looks like Jeremy’s favorite shirt from Zits.

She gets my leather bomber jacket when they pry it off my cold dead body.

Oh, we husbands have heard that line sooooo much that I don’t even listen anymore. I propose that she can have my shirt when she throws out an article of clothing of her the same age as my shirt. She then retreats and doesn’t bother me for a while as she would be admitting her true agel.

I only panic if I can’t find the same shirt anymore to replace the one that’s being retired.

Shirts and clothes in general are cotton/poly blend. The shirts and undies go when I hold them up to the light and see the cotton is gone and they are a grid of clear plastic. They are going to fall apart soon, anyway. They don’t work very well as rags when the cotton is gone.

You are not a plugger if you don’t know what a “rag bin” is.

She must have seen USA on it.

I live alone and have no one to get rid of those "broken-in clothes. I had a sweater with worn out elbows. Bought some “leather patches” and sewed them on. The sweater lasted another 19 years before I finally admitted that it needed to go.

have pants with so many patches that I dont know what colour the are anymore

1997?? I’ve got Fruit Of The Looms older’n THAT !!

I too have lost that discussion with my wife on occasion. Usually they are 7 to 12 years apart. I know I am nearing the fourth or fifth in a couple more years.

Ted Forth, years ago, asked Sally where the cleaning rags were. Her response, “They’re in your underwear drawer.” I agree, but only on the undershirts.
