American dads are always giving me shit for never wearing shorts, even when it's 100 degrees out. Hell, I don't even feel comfortable without a sweater on.

I only own khaki's. I think I own one pair of jeans. I have no idea what I would wear if I needed to go for more than one day with the weather under 50.

I own no khakis.. I only own jeans. Summer is my least favorite time of year and I always look forward to cold weather...

I wear jeans to work. If it's warm enough I'm wearing shorts outside of work exclusively. I like all the seasons, except for when winter drags on a bit too long.

I hear ya.. I wear jeans to work every day.. which is nice. I dig winter but I, admittedly, enjoy those first few days of spring. Once the 80+ degree days arrive, though, I've had enough.

I only wear zubaz.

You don't clear brush in shorts? <Cough cough pussy cough cough.>

You can, but it does not sound comfortable or even safe. No way I am clearing brush in Florida while wearing shorts.

Europeans don't wear shorts. In fact, it's pretty much only Americans who wear shorts. Not only do your comments make you sound European, but I will not sit here and let you bad-mouth America, because God! Guns! Freedom!

But the European thing was about his aversion to work.

I trimmed back some pine trees last weekend. Looked like I had chicken pox after I was done from where all the needles poked me.

It's summer time. I'm not wearing a coat so I can't shove my car keys, cell phone, sunglasses etc. in the coat pockets. Cargo shorts offer a great solution to that problem.

Braided belts OTOH, fuck those things.

Zipper pants, man, zipper pants. That's the way to go.

Pants, especially jeans, are easy to re-wear for a few days as long as you don't poop them.

But yeah, I wear shorts 95% of the time, including to work (unless I have client a meeting). I'm always amazed at guys I know that will wear something like jeans along with a dress shirt with rolled up sleeves to something like an outdoor kids birthday party in the middle of an August afternoon in Miami. I don't get it, but I was never very preppy. I can dress up however I need to, as an occasion demands, but just regular hanging out and running errands, it's shorts and a t-shirt.

Bob, I'm sorry somebody teased you when hair started growing on your legs. You don't have to have a complex about it. Feel free to try shorts again sometime.

Most importantly, always wear gym shorts to the scrip club.

Nothing wrong with damn cargo shorts, I have a lot of shit to carry, keys, wallet, giant phone, heaters.

You carry that stuff because of the cargo pants and not because you need that stuff.

Cargo shorts should stay in high school. With that said, I've been slacking on laundry lately and wore a pair yesterday.

Better than carrying some damn man bag, also cargo shorts are great on weekends for carrying multiple beers

That's just. You carry that stuff because of the cargo pants and not because you need that stuff.

Ironically I put an old pair on yesterday too. But I would never leave the house in them.

Seems like you'd need undersized junk to avoid a big bulge with that.

I was only making a statement, not asking what they looked like, and I'm so, so very sorry you misunderstood me.
