Edit> Damn,Binners cute kittens trump pandas

🙂

Is that Panda clean and FFS those kittens lick themselves clean
I am oot of this group hug ...think of the germs 😉

LOL, don't get upset stinky, take it like a man. Everyone needs some constructive feedback occasionally! I haven't called you names, i said you were minging for not changing your clothes more regularly.

Come and have a hug, but can you change your shirt first please?

FFS those kittens lick themselves clean

I think that's how the OP gets a week out of his socks 😉

I haven't called you names, i said you were minging for not changing your clothes more regularly.

Ok minging is contructive feedback 🙄

here have some yourself

**** off you **** 😉

Erm.. You mean you only dry clean suits say twice a year??? Ewe.

You work in IT and I claim my £5

If a suit looks shot after 6 months then yes it's about time I got rid and bought another one. They don't last long, they sure aren't made to last more than 1 years worth of daily use and anyway shiny elbows and rippled waistbands, folded collars and creases around your crotch are clearly not pleasant.

You deffo work in IT and you can keep that £5 and go get your trews dry cleaned.

Junkyard - lazarus

TBH i think folk are a little OTT in this area

I work in a air conditioned office WhyTF would I change my shirt every day?

I am devastated, I always had JY down as some horny handed son of the soil, man of the people type skilled artisan, blah, blah, blah !
Not some water cooler lingering desk jockey !

Bloody hell I was messing around with the sox!

Sorry to disappoint i am useless with my hands - have you seen my typing 😉

Ok minging is contructive feedback

That's the spirit stinky. 😉

Minging is an term of endearment. JY is getting uppity because of his vested interest in cleaning products. You do know he's a shampoo model, don't you?

Head and Shoulders?

Jeans, I have several pairs that must be two to three years old, and have never been washed.
But they've only been worn once or twice. I've got a couple of pairs that get worn in the evenings to the pub, and they get washed maybe once a year, but again, that's a couple of times a week, mainly during the winter.
From April to October I'm wearing shorts, which get washed once a month, if they're my work ones, as I've got three pairs that get rotated, and a couple of other pairs I change into for evenings.
Tee's, a couple of days, then they go in the wash, unless i've got really hot then they go straight in the wash.
Socks, once a day, same as kecks.
Winter, I wear various army surplus combats for work, which get rotated and get washed when grubby.
They don't smell, but they get dusty, so just need freshening up.
Shirts, fleeces, etc, get washed when they get a bit whiffy, which isn't that often, 'cos they get worn only when it's cold, or if a bit cool in the evening I'll chuck on a flannel shirt over a tee, so wear time is measured in hours a year, rather than days.
I've got many, many tee's, and quite a lot of fleeces, so much rotation goes on.
It's nice to have lots of choice... 😀

Pretty much everything you just listed is CAUSED by dry cleaning 😆

Wool isn't cotton, it doesn't need cleaned as regularly. Have a google or call any tailor.

A well made suit from high quality cloth will last years and years and years if looked after properly (i.e. not dry cleaned often).

Washing is a ploy by the marketing men to make us consume more~ water shortages, animal testing and self loathing due to body image would all be eradicated if we got wise to em and let the funk take over.

It ain't the washing/dry cleaning that kills a suit, it's the friction and wear and tear that kills it.

I shudder to think a suit would last more than 1 year.

More than happy to buy a couple each year,more than happy.

I'm about to ride around town, it looks like drizzle... 😆

Friction? Try rubbing folk up less often, or learn to sit still.

says you 😉

Honestly, decent cloth is exceptionally hard wearing, cheap cloth is not. Dry cleaning is harsh on suits.

Cheap suits which are dry cleaned often won't last long at all. It's a false economy.

Buy a decent suit, dry clean it less and it will last you longer.

Again, ask any tailor how long a suit should last.

He he.

I love it when someone tries to sound all superior and knowledgeable and then talks total rot 😀

Speak to a Tailor about how to look after your suits properly.

You currently don't know how to.

Fresh underwear and socks every day. T shirts usually 2-3 days depending on smell. Jeans 3-5 days depending on smell. If I wore fresh stuff every day I'd spend all my free time washing and ironing. And quite frankly, I cant be arsed with that.

I shower most evenings too as I normally go for a late night run with the dog.

'Late night run with the dog' - I think we all know what that means. No wonder you shower and change your clothes so often. Filthy.

What is this "ironing" business? Next you're going to tell me you don't dry your clothes on a bike like a normal person should?!

Well, I think the cleaner of us are now seeing why there are so many smelly people in the world....

Had these jeans on for 3 months now without a wash, got at least another 3 in them. You're all jessies.
No, I don't smell like those kids at school who didn't wash. (You know the one).
Dry clean suits whenever they clam up.

Everything else is clean every day.

A day - like a teeshirt?

A couple of days - like a change-into shirt?

A week like socks?

Shirts - every day
Socks and underwear - every day
Jeans - whenever they need it

Some of you people are animals.

Animals

It does interest me, trousers for 2+ days is not contended. Everyone, ever the OCD shirtists seem fine with that. Even though office workers spend most of their time sat on a soft seat, legs closed more or less, gentley pickling their under carriage in foisty fug. The top half is in one lair of cotton, well ventiated, not pressed against anything...

Seriously, which bit of clothing do you think gets funky after 2 days?

My merkin.

My mankini

commando

Boys smell - and now I know why!

Seriously, which bit of clothing do you think gets funky after 2 days?

Well it's not an assumption, I have a fair bit of experience of wearing trousers and shirts.

Shirts do get smellier faster, for a couple of reasons.

1) They are directly in contact with a large area of my core which needs the most cooling and hence can get quite sweaty.

2) There is nothing underneath them, as there is in the case of my trousers.

If I were wearing really tight trousers hugging my crotch, and I was going commando, then maybe I'd change my trousers daily.. but I'm not 🙂

What are you doing to require all this cooling? Surely if you're wearing a shirt, you're not doing labour, exerting much effort. Do you need on of these fitting to help cool your core?

Umm.. cycling, running, and generally being alive.

It'll be that high metabolism burning up the excess calories that does it.

some of you people are the people you sit behind on the bus that make you want to get up and sit somewhere else once the smell hits you

Molly I dont think anyone is actually saying you should not change clothes or shower after excercise when you will smell
i think what they are saying is that sitting in a office at a desk does not generate lots of heat after just 8 hours sitting there after a shower

You keep thinking that stinky!

🙄

Alright alright, keep your shirt on....oh you did. 😉

Were any of you near the cycling magazines in sheffield WHS at lunch - I had to move away because of the smell

To be fair the three likely candidates for being the source of the odour all looked a bit old and rather rotund to be keen cyclists . . . But you never know :-O

Oh the fresh from the road touring cyclist is a horrific thing, if I get three in the shop at a time I'll have the door open for hours, even if it's February.

Well, all said and done if LHS' personal hygeine problems are as severe as he makes out, at least he is willing to put in the extra ironing time to address them so they don't effect his life... much. 😉

Junky, wearing the same shirt two days in a row is minging, soz my lovely, but it is.

Yes, I have personal hygeine problems because i am the one who is reluctant to change my clothes regularly! 🙄

The thing I can't understand is why go to the bother of showering and getting yourself clean, just to put back on a dirty shirt?

Junky, wearing the same shirt two days in a row is minging, soz my lovely, but it is.

How about wearing it for a day, lobbing it in the wash basket and then at the end of the week filtering out the least smelly ones if you've forgotten to put a wash on?

Even if the shirt didn't smell, I'd be like "didn't you have that shirt on yesterday?" What else haven't you bothered to change stinky boy

Washing baskets are the world of stink.

Just wash your clothes, how hard can that be?

Right so trousers are fine, not quite buying that but they are on average further away from the face I suppose, t-shirts for a couple of days is OK. So what's so toxic about a shirt? Fair enough if you manage a warehouse or similar, you're gonna get filthy very quickly. But sat on your ass in an office, I don't get it.

Are you by any chance... bankers?

You've never seen Jeff Goldblum in The Fly? The bit where he opens his wardrobe?

RE shirts - if worn only around an office, or perhaps for an evening out etc then I will hang it up for a few days and wear it again. I use Crystal Deodorant, don't eat fast food and wash hard. My miss'stripes will tell me if I niff. She does, but it's pretty rare 😉

Even if the shirt didn't smell, I'd be like "didn't you have that shirt on yesterday?"

who notices what shirt anyone is wearing? seriously?

LOL, now we're into new territory, this one could continue to run.

You're the guy who goes to Tesco and buys a 3 pack of the same pale blue shirt for work aren't you?

Don't some of you feel guilty about the damage caused to the environment by your OCD tendencies? 😉

Tesco? how very dare you.

Someone has to hoover up the 4 for £90 sales from Lewins you know! From the comfort of my chair, in my day old shirt, without working even the slightest hint of a notion of mild sweat.

Good work.

FWIW, you sweat less in short sleeved shirts.

Errrrr of course I'd notice if you had the same shirt on. It's obvious

Big white thing in the kitchen, round bit of glass in the middle? That

FWIW you also preclude yourself from every having sex with an attractive woman

You guys are weirding me out.....

Srsly - the make/break of your attractiveness is a shirt? Oh, my sides!

Your attractiveness is the product of numerous things, one of which being how you dress.

FWIW, you sweat less in short sleeved shirts.
You also look like a 5 year old kid.

Ah, this is why I have long sleeves shirts, roll the cuffs up to the elbow. Manly shirt, no bloody cuffs flapping about the place which I HATE HATE HATE, nice and cool.

Your attractiveness is a culmination of numerous things, one of which being how you dress.

at work? Work is work, trust me my day old shirts are not doing anything to disuade the inappropriate comments from the middle aged ladies. If I thought they might I'd be pushing 5 day old shirts...

I've not washed my Hiut jeans yet. 😕

Why bother wearing shirts are all if you don't care about how you dress?

Oh well miss'stripes is clearly interested in my other features. Or perhaps she's just high on my socks!

Oh trust me if I had a choice I wouldn't.

Actually that's not true, I do love a nice [short sleeve] linen shirt on a hot summers day. lovely fabric linen, love the way if feels on my flesh... day after day after day after day... 😀

Surely most men have sex without a shirt on . . But luckily for the male population one of the most endearing things about a man is the ability to make a woman laugh, a short sleeved shirt may raise a smirk so you're half way there 😉

LOL - that's like reading the Velominati Rules

Oh trust me if I had a choice I wouldn't.

So it's just a way of ticking an employer requirement with the bare minimum required?

So, barely meeting dress code, not bothering to wash work clothes. STW you surprise me.

Male Airline hosts/ whatever wear short sleeves shirts don't they
