You're not allowed to have a midlife crisis until +45???

There is no way I'll make it to 90....

I know I've overused this phrase, and I promised myself that I would never use it again, but there is nothing else that so clearly and succinctly expresses how I feel about the H belt.

It is, to be brief, the homosex

I'm confused, what does the H buckle have to do with obesity, age and low purchasing power?

You don't get it - honestly?

Here goes:
- Man has midlife crisis
- Man wants to attract young, attractive woman, not his wife
- Man is no longer attractive (if he ever was), and has figured out that GSOH is not enough
- Man needs signifier of great wealth, to attract particular sub-species of YAWNHW (female aurum fossura)
- Man can't buy Ferrari
- Man buys H belt

What if the man has the Hermes belt and a Ferrari?

I recently saw the Men's GMM for Neiman Marcus at the airport in NYC. He was wearing the "H" belt with an alligator strap with his suit. For those of you not in retail, a GMM, general merchandise manager, is the boss to the DMM, divisional merchandise manager, which is the boss to a group of buyers.

Wow, witty

Maybe you won't need the H-belt after all

She was at least 40 and sexy beyond most 25 yr olds dreams! On a man......not so sure it will carry the same power.
Was it her?

By combining the H-belt with that Briggs carry-on you are asking in the other thread, you'll have so much class going and be top of the heap.

Wow, you are bitter, hilarious, but bitter! Keep up the great posts!


I think he was kidding.
