This man has 0,000 do you really want to listen to him?



Joking, of course. I suppose he is right, in the case of life most things are ambiguous.

I have been down the same journey, lost 45lbs, etc. Ideally, both are great!

Unfortunately, this is true for both men and women.

I hope your wife gives you AIDS and you both die horrible deaths.

EDIT - This was in reference to a spam posting which has since been removed. Please note, I do not want any of you fine people to catch the AIDS.

You do realize it's nearly impossible to be 30lbs overweight and dressed in Dior don't you?

Rick Owens, who is arguably one of the greatest contemporary designers (if not THE greatest) says so.

Sf exaggerates how slim dior is. They're jackets are pretty loose now and the 21cm is pretty baggy. There knits used to be stupidly slim, but now they're loose too. You don't need to be that slim to wear dior.

Have you ever undressed a plain jane (or john, if you prefer) to reveal a gorgeous body? Then you know the answer already.

Only non-jeans Dior I have is a blazer that is hilariously slim, so just basing it off my experience in that realm. I think it's from 2008 or 2007 though, maybe cuts have changed. It's, at most, 17.5" p2p. Cimabue: I know some girls who have really good bodies, dress horribly, and no one will ever know they have good bodies because the way they dress is so unflattering.

Poorly dressed people are simply uninteresting. Fat people are downright gross to look at.

Health trumps all, and looking better naked than someone else wearing the flyest clothes in the world is the best.
