:rotfl: lol....awesome....and of course i can appreciate it, being both chunky & over forty. :rotfl: crop tops & low rise jeans don't look good with a stretch mark belly either. and this applies to those under forty also.:chuckle

i thought of another thing that made me chuckle- the light beer commercial, where you see people dancing in low rise jeans & the one with the beer belly. :chuckle

Another rule: If you wore it the FIRST time it was in fashion, you're too damn old to wear it now!! :chuckle

[leslie :-D]

and low-rise elasticized pants are not flattering either...

especially with your white cotton spankies.

"Say no to crack!!":p Butt crack, that is!

I would love to take credit for the above quote, but I must give credit where it is due.

About fifteen years ago my mom was driving me, my younger brother and oldest nephew home. We were 12, 8, and 9 respectively. We drove past a man (definately well over forty) working on his car, bent over the engine, with the world's worst case of plumber's crack. John Allan goes "Grandma, hey Grandma, GRANDMA!" "What!?", she replies. "Say no to crack!!" I lost it! He was nine years old saying that to his grandmother. She tried to reprimand him, but she was laughing too hard. :rotfl: :rotfl: I'm still laughing hysterically fifteen years later as I am typing. He's in the Army right now and boy do I miss him.

Comment: Never thought about a walker with in line skates, MAYBE I could stay upright that way.

question: What are cotton spankies, sounds kinky!

I rthink cotton spankies are another term for granny panties.

"thongs and depends" LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
