Yes, Zameluzza... it's a lovely thought isn't it. I have a picture of my youngest son asleep in his high chair, face down in a plate of mashed potatoes.... that's the kind of picture that would really frost a kid! Unfortunately, my youngest son is 32 years old now, and he doesn't embarrass all that easily!

All you'd have to do is keep that outfit hanging in your closet, and the next time one of the kids come out of their bedrooms headed for school looking like some Grateful Dead groupie, you could just reach for the closet door and offer to drive them to school... they'd go back and change immediately!

Weezingreen, thats what I will do *LOL*
if I get everything working and printing I will post a picture of the project *LOL*

I'll be waiting!

:)
OK

Well, it looks like Troy has put out a challenge of his own: http://davesgarden.com/t/363960/

Weez, did you forget polyester pantsuits? That's rebellion if I ever saw it! And talk about embarrassing ~ I was EVER so glad when Mom finally got rid of hers. They don't wear out, you know ~ rebellion and child embarrassment for years and years and years and years and years...ad infinitum. ;)

Zamy, I'd LOVE to see your finished product, too! LOLOL!

Shoe, how about Pawlownia leaves for those of us that are built for comfort, not for speed?

BTW, no butt floss for me. Bikinis when I was willowy ~ granny panties now that I'm pillowy (LOVE that, Jo!). BTW, ever thought of the fact that grannies don't show panty lines? Unless you have the REALLY tight jeans instead of the ones that loosen a bit after the butt.

Wingnut, once again you have picked up the ball and run with it... polyester! It will probably be the only clothing remaining in future archiological digs... leisure suits! And how about the polyester flowered blouses and stretch pants...two sizes too small! Drive those little punk rockers to school, and don't forget to get out and open the door for them, then pop the hood to bend waaaaay over and check the oil... right there in front of the school! All our old polyester clothing has to be in a waste disposal pit somewhere in the Nevada dessert... it sure wasn't biodegradalble!

Great idea, also to offer "Just My Size" leaves for the "Followers of Shoe". I might offer our local Pushki leaves (see pic) for the full figured followers, but it tends to cause a rash when you sweat... ouch!

Panty line... I thought that was a bunch of folks standing in line for the big openning of the JC Penney's underwear sale!

I don't know, Weez...Those leaves are pretty deeply cut, so I hesitate to believe they'd offer quite enough coverage! I'd have to overlap them. ;)

That's OK, Gardenwife, I'm a bit "over-lapped" myself!

I'd have a roll sticking out between each one of those deep cuts in the leaf! LOL

Have you been peaking in my window, MollyBee!

LOL more like the mirror!

I would have rolls peeking out all around the four leaves it would take to cover this body part of mine. That would be obscene. I guess I have had too many Idaho Baked potatoes with sour cream and butter. And fudge.

Ponditis: I hope the fudge isn't going directly on those Idaho bakers!

Ewwwww! Chocolate on baked potatoes! Yuck!

Here we go! The solution to all our 'Shundies problems! http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=www.millergarden.org/images/People/Greg%2520with%2520gunnera%2520leaf.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.millergarden.org/content/Staff%2520Photo%2520Gallery.htm&h=279&w=419&prev=/images%3Fq%3DGunnera%26svnum%3D10%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8 And an alternate use: http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=www.millergarden.org/images/People/Richie%2520with%2520gunnera%2520leaf.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.millergarden.org/content/Staff%2520Photo%2520Gallery.htm&h=279&w=419&prev=/images%3Fq%3DGunnera%26svnum%3D10%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8

I wonder if that comes in tall sizes? I bet the guys never thought they would be in a forum with all the thongs. If someone does a search on thongs and this comes up they would probable be ready to kill.

No I don't put the fudge on the baked potatoes although there is an outfit here that does. Yuck...
That gunnera leaf would be big enough for me!!! yippeeee!!!!!!!!!!

Hmmm, polyester has a shelf life of 32 so I think even in the next life it will be there. I like the leaf solution, much more environmentally friendly. Has anyone ever worn out a pair of underware? (I know we have but it is still there to be gotten rid of) So, how about Greenleaves as a new product line?

ROFLMAO and PIMGP (GP=Granny Panties) Trying to do some catch up here in Daves and stumbled across this forum. I haven't laughed this hard in a very long time.

As the senior member of the IBTC (Itty Bitty Titty Committee) a bra is something I have never needed and have seldom worn. I do love the new sports bras, I wear them under my coveralls instead of a shirt to work outside in the Florida heat and love them!!

Annie

Oh, bras! Ack! I used to be not really well-endowed, but not flat chested either. Since I've gained so much weight, I'm MUCH more blessed. But I still hate wearing that bra! Sports bras ~ yes, much better! They do tend to make my shoulders hurt after a while, but they're more comfortable than regular bras by far! I really need to go to a specialty store and get a good-fitting bra or one of these days I won't be able to garden on my knees without one.

BTW, a funny story ~ one way my larger big sis made me feel better about my weight was to take me swimming at Barton Springs pool in Austin. She MADE me wear shorts and a supported bikini top, ripped my coverup off me right after we got there and wouldn't give it back. After a half hour of being "exposed" and actually getting some appreciative looks while NOT getting any UNappreciative "Hey, look at Willy!" stares, she leaned over to me and said in a conspiratorial tone, "Behold the power of large breasts." ROTFLMBO!! So there ARE compensations for being a big girl! LOL!

Yup there are compensations sometimes. I went and bought some new granny panties last month because of this thread. LOL I got to thinking about getting in an accident with my old ones on. LOL Grandma will be so proud of me for my new panties. Now to find a bra store out here in the sticks. None to be had. :( Why do they make bras into such torture chambers??? Are the designers only men? Underwire? On me? I don't think so. I don't want those wires poking me let alone severing me when I bend down to plant a plant. What's a girl to do?

Oh just read this post today make me laugh so hard really so funny about UNDERWEAR, Mini I am sure Dave might did read this post not going to said anything about it prefer private him and his wife business what they wearing. Of course our private too. I don't feel comfortable for men to read this post for sure give me so red face.

Remember the horrible craze of wearing a bra OVER your shirt (think Madonna a couple decades ago)? Now that would be something to really threaten your kids with!!!!!

I haven't worn a bra for many years: don't really need one for size, plus many physical problems when I try to. At least that was one clothing craze that passed me by in my youth.

Bali makes a very comfortable underwire bra. Number 3562

lizh, I don't think there is ANY comfortable bra for us BIG girls. Especially underwire ones. No matter what they pinch or stab or bind or just grab ya. LOL

Well, I'm going to wade back in at this point! Ponditis is right about underwires... if you're a big girl, they aren't comfy. Think of it as trying to drop a water balloon through a napkin ring. This is particularly true if one is a bit Reubesque and has periperal bits to add to the cup. Of course, my rule is that after age 40, anything that will fit in the cup is considered bosom.

As for panties, I have a whole drawer full of granny drawers, and in my size, that's about a dozen! Here's my DH holding up a pair of my dainties while folding clothes. In all fairness to me, he was stretching the elastic a bit, but then again, so do I!

ROFLOL @ you Weezing!!! You are soo brave!! I wouldn't post my granny panties on here! LOL this is tooo funny!!!! You are a hoot!

Thanks, MollyBee.. maybe more honest than brave, though! So, in the spirit of fairness, I'm going to post my DH holding up his boxers! They look lots better on him, however. He has great legs!

choke....splutter...

hahahaha

weezi!

how did you find my undies???? hahah ( aussie slang for underpants, we also call them under chunders)

brave girl...

giggle

"Think of it as trying to drop a water balloon through a napkin ring." Rotfl so hard I'm crying!

"Of course, my rule is that after age 40, anything that will fit in the cup is considered bosom." Oh, my sides hurt... Quit it, Weez, before I bust a gut!

GASP How did you ever know my words for bra, Weez? "Think of it as trying to drop a water balloon through a napkin ring." FOFLMBO That is exactly how I feel when I try to wear an underwire. LOLOLOL Sobbing from delight now. Thanks for the laugh.

Ponditis: I wonder how many hapless women have impaled themselves on a escaped underwired poking through the top of a bra cup. You know how it is, you pull that bra out of the dryer, and you say to yourself, "Hey that wire sticking out of my bra is an accident waiting to happen!", but the phone rings, the baby cries, you forget and just drop it into the undies drawer. Next thing you know, you've put the darn thing on... moments later, you trip over a throw rug, slam to the floor, and there goes a perfectly good sinus! Men just don't know the dangers of womanhood!

hey wing, you made me fall off the chair earlier with "I really need to go to a specialty store and get a good-fitting bra or one of these days I won't be able to garden on my knees without one. "

too funny!

Yes, I was going to suggest she just buy an extra pair of XL garden gloves instead of a bra!

Or how about a couple bushel baskets and a bungee cord?

LOL you guys are a riot. I have never gotten so far as to be impaled as I have thrown them away after the first few days of torture. Gad those things are awful. I washed Mom's underwire recently and it had that problem though so I removed them and she now says that that bra is comfortable for the first time since she bought it. LOL and she is small there too.

ROTF! Well, I must admit, just the other day I performed an underwirectomy on a bra. Those nasty plastic stays are now in the trash bin and I am on this side of comfort, thank goodness.

Considering the number of discarded underwires out there in the landfills, we should consider some sort of recycling program. We could save the big yellow lids from five gallon buckets, spray the underwires and some pop bottle caps black, and make ourselves some smiley faces for the examination room ceiing at the doctor's office.

This is so funny to talk about our unmentionables like this. But it is also nice to have it out in the open too. Of course I won't have MY unmentionables pictured in this thread. That honor is only for Weez. LOL Sometimes it is nice to NOT have a digital camera. LOL (really really nice)
