Bloody stupid computer

I play Sims before going online because Sims likes to crash at random taking the whole computer with it (causing me to reboot/disconnect). It did crash, as I was quitting. *rolls eyes*

So I reboot, and connect and start up LJ and ICQ and stuff.

And lo and behold, ICQ crashes!!! Taking the computer with it *screams in frustration*. So there's another phone call wasted. Oh how I wish I had ADSL.

Okay, now to the actual content of this post. You know how on knickers it has the size then the hip and waist measurement. Why on earth does it have bust size?? Like I wear my knickers around my boobs! These days you hardly even need waist size seeing most knickers these days don't get that far. Still getting used to these hipster knickers. They're great, can't see a thing when I sit down, but they're so low they feel like they're falling off. I hate hipsters, but all the pants these days are that damn style. If I find a pair of pants these days that goes over my hips they hideously gape at the waist. Stupid designers. Hello, REAL females have curves, we're not all straight up and down like all these damn waifs. *grumbles*

yeh, I've often wondered about that myself...

and about the pants, I'm hearing you on FM! I know what causes the problem though, not that it helps. It's cos they don't give us enough bum room--so pants don't sit right, and the waist gapes at the back. If you stand side on looking in the mirror, and you see the waistband of the pants slopes upwards towards the front, then that's your problem.

In severe cases (i.e. me!) you get extra space in the front, and it makes you look like you have a pot belly when you sit down. It's fairly simple to accomodate for, but it must be done in the patternmaking stage, not after sewing--you can't adjust for it.

*grumbles loudly* don't they know real women have things called HIPS? and BUMS? if we didn't, we'd be men. What a thought!

i now have to buy jeans and stuff in the men's department because all the clothes in women's are styled for those twigs that have no rear ends, curves, hips, or anything remotely female. *sigh* good thing i like men's jeans.

Sims online... I don't think it will be released in Australia for a while yet and I've heard nothing but complaints from the beta testers. :(

underware issues

[(Anonymous)]

Just discovered i've been waring the incorrect underware size for the past year (which explains why by back hurts) but why is it that bra sizes only come in mormal. Do you know how hard it is to get anything in a 10D? or a 12A? Don't they realise that some people are naturally small & busty, or average but fairly small?

Yes!! I always have gaping space in the front between me and the pants too, even when they fit everywhere else! And it does that gaping thing when I sit down so that I hace this strange upturned potbelly look... it's very evil ^^

I have found pants that don't do this, it jut takes a lot of searching, eh? ^_^

Hmm well I tend only to wear mens jeans simply because they do fit better. Plus for those who complain about pot belly, that isn't my problem, I have a curvature in my back that dents in thus leaving a huge gap at my back!

I find hipsters gape at the back, not the front, I didn't realise most people had the problem with a gape at the front.
