Every store I go to now doesn’t have a chair. They all had chairs near the changing room, now not a single store has one.
I call them ‘men benches’ and that’s where I’ll happily peruse some Lemmy when the missus is shopping
Gotta get a folding chair in a sheath you can bust out like fuckin blade.
i need a back rest though. not a butt rest.

you know what? i’m a disabled person who needs to sit. i’m going to start making ADA requests for sitting areas.
That’s messed up. Here I am just complaining. I didn’t even think about folks who legit need to sit. I’m so sorry, friend. That sucks.
Yep, I currently gotta get around with a cane.
Can’t stand up for more than about 15 minutes straight.
Went to the DMV the other day… strategically sat myself next to a pair of 20ish yo brothers, waited untill it was maybe 15 minutes till my ticket would be up, and asked if one of em could pull the chair I was sitting in over to the actual service window thing.
Thankfully this worked, they were mostly happy to have someone to chat with…, one of them’s phone had died and they kept trying to check it…
But uh yeah, yeah… you’d think it would maybe occur to, I don’t know, a presumably ADA compliant government office, that there exist mobility states in between ‘fully mobile’ and ‘in a wheel chair’.
Oh also yeah just fuck you and die if you wanna take busses anywhere, can’t have homeless people with anything resembling a bed, therefore if you’re crippled, well just suck it up buttercup.
I blame anti-homeless architecture.
It un-normalized sitting.There used to be a large hobby store near me that had a section in a corner near the entrance with a TV, a couple of couches and eat chairs, a pretty good selection of movies, Legos, and a couple of video game consoles. Great place.
Oh, I thought it would be a huge store full of purple and other colors, and then half of one rack in the corner filled with grey, with a sign next to it that says “Fuck You.”
No sign, but there is a plain gray/white t-shirt there in the men’s section.
(edit: Oh, and a sock and underwear. This place has everything!)
Yeah I noticed it after, but he still looks completely uninterested.
I mean I unironically love posting up in a back alley and having a chat with some random smokers/vapers, and I love camping.
Now, I love going shopping with a lady as well, but only if they’re honest with themselves and actually give a shit about your fashion sense, as applied to them.
If they’re genuinely looking for advice, ideas?
Hell yes, fuck I’d call that a fun date, or at least a part of one.
If they mostly just want you to be there as an affirmation machine?
Byeeeeee~!
There are two clothing stores near me and I still have to go halfway across town to buy any clothing for myself.
Me whenever we went into Forever21.
There’s either a “guy’s rack” or there is no mens clothes at all
I hate these jokes. It’s like the boomer, “god wives are the worst amirite guys?!” jokes. It’s really not that hard to enjoy shopping with your lady.
Edit: I just look for clothes for her with her. Sorry guys.
Well it kind of is when they get the whole store and we get 3 shelves because apparently men don’t wear clothing ever.
You gotta go to "*Victor’s Secret. That’s where you’re messing up.
You mean the bank?
I ID with it. Women’s thrifting is 90% of the store. Men’s thrifting is the 4 things that will fit me that someone’s uncle died in.
In fairness I tend to use stuff until the thrift store would reject it anyway…
Gotta branch out. I’m fairly certain a few thrift store shirts I have were left in the mens section by accident because the buttons are on the wrong side.
Fuck if I care, I like floral patterns - fight me bro.
real men wear hawaiian shirts dude
you gotta find better thrift stores/cities.
Atlanta GA here. Sometimes there’s good finds but the hit rate of men’s clothing is proportional to the wider Western culture imo.
also how wealthy the neighborhoods are, what fashion was like there 30 years ago, there’s a lot that plays into it that i am an hour’s worth of coffee away from being able to explain properly, but then i won’t have a keyboard. i’m preaching to the choir anyways, explaining for everyone else’s benefit
It’s really not that hard to enjoy shopping with your lady.
It is if shopping is not your cup of tea. It’s exhaustingly boring.
Seriously, I hate shopping for myself, and that’s a fully engaging activity. Shopping with someone else where I’m just waiting to be prompted for my input, if at all? Fucking pass.
Npt everything is an attack on women.
It’s dreadful. A few years ago the “The wife did [insert silly thing tech-averse or shopping-obsessed person does] so I did [insert I-am-very-smart-action]” jokes were dying out, or so I thought. But hey, they are back en masse, and worse, re-done by a younger generation who fancies themselves emancipated and modern. Yuck. If you find living and/or spending time with your chosen person of the opposite sex so horrible please just don’t?

I’m sure there’re some lezzies / gays which are not fond of shopping with their partner as well.
I don’t get it? Clothes are literally unisex! If you don’t like the ugly gray with Wolfes just buy “girl clothes”
But, I don’t want to hangout with those guys. I want to hang out with the chic.
