Why Bad Things Happen To Skinny People

You know, I think now would be a good time to just sit back and enjoy a bit of poetic justice. I mean, who amongst us would have dreamed that showing off our bods in skinny jeans could be so dangerous?

And - while we're busy asking questions here - who says that life is unfair?

Not me. Not anymore.

  6. Poetic justice, indeed. This cracked me up because I have a 14 year-old daughter that had ridiculously tight skinny jeans, and she complained that her legs went to sleep if she sat cross-legged. After I had to tie her shoes for her, I think I convinced her that maybe it was time to move up to a size 1.

  7. There was no way in hades I'd be caught alive or dead in skinny jeans regardless. Give me a pair of roomy boot cut jeans and I'm good. I am a firm believer in leaving something to the imagination of my viewers.

  8. Life, I think, is actually innately hostile to the living. And I find that rather comforting.

  9. Geez, I'll have to take these low slung, too skinny jeans off my pregnant self and dress properly if it's dangerous for me! Yeah right, no way would I be caught dead in those things, pregnant or not! I figure they'll just squeeze the chunky thighs up to make the muffin top a bit bigger or I'll end up with fat ankles as it squeezes it all down. Either way it doesn't sound like I'm lookin' good!

  10. Comfortable leggings, yes. High heels and uncomfortable jeans? No way! They never look as good as the wearer thinks they do.

  13. Somewhere between the sweat pants with crocs and the skinny jeans with stilettos, there is a happy place.

    Maybe capris with sandals. There's my happy place...

  14. Ah, I agree, Capris with sandals sounds good...although if no one but my family is going to see me, stretchy jeans and slippers works too!
    My older sister was a size "0" when I was a "12", back in the 80's...I don't think she ever had nerve problems, but I'm sure I would have enjoyed it!

  15. From the looks of the photos, I'd say that the crotch-al area is what's causing the tingling. Yowza!

  16. I'm not skinny, and I wear skinny jeans, but haven't had the problem----maybe its only if you have NO fat on your thighs to start with? Hmmmm.

  19. So my question is what about the sunburn she is going to get on her boobies, from running around with no shirt on. Is no one concerned about that?

  21. normally I would be all Ha-hA! take that skinny bitches, but unfortunately, this happens to me and they're technically not "skinny" jeans, they're just jeans that no longer fit.

    Damnitt.
