All Dressed Up and Nowhere to Woe

Based on an actual thought I had when I realized my nice slacks and grubby tennis shoes were the only two things I had that were clean right before I had to go to work.
Are you talking about fashion? Seriously?
I thought you were a guy? Guys are naturally immune to something called “fashion”.
Really? Have you seen who all is in the top 10 of the Industry? 8 ¼ are men …. Donna Karan has me confused more times than not.
As for men’s fashion, that has shifted 180 since the Edwardian age where men were the colourful ones in high heels and frills. Only cowboys are still in heels these days. Not even hipsters do heels.
Yeah, but that’s about the same situation as in cooking:
All the housewives in the world need to cook meals for their families. Yet how many female celebrity chefs do you know?
Nice title
Wait, you have a job you actually have to go to? Or is the drawing table in front of a wall-sized mirror?
Love the title of the strip. Love the Jesus bug. I pay little attention to fashion but I do pay some since I’m interested in all human endeavors. Fashion overload as we have it in the “developed world” is, frankly a result of one of the top five human inventions of the last three thousand years: Inexpensive washable clothing.
Hot running water number one, flushing toilets number 2, soap number three, eyeglasses number four and then clothes you could inexpensively clean and reuse.
I have often had the same though about impoverished countries but it’s usually about food. Sometimes I take frozen strawberries, microwave them, mix in a little sugar and put them on instant waffles. Then add a little wiped topping to the top and make some eggs and bacon and it’s a heck of a breakfast. It’s not an expensive breakfast to make but it looks and taste really good. So I have thought to myself, the economy may not be very good and my job may not pay very well but if this is a cheap simple breakfast things are still pretty good.
If you want high-fashion, accessorize with a “Neck Dickie”, like this one: http://happyratcomics.tumblr.com/post/140637658271/ferret-scarf
Same thing happened with my pet mice. I let them climb all over me, but every once in a while I feel it… *shivers* -~-
The phrase you want is “First World Problems”. It’s even a hashtag.
I’m not sure if you made up the phrase “I’m not even an “Autumn”” or if that’s really a thing, but it’s hilarious!
