Hey, the Stash ordered baby-doll t-shirts at the ladies' request, I'd venture that there's more demand from the big and tall men amongst the VA fans.
Is there anyplace that still makes iron-ons? That would be pretty sweet, anyone could pick any t-shirt that was comfortable, and everyone would love the kitschy 70's factor. But I've rarely seen those in recent years. Speaking of the baby-doll t-shirts, I still haven't gotten one, because I'm cheap and lazy. But once I recover from my three-month hangover, I'll stop spending all my money on pot and strippers I swear. And the shirt will be all mine, HA HA!

I really just want iron-ons so I can make halter tops...
: Just a thought about MonsterZero's post on the last board. (If you missed it you should check it out as it's funny as hell as well as disturbing.)
: It's not just a question of being a fat guy that makes shirts a little on the snug side. I know that I am on the large size myself but it isnt the midsection that bumps me into the XXL zone. My gut and man teets (although not as impresive as some) fit easily into an XL.
: For some of us (MonsterZero included I'd presume) it is also a question of our comfort. I have a good sized midsection but it's the fact that I have an 18½" neck that puts me in the XX zone. The reason for wearing the size is that I like to be able to breath when wearing my tee shirts, call me crazy. There's also the question of shoulders fitting.
: I don't know how many others have the problem but some of us are just plain big and so some stuff is snug. Fortunatelly I'm not in the XXX zone (not the XXX zone you're thinking of dirty boy), as XXX is harder to come by but it does make it hard to find stuff that fits. I spent multiple hours and several stores seeking out a dress shirt that wouldn't strangle me while attending a family function.
: Just putting in my two cents about bein' a big boy.
