  • Well, it obviously depends on the style of fabric. Soft and loose fabrics can be good to have baggy, such as sweatpants or flax-based summer clothes. But specifically for the type of jeans shown here, I don’t like the tactile feel of the excess fabric. And it catches on itself and gets in the way.

    I don’t like skinny jeans either, to be fair, but slim fit is good for me. Im also italian, if that explains it.



  • They’re not meant to be used to change prices on the fly. The 10 minute window is literally just so you can fix mistakes like typos, in case it says 179.9 when you meant to put 17.99. Like when a customer comes in, and says “the advertising said this is supposed to be $5 this weekend, but the price tag still says its $8, what gives?” Then you can go to the back, change the price to $5, and it will update all the tags for this item on the fly. There is no limitation stating you need to wait 24 hours or however long you think would be fair. You can also use it to schedule sales that start at a specific time of day, fx food items that are made to be consumed on the same day might get cheaper near closing time.

    Price gouging is still price gouging, and generally, at least where im from, there is a legal obligation that the customer can rely on the listed price at the time they pick up the item. I can’t imagine it’s that much different in the us?

  • Bro I share that core memory. Except it was coming home after having gone to the store for my mum. I was pretending to interview myself about what it was like to suddenly star in the Harry Potter movies.

    I was telling “the interviewer” all about how much fun it was to hang out with Danielle Radcliffe. I even specifically remember that I was saying how sometimes he would joke about his scar burning between takes, which was apparently super funny when he did that.

    So I was recreating how he would scream “aaah, my scar!” to show my fake interviewer how funny it was. It was at this point that I looked around and noticed the girl my age, who had stopped midway through putting on her bike helmet, in order to give me the dirtiest “what the fuck is this psychopath doing?” look, which I’ll never forget.

    I also remember that I was really torn. On one hand, if i stopped because I had noticed her, that would mean admitting that I’m being a weirdo who shouldn’t do this in public. The alternative of course, being to double down and continue unapologetically. I am actually kinda proud of young me for recognizing the validity of just owning it - I mean, in the end I was just a kid playing and learning to socialize. Of course, I didn’t have the gall to pull through, so I ended up walking home in silence.

    That’s not my experience, those WFH job offers from far away usually have pretty high pay checks but also ridiculous amounts of responsibility. Like, they will pay 40k a month on some crypto thing, but then you are required to be available 24/7, and yes, they will call at 3am regularly
