I want all the insecure guys at the pool to know- we don't care. Just buy some briefs. I totally agree- what’s the point of swimming laps in board shorts?

Is this where you plug your Nike Frees or Vibram 5 finger shoes? (I'm still waiting for the right size of the Vibram 5 fingers shoes to give my opinion on them). I like the rhetorical questin.

I know you've tried with Loren, but perhaps some people are beyond help when it comes to proper swimming attire. totally agree with the suit rec, but i have to state a strong preference for silicone caps: much more comfortable, easier to put on/take off, warmer, and longer lasting.

Additionally, you are not allowed to drive Greta's car for this. Greta says I'm lovable which is pretty much what you need to tell Mr. Remaly now that he's in the dog house for picking on his girlfriend's stroke. I think you're an elitest lesbian. I even like Brian more now. All this fashion advice from a guy who wears plaid pants, a polo shirt, black running socks and running sneakers – all at once, in public and on purpose.
