There is something wrong with my trousers,
They are now too tight.
There is something wrong with my trousers,
Putting them on is quite a fight!

What is wrong with my trousers?
Why are they so small?
What is wrong with my trousers?
Are my legs growing tall?

My height has remained the same,
My socks don't smell any more.
My hair needs a cut, but that's not to blame,
My legs still reach the floor!

But what has caused my trousers to shrink?
What is the cause I pray?
Is it global warming, or drink?
Or do I stink? 'Cause my trousers are no longer ok!

Why do I walk so funny?
Why do my eyes bulge out?
As I am sure my old trousers are...
Smaller now, there's no doubt!! !

It's something to do with his weight and dimension!"

That both hits home and is funny. :lol:

With "assistance" from a couple neurological, endocrine, mitochondrial, diseases plus some musculoskeletal decay problems I weigh about 50 lbs more than I did before these diseases manifested variously around 15 to 25 years ago.
I went from around 147 to 152 depending on the scale used at the time, to around 212.

Which is pathetically hilarious when people occasionally suggest that these diseases wouldn't bother me at all if I lost about 20 pounds.
Excuse me Einstein, but they bothered me when I weighed 40 pounds less.

And then the really pathetic fool was the one who said that I'd be cured if I got my weight to 20lbs less than when I got sick.
They didn't know my starting weight.
And didn't bother to ask.
After all, why should they ask when they walk right in already knowing all the answers.
Yeah, right, 5ft 11in tall and 130 pounds, I'd be a friggin famine victim, that's sure gonna be healthy!

I figured out what caused my clothes to shrink back in the 80's & 90's. Fruit juice fumes.

I was buying lots of fruit juices to drink. When I opened my refrigerator their fumes wafted out, crossed the kitchen and dining room, went up the steps, crossed the landing and the master bedroom to the closet. And when they got into the closet they caused my clothes to shrink.

I stopped buying fruit juices and my clothes returned to their original size!

(Hey, it was consistent with what I observed and it worked. So it has to be the reason, right?) :)

Science is observable, so it sure sounds like science to me!

its the obvious conclusion . have heard of fruit juice fumes creating exactly the same effect , en masse to a small clothing factory in Ecuador but the fruit juice factory was down the street and around the corner, but the prevailing wind was blowing that direction . All the clothes in the factory shrunk into itty bitty baby sizes from the adult sizes they were made to fit .
(Article came straight from the dark web). :idea:

I've been gaining quite a few inches since my COVID infection, and none of my clothes fit anymore. I was too scared to weigh myself, but I finally did last night...
I've gained 30 lbs. I've never been this heavy before in my life :(
