My pants are getting on a bit so I figured I’d get some new ones. They fit me perfectly at a length of 32 inches, so I figured I’d buy the same online. My new pants are delivered and they’re way too short. Alright, let’s go to the shop instead so we can actually try things. The pants marked as length 32 are dragging on the floor. Let’s try the length 30 then. Alright, that fits but I’m not too fond of the material. Let’s try a different brand. Oh, the other brand is dragging on the floor at length 30? Let’s check a guide to see how to measure my true size. Seems simple enough, hold a book between the thighs and measure from the floor to the top of the book. But the guide doesn’t come with a chart to tell you the size, so let’s check another website… XS, that can’t be right? Oh, it’s actually from the crotch to the end of the trouser leg?

I’m so done with this…
