Or this one

A few months back I found myself in a mall doing some clothing shopping. I don't like shopping in general, and in particular don't like clothing shopping. The clothing I do buy, I keep forever. I still have stuff from high school in my closet, though those items have tended to shrink with age.

Back when I was a kid, clothing was easy. I got to wear whatever had managed to survive the abuses of 3 Esh boys, the youngest of which was just older than me. School clothing was easy as well, since we had to wear uniforms. We wore navy blue pants, a light blue or white shirt, and a blue vest.

While browsing the clothing racks in the mall, I came to a realization. I do not presently own any navy blue pants, light blue shirts, or dark blue vests. Furthermore, the thought of wearing anything of that nature is very unappealing. Probably the next time I wear anything of that colour, I'll be old, senile, and unable to have the sense to protest. I've performed my lifetime's quota with those colours.
