I'm lost in Amazon hell trying to buy new underwear.

I never knew there were so many different kinds of underwear.

I'm scrolling through all of the varieties, and noticed that they make "elephant pouch" underwear. This is where there is a "tube" of fabric to accommodate a man's anatomy. Just for the hell of it, I looked at the size chart and it said that a "small" is 32 inches.

I started to panic, so I texted my friend, and his only response was "That's the waist size. Don't text me anymore today".

but it highlights a growing problem. It's hard to buy clothing online these days. I like to hold the item in my hand before deciding to purchase it, and there's less and less places to do that. Also, it is nearly impossible to find out where clothing was made on a website.

then boasted to my wife that it turns out that I am on the longer side.

"No, dear," she said. "That tape measure is in centimeters, not inches!"
