Huge amounts of time doign nothing, pointlessly random fighting, under-equipped, poor morale, all around miserable? That's war in real life. That one quote "The life of a soldier is long periods of boredom followed by short periods of terror" fits pretty well, except you don't actually die, so terror is just stupid.

But it's supposed to be a game. And so enjoyable. It's more like a tedium simulator.

Come to think of it, there is a significant amount of hanging back at rear bases repairing vehicles and organising things. At least, if you're in any sort of group.

Playing with a group really makes up for a lot of the problems. I was a fighter pilot for the Vindies before Planetside2 decided that I didn't get to play anymore for some reason that I didn't care enough to fix. It was loads of fun.

Clothes shopping SUUUUUUUCK!!!

You know what is the only thing worse than clothes shopping? Shoe shopping!

Hello Size 14 Triple wide! what was that? You barely exist?

[Flying Dice]

Don't remind me; when you're a small and XXL is the normal size?

* Flying Dice sighs.

No such thing as clothes that fit, unless they're hand-me-downs from thirty years ago.

At least you don't have to wear either fuck-off boots or skater shoes due to having hobbit feet.

Honestly to me it isn't length that will kill you... it is width. (well unless you are a woman... in which case my condolences you have it worse then I do)

So, for example my EXACT shoe size is 13 and yet no size 13 in existence COULD fit me... A straight up size 14 doesn't fit and even a 15 is snug.

So to correct you it isn't when you have hobbit feet... It is when you have Rhino feet.

Unless that is what you meant

[MetalSlimeHunt]

That is what I meant.

All these years, and you don't know that I'm male?

Fat clothes are significantly more prevelant than clothes that I can actually wear. Especially blazers and trousers, since they need to have longer sleeves, and hardly anywhere makes clothes that have both long sleeves and not-wide waists.

Does anyone OTHER then me dislike Jeans? Like... period?

They are just so heavy and inflexible.

I don't wear jeans unless i have absolutely no choice in the matter.

I don't have no non-jeans pants :v

I dislike Jeans too, but it's mainly because I prefer something more loose and with more ventilation.
And that, is why I wear shorts in Michigan winter.

Whenever I shop for my own jeans i have a tendency to end up with jeans 2 sizes too big because the "right" size feels like its strangling my legs. =_=

[Vector]

Yeah, I've got big hips and I'm quite flat-chested.  The combo means it's really hard to buy shirts that fit, because most blouses are supposed to accentuate the shift from chest to waist to hip. . . so it's very seldom I can find something that fits at all.  End result: Annie Hall look.

[Vattic]

Apparently I've an oddly shaped torso which means shirts and suit jackets sit strange on my shoulders. It's bearable, but if I had to wear either regularly I'd need to see a tailor.

I never liked jeans until I got some baggy ones. Still wear a lot of cargo/combat pants.
