What's so improbable about your jeans size? From your pics you seem a pretty normal size?

You can't see the back.  My knees bend both ways, and my ego is stuffed in my right ass cheek, making it outlandishly huge and bulbous.

"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."

I liked it so much, I bought the company!

I then:
a) reduced payrolls
b) sold unprofitable divisions
c) moved the manufacturing offshore
d) floated a huge bond issue to buy back shares
e) cashed in my options and stepped down a wealthy man
f) wrote a book about what a great job I did.

My old army buddy Willison spontaneously mailed me a pair of jeans in the improbable and hard-to-locate Roger size, plus some blank CDs.  Mrs TGRR asked, "He sent you WHAT?"  Hey, don't look gift pants in the mouth. Well, something like that.  Its that Canadia blood, I tell you.  Everything's all out of proportion, but that's the luck of the genetic draw.  Blank CDs I can fill with oddities and send off to "friends" from a bogus address, under an assumed name.  Imagine their surprise!  To each dog his bone.
Did he send you Canada Jeans? Canada Jeans are the bestest!

AMERICA NEEDS A CEO TO RUN THIS COUNTRY, BECAUSE THE ECONOMY IS IN THE SHITTER AND IT WILL TAKE A CEO TO PULL IT OUT. WE KNOW THIS WILL WORK BECAUSE JUST LOOK AT HOW CEO'S HAVE BEEN RUNNING THE BIG CORPORATIONS AND HOW WELL THAT HAS WORKED OUT SO FAR.

A CEO WOULD INCREASE PROFITS BY CLOSING DOWN OPERATIONS HERE AND OFFSHORING EVERYTHING WE POSSIBLY CAN TO COUNTRIES WHERE WE CAN PAY ALMOST NOTHING. CUTTING BENEFITS AND INCREASING TAX REVENUE. PRIVATIZE ALL INFRASTRUCTURE AND LET COMPETING COUNTRIES PUT BIDS IN FOR ROADS AND EDUCATION. IT WOULD BE CHEAPER TO OUTSOURCE K-12 TO CHINA, LET'S DO THAT.

It's okay, we can't put all the blame on your Holy Prophecy. You're just the messenger.
"I am that worst of all type of criminal...I cannot bring myself to do what you tell me, because you told me."

There's over 100 of us in this meat-suit. You'd think it runs like a ship, but it's more like a hundred and ten angry ghosts having an old-school QuakeWorld tournament, three people desperately trying to make sure the gamers don't go hungry or soil themselves, and the Facilities manager weeping in the corner as the garbage piles high.

Also I ran a mirror through the scanner (page 2 of this thread, IIRC).  Now Trump is president and the moon base vanished.
