@RiotDemon I take full responsibility for the wayward direction of this thread. Let’s just say I put the words in your mouth. As for the clothes…according to Webster, you can lounge in pajamas even if you don’t sleep in them. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/pajamas
@kykazaa@RiotDemon i think @CO2 derailed it and I guess I would tell them apart based on if I would wear them in public. Or just wear them at home… but that’s still a very large pool. I’m not against throwing on the stained (but clean) sweat shirt I use to work on the car/do yard work if I’m cold. No one is ever gonna see me.
And sometimes you just wear PJs in public cause fuck it. So. Meh?
@kykazaa@RiotDemon@unksol Derailed? I prefer to call it ‘rerouting the tracks.’ On that note, I like where it went. Am I dark and twisted? Maybe. Just maybe.
@kykazaa Il buono il brutto il cattivo
Well that was fun! Love the movie, though I’m not sure how that is what came up.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Except for a few examples, Giphy seems to have failed you miserably in this thread…
To save energy, I keep the house warmer in summer and cooler in winter. For now it’s still just undershorts, but once the furnace comes on it will be the same plus a heavy robe, or pajamas or warm athletic clothes.
I would love nothing more to get dressed and do something…anything with people! I’m so tired of being cooped up in the house! I don’t even know what day it is half the time…
You mean what’s my wardrobe consist of? Teeshirts and sweatpants.
I rarely go anywhere. First it was the bad hip (couldn’t trust walking, my leg would just give out), then the hip replacement, then the COVID.
I did go to Costco a couple of weeks ago to get new glasses. He did the shopping while I got tested. I never left the optometry department (at the front of the store).
It doesn’t matter what I wear when I’m seeing people; it’s about what I wear when I expect to be seen by people. Out for necessary shopping and errands: unremarkable but comfortable clothes and shoes. At home: same, but possibly grungier depending on what yard work I’m doing. “Dress-up” occasions: the same, because I’m retired and don’t do fancy clothes.
My boyfriend always wears “the uniform” which is a T shirt and boxer shorts. After stealing a couple of pairs of his old shorts, I found some bamboo boxer shorts for women on Amazon that rock. Maybe when it gets colder, I’ll get their capri pants.
if it’s 60F or above, tshirt or tank top & underwear.
if it’s ~50F, add black cotton leggings & ankle socks to above.
cooler, knee socks instead of ankle socks. it has to be really cold for me to wear anything long sleeve. also depends what i’m doing. i run very warm so if i’m up doing anything at all i’ll wear less than if i’m sitting on the couch. but also, the couch has blankets including an electric one so i prefer that vs. long sleeves or thick sweats or whatever. and i never wear shoes or makeup at home.
ETA: i don’t have pajamas. i wear the same tshirts and tank tops & underwear to bed as i would wear during the day. i’m not sure when that happened but, here we are. (long before covid anyhow.)
@jerk_nugget Me too. As soon as I get home (or if I’m always home) the clothes I’m wearing stay on me until I shower. I can’t remember the last time I changed clothes to go to sleep.
@Fuzzalini yeah, if it’s august and/or i’ve cooked anything messy for dinner i’ll put on a clean tank top but otherwise it feels like a waste of a shirt since i’m going to put on something fresh after i shower anyway. (and clothing conservation is esp important to me as i have to go to a laundromat to do laundry.)
I can go without seeing people for at least a week and video conferencing is not a requirement for work, so my wardrobe in a word would be “sparse”. It’s a good thing in my view as laundry, water, gas and vehicle costs have dropped to pre-college levels. Electricity and online charges however, have been stubbornly bucking the trend for some unknown reason. I’ve been meaning to give the power company and bank a call to double check their records.
I have slightly enough respect for myself to usually wear boxers or shorts. As it gets colder shirts/sweat shirts/pants are added. Which is sightly weird cause the basement doesn’t change temp that much…
Inexplicably more put together than when seeing people

Why isn’t “meh shirt / gym shorts” an option?? I’m not saying I’m wearing that right now. I’m just saying I wore that 6 out of 7 days this past week.

Are they still called pajamas if you sleep naked?
@RiotDemon It depends if you sleep alone or not.
@RiotDemon @rtjhnstn Skinjamas sounds a little too creepy.
@RiotDemon
I think they’re called “sister wives”. And they don’t like it if you call them “pajamas”.
@mike808 @TheCO2
Y’all are weird.
@RiotDemon that’s clearly a birthday suit. What are you playing at?
@unksol I meant if I put on an outfit that people normally sleep in, but I don’t sleep in it, are they still pajamas?
@RiotDemon @rtjhnstn @TheCO2 But Skinjamas is what Bill told me they were called. He made them himself.
@RiotDemon Thank you! That’s what I was going for. @rtjhnstn @yakkoTDI It puts the lotion on the skin.
@RiotDemon yes and how else you be in pajamas…
Some how some one wants a skin suit and just. No no. Nononono

@RiotDemon why would you care what they are called if you sleep naked?
@kykazaa because I own some, but they aren’t used for sleeping.
This went in a direction I didn’t expect.

Is it a weekday or weekend? That really affects how I dress, as the dress makes the mood.

@kykazaa didn’t say anyone wanted to see me in them lol. There are walls to protect the people.
And we’ve never use video chat for work. Idk why people do. I have my built in webcam disabled.
Never seen most of my coworkers. Seen some of their pets lol
This would have been so much more fun if everyone posted the giphy of what they wear…
/giphy skivvies

@kykazaa ah, that was much more fun. A giphy is worth a thousand words.
Can’t remember that happening in last 20 years.
After 25 years of Dressing For Success, my retirement wardrobe consists of comfy pj’s, t-shirts worn as pj’s and jersey shorts 90% of the time.
Doesn’t that make it hard to carry a wallet, keys, and cell phone?
