Just going to randomly leave this here.

Back in 2011 when I played New Vegas was when I first heard of Obsidian and Josh Sawyer. After checking out his vlogs on game development on Youtube, he also had videos on biking and his bikes also appeared numerous times in the background. Something in my head just *clicked*, like I realized "What the fuck, I can do gaming but also be fit and healthy and go outside and not be a fat shut-in (as I was)". So I went out and purchased my own bike and started biking.

7 years later, I am still riding. I've lost total of 50 pounds got toned as fuck and in best shape of my life. Cheers Josh

You should tell that to Josh. He'll be chuffed to hear it. I believe that under that rough German exterior beats a warm, human heart.

Yeah maybe I will. I've kept it to myself long enough.

Someone once said to him they went to Zion National Park after playing Honest Hearts and it was so beautiful they couldn't play Honest Hearts again because it's a pale imitation, and he said something like "good because my goal was to make you want to go to Zion". So yeah I bet he'd be pleased to hear his sperging about bikes actually had a positive effect on someone's life

Besides, being fat is un. This story really ticks all the right boxes.

Looks like MCA and Sawyer switched bodies in later years, lol.

look at how high he wore his jeans!

Speaking from a place of privilege, age, and fat-assedness, when you reach a certain circumference, you can either wear your pants/belt below your enormous belly or try to tuck said belly into your pants in the mistaken belief that the belt will work like a girdle and make you svelte and attractive to... someone.

Looks like JES went with the latter approach in his younger days. On the other hand, he actually lost the weight and I have a feeling some of us (probably some of the americans) remain fat as fuck.

Fashion bro. At a certain time in the late 80s and early 90s jeans were cut practically nipple-high.

 

[AwesomeButton]

Fashion is the reason women's jeans are being sold to men nowadays. Also, spend less on materials, offer at higher prices.

It looks fucking disgusting and ugly if someone fat wears the pants/belt below your belly, I'd rather see them wore like Sawyer does in that pic.

Listen to the man. Finns are known for their dress sense.

Wearing jeans more towards the waist is much more comfortable, and looks better IMO, particularly if you're full in the seat. The reason why the jeans in that photo look silly is mostly due to the wash of the denim. The wash on all of their jeans looks terrible / would get laughs/weird looks down the street today.

While it hasn't hit mainstream mens fashion yet, higher rise and fuller fits are coming back as people see photos from the 40s-50s and go how the fuck did we get here from there?

Lighter wash denim requires a 'natural' look, the right cut and the right complementary clothing to work correctly, this is probably the best example I've seen in recent times

The bottom 3 darker washes here would look better in the cuts they are wearing in the photo

Also true. And with fashion being cyclical, it's no shock that high-waists are coming back, at least on the women's side.

I'm not arguing. From my perspective, it looks disgusting and ugly either way. That's the joy of being obese.

Imagine if Obsidian Entertainment was called Plunderers of Virginity Inc. (a reference to their 'Pillars of Eternity' toy line).

Imagine if Josh Sawyer and Katrina Garsten at October 14 2017 9:18 knocked on your door, absolutely destroyed your significant other, and then told you "You're a virgin".

You counter with "No, I'm not." Upon which they say "You have no idea how right you are..."

Where on earth are you living where people point and laugh at inferior jeans on the street

 

[AwesomeButton]

Australia of course. :D


BTW I'm not seriously claiming that higher rise is always better, there is some optimal rise, but I think it's subjective and it's higher than where they offer it right now.

Too low cut jeans and you get your package all compressed down there, and when you sit, your shirt is halfway out on your back. It's really horrible.

fat sawyer making a come-back with a vengeance; look at that thicc slut just parading around his horrible dietary habits!
