In Yiddish, those are called "schmatas."

Actually I just clicked on the link. These clothes look like the cut-out wardrobe for a Mrs. Roper paper doll.

Who doesn't do that when they're a fat ass?! When you're fat, you do everything possible to cover it up, only to look even fatter.

I learned long ago when you put on a few extra pounds, you do NOT wear a lot. Wear a black, button-down shirt, leaving a few buttons undone. Then put on some leather pants.

Do I strike you as someone who would own leather pants

A harness maybe - but pants - I do not think so

Actually, I had to wear a leather and chain harness in this AWFUL play I was in one time. At least I had a body back then and could pull it off -

LOL.

What the hell were you in? Dinner theatre at a leather bar?! All the fun without the two drink minimum?!

I own over ten pairs of leather pants.

You Yankees and your fashion sense

No - it was a big production at a large local playhouse (about 1,000 seats). I played a pirate and that was the get up they had me in. Personally, I needed a two drink minimum to go on stage like that - then again who am I kidding - a blowhard like me will go onstage anywhere anytime

I suppose I should be careful using that word and talking about wearing a leather harness!!!!!!

Interestingly, I found these pics of myself from that era and am like WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED!!!!!! Then a la "its my own damn fault" from Margaritaville, I now freely blame the Chinese and their MF Gen Tsao's chicken!
