Ladies of Sydney - Your Dad is Trying to Mow the Lawn and Can't Find His Favorite Lawn Mowing Shirt

We all know "that" shirt. The one that dad mows the lawn in every weekend - or used to back in '83. It's the two-tone plaid get up that's a little bit lumberjack and a little bit Chuck Norris-ish dude on the Brawny paper towels packaging.



Well, the grass is getting lengthy, mom's pissed, and dad can't find his shirt. Ladies, it's time to bring this crisis to an end, please unharness your over-sized belt, take off dad's weekend lawn mowin' flannel and let's get on with it. This is much more than just a domestic crisis ladies, it's a fashion crisis. I'll be the first to admit that I love my leggings and I own a bright orange shirt (two of them, actually), but when you start wearing clothes that could have easily been picked up right next to a Coleman cooler and a poop trowel at K-Mart, that's where I draw the line. Ladies, please look in the mirror before heading out this week. If your outfit is either a) discovered in your father's closet, b) plaid and not your school uniform, or c) an over-priced "designer" shirt-dress that despite weeks of starvation your tush still peeks out, please, please choose to help solve a domestic crisis. Give dad his shirt back, so he can mow the lawn, mom will pipe down, and we can move on without having to look back at photos of ourselves in five years and wonder how in the heck we thought we looked good.
