    Give it a try. Hit up a thrift store and get some great tacky suits from the 70s and 80s, if you can find em. It’s a bit of fun to wear them when it’s not necessary or expected. I probably wouldn’t wear a really nice wedding/funeral suit in such cases because I spill fucking everything and would become destitute from the dry cleaning bills.

    Now, if it were a social expectation/requirement, it would suck and not be fun. But, as a choice that one can make, it’s great sometimes.

      I have a tailored suit in my closet, but there’s no way in fuck I’m showing up to work in that suit or any other suit.

      For one, I work from home and I want to actually be comfortable. For two, if I was going into the office, I would ruin it at some point crawling under desks and behind racks and shit.

        Absolutely there with you. Hence my suggestion of thrift store.

        And for wearing one to the office? I also work from home so, would only likely do so to confuse my wife.
