Default Something Mundane

Can't handle all the back & forth excitement here regarding politics, the "other place" brouhaha, et al...........

So, I visit the Tractor Supply Co. store near me occasionally for around the house stuff, noticed they have a section for Western style clothing. I bought a couple T-shirts for S&G's to see how they hold up.......... after washing, wearing, found out I really like them. Comfortable, soft, holds its crew neck form well.

Went back and bought 4 more, on sale, 2 for $16 or $8.99 a piece.
Isn't that exciting!.....................

I like the Hanes ‘Beefy Tee’ t-shirts. As long as you don’t scorch them in the dryer they hold up well.

The big question is how thick are they? I've noticed that t-shirts sold the last decade or so have become thinner than piss on a rock and can develop holes/tears faster than a Michigan road in February.

I believe the thinner colloquialism was uttered by Harry S Truman.

They're not thick and not thin to me, just right.

Price and quality look a lot better than the offerings at Wally World

Might have to take a trip to the TS near me when I am not KungFlu positive.
