**Muffin** , me too. I’ve just about lost it at work a few times watching dudes with this look volunteering to run and get a piece of equipment. Then having to hold their pants up with one hand going to get it, and periodically stop and hike their pants back up on the return trip, when both hands are full.

Yeah, you lookin’ so cool now, huh?
