Greetings.

It is now 7:38 AM EST for me.

I want to offer you advice, non-instigation advice, with the intent to recruit more people to read this blog. After I do that, I will search for another music video and trailer for this list, and then offer you an idea that I was actively using around October 31/November 1, 2022, less than 2 weeks ago. I then upgraded the idea. I’m still using it, but it’s a part of another idea now. I want to give you that idea so that, next Saturday, I will finish explaining idea ‘Self’ using that idea as a reference. The idea’s basic understanding name is ‘Not able not understand’, and I’ll explain that later today. For now, I’ll explain the recruiting idea.

It is now 8:06 AM EST for me. Now, even though I imagined the idea, I’m still an adult man, and the advice, in my opinion, may still be useful for the ‘target audience’, and the ‘target audience’ is adult men who only wear sweat pants regularly because of weight gain that caused them to no longer wear jeans anymore. It is my intent to offer this option to such adult men with the hopes that they may choose to wear jeans again.

Before I begin, here’s an illustration reference, refurbished for advice, that may relate to the topic. It’s not exact, but it may be useful: the scene is in movie ‘The Blind Side(2009)’ starring Sandra Bullock as Leigh Anne Tuohy, and Quinton Aaron as Michael Oher. The movie is available streaming from Amazon.com, and according to Amazon Video, the scene starts about 32 minutes and 52 seconds into the movie. Here is the quote:

Big and Tall Salesman(L. Warren Young): ‘Now just follow me, y’all. Mm-hm. There we go. Oh, we also got apparel for the ladies. But everything we got that’ll fit him is right here.’

Leigh Anne Tuohy: ‘This is it? If this is all you got, why’s it say “Big and Tall” on the sign?’

Big and Tall Salesman: ‘Big and Tall. You need Bigger and Taller. Holler if you need me.’

(It is now 8:30 AM EST for me. I just switched from the Google Chrome browser to the Microsoft Edge browser. I don’t know why, but while using the Google Chrome browser, there is difficulty Updating the pages. I have less of that problem when using the Microsoft Edge browser. I just selected the ‘Update’ button using the Microsoft Edge browser, and it updated in only a few seconds, a lot faster than using the Google Chrome browser.)

This is how I imagined certain adult men ended up wearing sweatpants regularly, and they no longer wear jeans: when they were kids/teenagers, they can just go to the mall, and they can buy their jeans and pants, but when their metabolism started to change in a way that caused them to gain weight, the jeans that they used to buy from malls no longer fit them, and this experience was in the course of years. Eventually, since they could no longer wear jeans, they had no choice but to wear sweatpants regularly.

—

So, here’s my speculation as to what caused this situation to occur: although I’m not giving this advice professionally, the 1st problem is that they don’t offer pants that have their waist size in public malls. I don’t know if that statement is accurate now, but let’s just say for the sake of advice giving that it is. As imagined proof, in the movie ‘The Blind Side’, Leigh Anne Tuohy and Michael Oher did have to go to a specialty store to purchase clothes that fit Mr. Oher. The 2nd problem, in my non-professional opinion, is how their bodies changed that discouraged them from wearing jeans. I believe the problem is that, when buying jeans, they have to also take into account that their waist sizes expand when they are sitting down. Sure, they know their waist sizes when they are standing, but their waist sizes when wearing jeans does change while they are sitting down. I’d say, for overweight men wearing sweatpants regularly, about 4 sizes more. For example, if you are a 46 waist, to sit comfortably with a little extra in the waist, you should buy jeans with a size 50. And even then, this is not an exact rule, just a guide. So, if you choose to, here’s the preparation advice to buy jeans:

The 1st thing that I recommend doing is determining your waist size. I recommend purchasing your jeans from Amazon.com. So, let’s start using search words in www.amazon.com ‘big and tall relaxed fit jeans men’. Many options are shown. The 1st 2 options are from ‘Wrangler Authentics’, and the 3rd option is from ‘Levi’s’. I selected ‘Wrangler Men’s 20X Extreme Relaxed Fit Jean’. I selected color ‘Carbon’, and for ‘Size:’, it can go as high as ’60W’! The main reason I recommend that you purchase from Amazon.com is because you can get your chosen pair of jeans in 1 business day, or just a few days. You can choose to wait longer for jeans that are less available, but the 1st stage is to determine your waist size. I recommend that you turn wearing the jeans into a tape measure. Let’s start by you guessing your waist size. Let’s say it’s ’50W’, and just buy that pair of jeans. Buy the jeans that will be delivered to you very quickly, let’s say in 2 or so days. Put those jeans on, and of course when you’re standing, the idea is that those jeans have to be ‘too big’ when you’re standing, so the purpose is to see how they fit when you are sitting down. With the zipper up and the button on, sit down wearing those jeans, and see how it fits. What you want is to wear a pair of jeans very comfortably while you are sitting down, with a little extra. So, let’s say you purchased a size ’50W’, you put it on, and as you are sitting down, it’s a little tight. Therefore, order from Amazon.com a ’52W’. In 2 days when you get those pair of jeans, put those jeans on, sit down, and those jeans should fit with a little extra space. That’s how I recommend it should happen. You use wearing your jeans as a ‘tape measure’, so to speak.

After you determined your waist size for ‘sitting down’, then you use a belt. I also recommend that you purchase your jeans belt from Amazon.com. Just search in amazon.com, for example, if your waist size is ’50W’, then search for phrase ‘jeans belt men 50’, and you are given an assortment of belts. Get one of those narrow belts, and get one of those normal size belts. Here’s a 1.4 inches wide option:

Timberland Men’s Classic Leather Jean Belt 1.4 Inches Wide (Big & Tall Available)

—

And here’s a normal sized option:

Timberland Men’s 35mm Classic Jean Belt

—

Amazon.com offers a variety of colors and shapes for those belts.

—

And I recommend purchasing a leather belt hole puncher. It’s a requirement, since you’ll probably need to add more holes to your belt. This is the hole puncher that I recommend, and it’s also from Amazon.com:

Professional Leather Hole Puncher – Leather Punch Tool for Belts, Watch Bands, Handbag Straps and More – Precision Multi-Size Fabric & Leather Hole Puncher for Crafts & Easy DIY Belt Holes

—

It’s only about $20 dollars with Prime shipping available. It has illustration examples, and as of now, it has 12,401 total ratings, 3,209 with reviews. When you get it, just stick the hole puncher sizes individually into another hole in the belt to determine which size hole you would want to make. Use that sharp metal stick to clear the hole puncher, since the hole made by that hole puncher goes into the hole puncher. Be careful, since it is a sharp metal stick. Just stick it in the hole puncher to take out that leather bit in the hole puncher.

With your new belt, apply the belt 1st before you wear your jeans. You decide from trial and error how you want to apply your belt to your jeans(the left size in 1st, or the right side in 1st). When you try to put your belt on, see if there’s a hole that exists for it. It’s probably going to be the very last available hole. After the belt is on, sit down with your jeans with the belt on, and the goal is that the jean size should already allow you to comfortably sit down.

If you did that, then I recommend that you add 2 more holes to that belt. The reason is that, if you used that hole, if you haven’t worn jeans in such a way before, it will ‘settle’, meaning that, if you go to work just using that exact hole, your pants will very likely feel like it will fall down. The solution is to just add 2 more holes to your belt, and you can use those new holes to allow your pants to stay on. And, of course, if you need to add another hole to your belt, be my guest, so to speak. You have a hole puncher, if you chose to purchase it.

I recommend that you don’t take that belt off when you use the bathroom, since it compensates for the extra waist size. Instead, just get used to using the bathroom with the belt on. If you are going to urinate using a urinal, just gradually push your pants down to allow yourself to urinate into the urinal. You should use the belt to make sure that your pants don’t fall off while working, and yet comfortable enough to allow yourself to at least gradually push them down so that you can urinate into a urinal, and of course so that you can comfortably sit down. Also, you are acclimating to that use, so allow that to happen as well. And if you need to loosen the belt a little when using the bathroom, you adjust the use of the belt, just don’t take it off completely, since that’s a lot of extra waist your jean size is.

It is now 10:09 AM EST for me. Even though it’s kind of late for me, I’ll still look for that music video and trailer, and soon after it’s prepared, I’ll recommend it to you, and then explain idea ‘Not able not understand’ and it’s variations. I’ll see you then.

—

It is now 10:12 AM EST for me. I forgot about the meaning of ‘inseam’. Here’s a quote from a link I found from google.com searching for phrase ‘inseam meaning’, and the link is gabriellearruda.com:

You may not have realized it, but your inseam is an important factor when buying jeans.

There is nothing worse than buying a cute pair of jeans, waiting days for them to arrive, and trying them on only to find out that they are…. well… way too short. Or, worse, they are a complete trip hazard, and you’ll need 6-inch heels just to maybe wear them out.

Knowing your inseam will make online shopping a breeze.

This article will cover everything you need to know about inseams, including how to measure them for yourself at home.

What is an inseam?
The inseam is the distance between your crotch and ankle bones, or the length of the inner leg seam. It’s one of several measurements that play a factor when you’re buying jeans or pants.

—

The important thing is that you are able to determine your waist size. When you select ‘Size:’ from Amazon.com, a common length is ’32L’. If you need more length, just go to www.kingsize.com(search in google.com for phrase ‘kingsizedirect’, and the link ‘KingSize® Official Site – Big & Tall Men’s Clothing’ should be one of the 1st selections offered). They have many types of jeans to choose from. If you select one of those jeans, ‘BIG’ offers ’38L’, and ‘TALL’ offers ’40L’. Just go to dry cleaner, and the tailer there should offer the service to alter it to your chosen inseam size.

—

It’s 10:23 AM EST for me. I’m going to look for that music video and trailer now.

—

It is now 12:29 PM EST for me.

I want to clarify what I said earlier, about recruiting. I’m not going to actively advertise, like add some sort of advertising in the internet. I was just going to type something in. That’s all. I’m not obligating people directly to do anything. I was going to recruit just by giving advice that may encourage more people to read this blog. I’m just giving advice in this blog. Sorry for the misunderstanding, if there was misunderstanding.

The music video that I watched for the 1st time earlier today and recommend to be watched/used for this advice is called ‘Bejeweled’ by Taylor Swift. To me, watching it was a little confusing at first, so what I’ll do is quote the review first. I found the review by searching in www.google.com for phrase ‘taylor swift bejeweled music video reviews’, and from the 1st selections offered, I chose link www.rollingstone.com. Here is a quote from that link:

In the video, Swift plays an unfortunate Cinderella bullied by her stepsisters, played by HAIM, and Laura Dern (Big Little Lies) as the evil stepmother. Donning a bejeweled one-piece, Swift enters a talent show to win over the prince and even gets a lesson from the queen of Burlesque, Dita Von Teese, as her fairy godmother. To end the video, Swift naturally wins the show and ghosts the prince.

“I think it’s really about finding confidence when you feel that it’s been taken away, for whatever reason — you’re feeling insecure, you’re feeling taken for granted,” Swift told iHeartRadio about the track. “One of the things we love to do at night, ‘cause we love to go dancing, we love to put on an outfit that makes us feel good, and we love to feel like we’re still bejeweled.”

—

And here is a quote from the lyrics to song ‘Bejeweled’:

Baby boy, I think I’ve been too good of a girl
Too good of a girl
Did all the extra credit then got graded on a curve
I think it’s time to teach some lessons
I made you my world
Have you heard?
I can reclaim the land
And I miss you
But I miss sparkling

—

I found the music video ‘Bejeweled’ by using publisher ‘InMusic Official’ from www.youtube.com. From my ‘Watch later’ signed-in youtube list, I saved a few publishers that lead me to music video collections. To find it, search in www.youtube.com for phrase ‘InMusic Official’, select the publisher, select ‘VIDEOS’, then select ‘Hit Songs Of The Week | The Best Songs Of This Week’, which was published 2 days ago. A video clip of ‘Bejeweled’ starts 21 seconds into that video collection. To watch music video ‘Bejeweled’, search in www.youtube.com for phrase ‘taylor swift bejeweled’, and it should be one of the 1st selections offered, with 28 million views! It was published by publisher ‘Taylor Swift’ 2 weeks ago. There are over 47 thousand comments. Here’s a quote from one of those comments:

I’m a lifelong metal head and my girlfriend just got me listening to Midnights. It’s amazing. I really had no idea Taylor Swift was so deep lyrically. I can’t believe I’m turning into a Swiftie! I don’t know how I’m going to break it to the boys hahaha

—

If you choose to watch music video ‘Bejeweled’, I recommend you start watching about 2 minutes and 9 seconds into the music video. That is when Taylor Swift starts singing. When I watched it, I left the ‘CC'(subtitles) on, because I was having trouble understanding it. I would look at the subtitles in the beginning, and then just watch the rest of the music video. After I watched the music video, I then read the review from rollingstone.com, and that helped me understand the music video more.

—

The miniseries trailer that I watched for the 1st time earlier today and recommend for this advice is called ‘The Santa Clauses’. I think I found it from my ‘signed-in’ youtube homepage. You can find it by searching in www.youtube.com for phrase ‘disney plus’, then select publisher ‘Disney Plus’, select ‘VIDEOS’, and scroll down. It has 4.1 million views, and was published 2 weeks ago. Here is a plot quote from the youtube link:

Scott Calvin is back! After being Santa Claus for nearly thirty years, he’s as jolly as ever. But as Christmas declines in popularity, so does his Santa magic. Scott struggles to keep up with the demands of the job, as well as being there for his family. Upon discovering there is a way to retire from his post, Scott considers stepping down as Santa Claus and finding a worthy successor so that he can become a better father and husband.

—

Here’s a quote from wikipedia.org about it’s release:

‘ The Santa Clauses is scheduled to be released on November 16, 2022 on Disney+, with its first two episodes available immediately. ‘

—

When I finally chose ‘The Santa Clauses’, because I started looking for the trailer late, I was disappointed in it. Still, I am grateful that it meets my selection criteria, and I am recommending it to be used for this list.

It is now 1:23 PM EST for me.

All right! It is now 1:36 PM EST for me.

Not able not understand:

I created/invented dea ‘Not able not understand’ by using episode 3.6 ‘It’s My Round’ from anime tv series ‘The Daily Life of the Immortal King(2022)’. According to www.imdb.com, the episode aired Oct 30, 2022, less than 2 weeks ago, on a Sunday, and I think I created the idea on a Monday or a Tuesday, a day or so after watching episode ‘It’s My Round’. If you choose to, I recommend watching the entire episode, minus the end credits. It’s only about 17 minutes long. If you are going to watch it on TV, I think season 3 is only available on Crunchyroll, so it’s available using the Crunchyroll app. I also watched it on TV using the Crunchyroll app via the Apple TV+ device. So, the 1st think that I’ll do is explain what idea ‘Not able not understand’ means: The 1st stage of this explanation, which is also how I created idea ‘Not able not understand’, is the idea called ‘Not able understand’, which describes the adverse emphasis an instigator imposes to cause an innocent person to feel an escalating sense to not be able to understand. Using the illustration references from episode ‘It’s My Round’, I changed the phrase ‘Not able understand’ to ‘Not able not understand’, which means: ineffectiveness(not able) to ‘not understand’. I then added the words ‘clarify’ and resolve’ to the phrase ‘Not able to understand’, creating the meaning ‘the clarification of ineffectiveness to not understand encouraged to be resolved’. The words should be more understandable when I explain it again with it’s corresponding illustration reference from episode ‘It’s My Round’, which I will do next.

I’m going to use Crunchyroll’s streaming service from the computer as a reference. Several of the examples are from the conversations between Zhuo Yi and Lord Thunder. Lord Thunder calls Zhuo Yi ‘Master Zhuo’. I’ll start with the auction conversations. 6 minutes and 51 seconds into the episode:

Zhuo Yi: ‘The No. 1 auction event in the human world, indeed. It’s just an old book, and the price has multiplied in a matter of seconds.’

Lord Thunder: ‘It is no ordinary book.’

—

This is a ‘warm up’ example, since everything is a ‘build up’, all occurring in one episode, and in the same day. After Lord Thunder said quote:

Lord Thunder: ‘It is no ordinary book.’

—

Zhuo Yi acted surprised, and wanted to hear Lord Thunder’s answer.

—

13 minutes and 43 seconds into the episode:

Zhuo Yi: ‘Lord Thunder, you just said you did not have that many spiritual coins.’

Lord Thunder: ‘Don’t be so excited, Master Zhuo. I was telling you the truth.’

Zhuo Yi: ‘How come you have so many spiritual coins all of a sudden?’

Lord Thunder: ‘The red long johns are from my collection.’

Zhuo Yi: (thinking to himself)(So, he has planned everything.)

—

Now, this is the 1st highlighted illustration example for idea ‘Clarify not able not understand resolve’. It’s the moment when Zhuo Yi said to Lord Thunder:

Zhuo Yi: ‘Lord Thunder, you just said you did not have that many spiritual coins.’

—

Before Zhuo Yi was given an answer from Lord Thunder, it is how Zhuo Yi felt when saying that statement. Zhuo Yi is experiencing an escalating emphasis of ineffectiveness to not understand what is going on.

—

The 2nd highlighted illustration example was Lord Thunder’s reaction when he was out-bidded by someone talking to Zhuo Yi. That scene starts 14 minutes and 16 seconds into the episode:

Zhuo Yi: ‘Wait. 87 million.’

Wang Ling: ‘Is it high enough?’

Zhuo Yi: ‘Should be.’

—

Somewhere during that moment, that music in the background shows up, the one that is played when Wang Ling does something heroic. Lord Thunder wasn’t able to drink his tea?, causing him to spit it out. During that moment, Lord Thunder also experienced an escalating ineffectiveness to not understand. More specifically, Lord Thunder did not understand why his high bid was not enough, and he did not understand that Zhuo Yi as an intermediary was the one that made the 87 million bid.

—

The 3rd highlighted example starts 16 minutes and 35 seconds into the episode. The quote starts before the words, for context:

Zhuo Yi: ‘Master! What did you do, Master! 87 million, and you just chopped it!’

—

During the use of those words, Zhuo Yi was on his knees, one hand on the ground, and another hitting the ground. Zhuo Yi was experiencing an emphasized ineffectiveness of not understanding, wondering why Wang Ling did such a thing.

—

So, you have 3 obvious illustration examples from episode ‘It’s My Round’ to help you use idea ‘Not able not understand’. If you experienced an instigation and/or inadvertency involving an adverse emphasis of ineffectiveness to not understand, then you may contemplationally say ‘Not able not understand’ to identify such experiences. That can help you manage the experience better. Notice how the characters in the animated episode reacted. In the 2nd illustration example, Lord Thunder wasn’t able to continue drinking his tea, causing him to spit it out, and in the 3rd illustration example, Zhuo Yi was on his knees, hitting the ground with one hand, wondering why Wang Ling did such a thing. So, it’s safe to say that an adverse, ineffective emphasis to not understand something may also be bothersome to you.

—

It is now 2:40 PM EST for me. I’m going to close this list now. Next Saturday, when I explain idea ‘Self’, I will use this list as a reference. There’s more information I wanted to type here, but I’ll just continue to the next list, unless I change my mind again. So, if you are there next Saturday, I’ll see you then.
