    I have really enjoyed my midlife crisis (which looks a little different as a woman): lost 30 lbs, began dressing like a scary executive, got rid of the imposter syndrome, and give very few fucks. It has been delightful.

        No, but her voice is dark like tinted glass.

            You know, I’ll soon have the space to do some car restoration if she’s interested in trading me her MG so she can find a white Chrysler LeBaron generic luxury SUV.

      Please explain the scary executive getup. I am taking notes for my own impending midlife crisis.

        Yeah is this well fitted suit scary, or turtleneck scary. I personally leaned the other way and wear literal rose tinted Lenon glasses now. Fuck it, I tried everything else to see this world as anything other than a shithole filled with idiots, may as well take a metaphor out for a spin

          That is because the world is a shit hole run by idiots. This is the perfect perspective for the scary executive look. Your disgust and impatience is justified - go with it. 😉

          Sigh. I really don’t love the walking-on-my-pants-cuffs trend, especially for dress pants (pictures in the link are worse than this thumbnail).

          As someone about to hit 40, I’m tryyyyyyying to let go of skinny pants, but the above is just so impractical!

          I see that to dress like a scary exec, I must first earn like a scary exec…

            You can also adapt it to your needs. For example, replace the bag with an axe or a limp kitchen towel
