Many years ago, I read about a scientist whose entire wardrobe was made up of clothes that were either white, grey or black. Never had to think hard about what to wear and was never dressed inappropriately.

That’s true for thirty years (USN) I didn’t have to waste brain power deciding what to ware to work, although my Chief thought I didn’t have that much to waste anyway.

What I don’t understand is why the shirt doesn’t look any older now.

Yes. This is why my closet has blue jeans, blue jean skirts and black shirts.

He always buys white shirts, and wears them until they are blue.

Righ. I’m going to go with that one, too. The older you get, the less new shirts you buy.

That whole family seems to wear the same clothes year after year.. As do many cartoon characters.. wonder why that is………..

Same style, same colour but not necessarily the same shirt.
