Clothing Companies Are Now Catering to the “Dad Bod” Look
The term “dad bod” has been around for a few years now. That’s where you’ve still got some muscle tone, but don’t shy away from pizza and beer. And now clothing companies have started to cater to that look.
According to a new report, more and more men’s t-shirts are tighter up top to accentuate your chest and show off the guns . . . but looser around the waist to make room for a gut. So, kind of like the opposite of a “slim fit.”
Brands like True Classic tees are specifically going after the dad bod demographic. They’re marketing their shirts to guys who feel like they’re between sizes . . . where XL is too baggy up top, but a large is too tight around the waist.
How Much Halloween Candy Would You Have to Eat to Overdose?
This is good info for anyone who wants to eat the maximum amount of Halloween candy without DYING. Yes, it’s technically possible to overdose on it. But it would never happen, because it’s nearly impossible to eat enough all at once.
Someone came up with a formula that tells you how many fun-sized pieces of candy you could eat in one sitting based on what a lethal dose of sugar is. It’s 13.5 grams of sugar for every pound of body weight.
For a 180-pound person, 5.4 pounds of straight sugar would do it. That’s how much you’d get in 262 pieces of fun-sized candy, or 1,627 pieces of candy corn.
You can calculate your own candy limit with this formula: Multiply your body weight by 13.5. Then divide by 9.3 grams, which is the average amount of sugar in a fun-sized candy bar.
