Hammy’s comment made me think of Shuttle Astronaut Mike Mullane’s book “Riding Rockets” He talks about being fitted for the Urine Collection Device. Basically a condom with a tube at the end connected to an external bladder. It’s not something you want to come off during a space walk. When his class of highly competitive astronauts in training went to be fitted for the proper “size” he and all the other egotistical males reached for the largest.
“Putting a flaccid penis in a condom is like shoving toothpaste back in the tube. I finally managed to corral the beast and did a few jiggles to see if the rubber would stay on. It fell to the floor. My testicles might as well have joined it. I had been emasculated. Clearly, I wasn’t going to place first in this competition.”

If you have to wear a HazMat suit, worrying about whether it makes you look fat or not is the least of your worries.

Sorry Hammy. That seems to be the size I always end up with too.

Guys the 6 foot rule is a lot less work . Take off the suit the wrong way and you still have trouble ;-(

I have found “one size fits most” to be overly optimistic

As a hazmat technician I agree with Hammy’s assessment.

Didn’t you ever watch Contagion, RJ? Even Jude Law didn’t look dapper in a hazmat suit!

Heh, the strip right before this in my feed is “One Big Happy,” which also has a “Does this make me look fat?” joke today.

No, no; it’s OK, RJ…the suit has nothing to do with it.
