In 1988 I was "broad chested" (euphemism for "stocky") and wore size L or XL tshirts. To be fair, I favored a baggier cut, because I was, you know, "broad chested." In other words, a little fat.
At OSCON 2 weeks ago I was taking the size S tshirts that no one else wanted. I know for a God given fact that my body has changed not one whit (same waist, shirt, inseam, foot, and chest size for 20 years) but I've gone from "a little fat" to "really skinny."
It's worse that the picture shows; pre-shrunk cotton has shifted sizes up by one in that same time frame.
Were those sizes adjusted for inflation?
Is this a slam against the comment thread on Hit&Run devoted to your diavlog with Kerry Howley?
No, it proof that the SMOF's are inflitrating the Linux community.
;)
And some people still wonder why nerds can't score with women ....
As a Linux programmer, even I find that disgusting.
Maybe there's a bright side -- each one of those XXL shirts might be holding ten programmers from Bangalore.
(Can the hate -- I'm also a Bangalore-American)

This photo is awesome.
I've been the same ht/wt for 20 years.

See: inflation works!
