Bossini Pants
-
I've been wearing this certain pair of khaki pants for some time, now. Last week, though, i had a horrible experience. I was at work, just chatting with a coworker, when i felt something poking my side.
I slipped my left thumb into my belt area, and got a nasty cut on the joint of my thumb and my palm. upon going to the restroom, I found something sharp pointing out of the area of the belt. you know, the part where there are two sheets of cloth to make the belt area thicker than the rest of the pants. i pulled out the metal point, and i saw that it ended in a right angle, so i turned the thing and kept pulling it out. eventually i got the whole object out, and it was actually a textile staple, about half an inch in height.
i got goosebumps all over because i was paranoid about the fact that i could have been poked with a half-inch of staple on my side.
Not that I'm going to stop wearing those pants, but it was a horrible experience. It made me cold all over thinking that I've been wearing the pair for at least a year by now. On the other hand, i'm also grateful that the staple stayed flat against the two layers of cloth before last week.

We had an 18 inch (about 24cm) upholstery needle in our new leather sofa.
Thankfully we followed the directions and used the "oil" wipes on it before sitting on it, otherwise my partner would have had a serious hole in him because it was between the 2 back cushions on his side.
