"Bay window"??
Why do I fell the "Keep on their feet" sounds a little bit like a sexual euphemism...?
What the hell is a "Chevalier," you ask?
A male girdle. The ad tells you that you need a male girdle.
I'm still puzzled by this bay window business...what is it with you 1950s people and your goofy slang?
And just in case you missed the uncomfortable detail...
...the "detachable pouch" has me very worried.

"Bay window" is certainly the oddest way to say a guy is fat I've ever heard.
ReplyDeleteBay windows are those ones that jut out from the house right?
