At least you wore underpants Calvin.
A couple of weeks ago, I had a giant rip where the ass meets the thigh. Like, big enough my arm fit through. I didn’t realize they were ripped until I was halfway to work.
I somehow managed to keep track of line of sight on everyone and sit down whenever I thought someone might notice and made it through a full shift without anyone noticing.
I mentioned it to my coworker the next day and they had no idea.
That's what's called skill that there
Fear of this specific thing is why I'm neurotically over-prepared.
In my van I have a hanging rack with a change of clothes for casual, business casual, and formal occasions. If something happens, I've got spares.
It lead to me being a crazy person when it comes to preparedness. Full set of mechanics tools, a bunch of other tools, first aid kit/O2/AED, fire extinguisher, multiple backup batteries, food and water for 3 days, bedroll, compressed air tank for filling tires, and a hidden safe with valuables.
It's like a little hobby to help fight my anxiety. And it's come in handy a few times, so I guess in the end it's less destructive than other things.
Later: pants with rips in then become fashionable somehow.

Hello fellow Calvin and Hobbes fans!
About this community and how I post the comic strip… The comics are posted in chronological order on the day (usually) they were released. Posting them to match the release date adds a bit of fun and nostalgia to match the experience of reading them in the newspaper for first time. Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. It really sucked when I missed a day. Only years later, when I got the books was I able to catch up on the missed strips.
Calvin and Hobbes is a daily American comic strip created by cartoonist Bill Watterson that was syndicated from November 18, 1985, to December 31, 1995. Commonly cited as "the last great newspaper comic",[2][3][4] Calvin and Hobbes has enjoyed broad and enduring popularity, influence, and academic and philosophical interest… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calvin_and_Hobbes
