Today, an extremely large lady came into the dry cleaners where I work. She puts what I assume is a blanket on the counter to be dry cleaned. I said, "So just the one blanket then?" She replied, "Those are my pants, not a blanket." She was a size 56. FML

Well I dont think she will be coming back in, honestly the biggest pants I have ever seen. I am 6 foot and I could pretty much stand in the waist line of the pants. and we had to charge her 5 dollars more. Needless to say the presser was PISSED. I could not say "one item" because the dry cleaners I work at does not charge the same price for every item ( Like a lot do). I did give her a discount though because I felt so bad.

woah I didn't even know that was a size... I wonder where you would even buy pants that size

Re: Hannah's question (#2): I used to work in a clothing shop where we once had a man come in for pants that were a 66" waist and 26" inseam. He stood all of 5'4" -- literally wider than he was tall. He actually could only buy clothes once day a year, because clothing manufacturers generally pick only one style and size of each garment to make across the whole shop each day (or at least, one sytle per sewer, as it saves time and money by not having to keep changing the patterns all day), and once you get over a certain size, it's simply not worth it to make the ultra-plus sizes more than one day out of the year.

holy sh*t, #25 is the perfect comment in comment history!!! hahahahaha: "No, not F your life, more like F her life. It would be funny if we got a post saying "Today I walked into a dry cleaners. When I handed my item to be cleaned, the cashier asked "So just the one blanket then?". They were my pants. FML"- #25 now THATS a comment. And they're so right! Not your bad! Her bad for being as big as Marlon Brando post godfather weight gain. I will be reading every post for the next 6 months for her FML post. And when I find it, I will slit my wrists in a bathtub because after that kind of joy, there will be nothing left to live for. Well done!! -TronRx

62 - He means pant sizes such as 4, 6, 8, 10, etc. You're talking about pant size in inches. In the other case I'm a size 5, which is smaller than my age, and in inches I'd be a 27-28, which is definitely larger, seeing as I'm 18. Honestly, size 56? That woman is an anomaly.
