It must be noted that Kalshane is football player sized and not built to door-scale
I appreciate the vote of confidence, but since there hasn't been a drastic change in my size or the size of doorframes in the last 10 years, one would think I'd have adapted by now.
I have this weird thing where I catch the pockets of dress pants on the arms of work chairs or door handles. I don't get it either, but the pants-selling industry is happy.
I've done this before. Happened once with a brand new pair of pants, too. Was not happy. I've also managed to catch the the opening on my sleaves just below the cuff on numerous objects, alternately ripping the shirt or sending the button flying.
I catch my backpack straps on door handles all the time, and the other day I caught my sweater on two different screws sticking out of two different walls.
But that was not my point in posting. Nilly! I just talked to someone on the phone named Nily! But she pronounced it like you do. Fun.
I have a pair of wide-leg dress pants and I keep managing to trip on them.
From MSNBC, a fairly extensive guide to spring movies: [link]
Tripping on skirts on stairs -- I do that a fair amount, because I never remember that the skirts will do that until I reach the stairs -- they're fine on level ground.
I just ogled mens' pockets on the way back from the microwave. So many variations! Does the vertical opening pocket catch much?
I have a pair of cargo pants with velcro on the pocket flaps, and strange things are constantly getting stuck to the velcro (and my butt.) Once I almost walked out a store with a pair of socks attached to my ass.
I ruined a nice leather jacket by bounding up a flight of stairs and catching one of the belt loops on the handrail. Tore a huge rip up that side of the jacket.
Does the vertical opening pocket catch much?
Yeah, sometimes.
The most annoying thing for me about such pockets is that twice I've had my wallet fall out of my front pocket while at a movie theater - both times I was wearing pants with the nearly vertical opening....
Someday I will remember that ankle-length skirts with lace trim on the hem should not be worn with the boots that have speed-lacing hooks. Someday I will remember this when I am getting dressed in the morning, not when I have managed to hobble myself while walking down the hallway.
Don't forget I'm talking about situations in which I've already moved your body into the desired position. From then on, can't you tell that when I say "pivot" I mean "recreate that kinaesthetic feeling"?
OK I probably would know I had not pivoted. But you know, I can forget how to recreate a kinaethetic feeling three minutes after I have been through it. To learn any kind of body move I have to do it repeatedly ten times in a row five or six days in a row. Then I won't forget it, as long as I don't skip more than two days.
I suspect the particular person you are talking about had "I'm never wrong" mentallity. But with pivots in particular I know how it could happen with me. I went through a thing where I had problems in particular pivoting into a specific position that was uncomfortable for me. So I had to look to make sure I did it. And then as soon as I looked away I pivoted back without noticing it. It took me a while to learn that if stopped hurting I was out of position. The problem is that I have a pretty high pain tolerance, so I had not noticed that it hurt when I did it or that it had stopped until I went through the "You are not pivoting" "Yes I am" "No you are not". Tt took the instructor and me until the third session of figure out what was going on. Also I did a lot punishment pushups until the instructor figured out that I was not intentionally lying. (The instructor was an ex-marine.)
