Today's episode is sponsored by Stitch Fix. I'm a straight dude, and I'm very stereotypical in the sense that I do not like shopping.

I need to shop for clothes all the time, but the process can be so tedious. Lines, going to different stores, picking out clothes, but I don't know what I want.

weren't about to install something that would bite us later. Then the pipes arrived. These were
