I don't give a fuck if it was the Atkins diet that did it, scoliosus or what, but wearing suit coats that are clearly about six sizes too large makes you look ridiculous. Especially when your shoulders aren't anywhere near as broad as those of your coat. Either start working out or get the suit taken in. It's not hard.
And, while you're at it, please make a note not to buy those extra-long coats. They exaggerate your shortness, they do not minimize it. And, again, you end up looking ridiculous. If anything, this is worse. Don't go there.
That is all.

It shouldn't be.
Can you see exactly what in the above rant makes you look worse than the object of the rant? If you would have said this out loud in the presence of the short guy with the ill-fitting suit, guess what. He would have been laughing at you behind your back.*
