This is for all the men in the forum, women optional.
Get dressed in a black t-shirt and go outside.
Spend enough time outside until you are soaked in sweat (for some of us , maybe 5 minutes)
You have to be soaked for your response to be valid.
Now go inside, look at the clock and start to remove your t-shirt!
How long did it take? Did you get it off without help? Did you get "stuck" in it? Did you finally have to rip it off your body? How did it feel to be "smothered", half to death?
You true parkies know what i'm talking about.
This is a test that exemplifies what it's truly like to be a parkie
Few others can "grasp it".

aaaahhhh.. the memories

That was a pretty provocative title for such an not fun exercise. If you want to wear a black t shirt, and work up a sweat ripping it off, or helping someone else to rip theirs off, I can think of a lot better ways to do it. My guess is you can too!

Can anyone think of an alternate suggestion for ol' cs

Just told spouse the gist of the contest, and that Parkies will time themselves to see how long it took.
He said, "That could be days!"
Both of us ROFL.
One care partner gets it.

Thanks, cs.

bought me a t-shirt in Japan. Apparently size XXL barely covers the Molson muscle of certain westerners. I found myself alone, soaked to the gills and attempted to remove my shirt. I swear that i didn't think that i was gonna make it alive !
so beware! we've found another dangerous activity for PWP's

First, LMAO at the "Molson muscle" comment...

I just went through this the other day after completing some yard work. Lets just say that trying to get that damn shirt off was far from sexy...

How about stepping out of a hot shower, or any other pre-dressing activity that leaves perspiration on the body, then trying put put a t-shirt ON! The once roomy, freely-falling garment that usually drops in a graceful and effortless unfolding the moment you get your head and arms through, has become a clinging boa constrictor, wrapping itself into itself in manner that defies your every attempt find bottom of the shirt and tug it free from itself. The curseometer goes into overdrive at that point for me. Sometimes it's enough to make a grown man cry.

Popping in here, its funny I have MS not Parkinson's but I seem to experience similar issues when disrobing.....makes nudist colonies not seem like such a bad idea except for the fact that I'd see myself naked all day!
