When I was in Madison, I had some long underwear from Wintersilk that looked about like that. It didn't really work for really cold (e.g. below -20) weather. But you could wear it in the office without feeling like Nanook of the North. Going back farther, when I was a Freshman in HS, we had wrestling uniforms that had tights under a singlet. Looked pretty dorky even on a wrestling mat.
When watching pro wrestling a few decades ago, you learned the guy wearing tights almost always got his ass kicked. The only worse apparel was the one strap over the shoulder outfit.
You gotta leave some ambiguity about your package, man. You don't divulge, and you sure as heck don't keep everybody updated. The only exceptions are biking, skiing, or with shorts over the top.

Rusty's theory of spandex and tattoos; Roughly 2% of any given population looks good in either spandex or tattoos. The odds of you being in that 2% is nil.

Things that are nearly as ridiculous as the Dolezal family.
Didn't these guys ever wear long underwear before?
Can we all agree that this is worse than shorts?
They just look like those fancy running pants.

There's a life lesson there somewhere.
I thought sweat pants are the pants guys wear when they don't give a crap about what they look like?
Also, fashion issues aside, I'm not wearing pants that don't have pockets.
Well that's stupid.

What's the odds of me being warm?
P.S. Tattoos are always uglier than the skin they cover up.
