Why I don't wear the same shirt everyday

I don't think anybody cares who wears what shirt which day. This is a tech site, not a fashion blog. Can we please just drop this?
Wear whatever the hell you want and quit telling people about it.
But, seriously, I'm not one of those "HN is totally going downhill" people but I'm annoyed by most posts like this. I don't mean ones about fashion and not tech (the fact that this isn't strictly a "tech" site is a discussion for another day) but rather things that would have made perfectly servicable comments becoming their own submissions. I understand why people do it (more exposure for their message, more exposure for their blog) but I really think it dilutes the experience. It dilutes the discussion by forcing you to check multiple places for updates. It dilutes the front page by using multiple slots for the same discussion instead of having as many different discussions as possible. And it dilutes interest by repeatedly shoving the same topic in front of your face.
Before we have another one of these types of replies can we please just stop and think "does this need to be its own submission or is it really a comment in disguise?"
I'm not married yet.
We are humans, we should be diverse, we should seek diversity, it is what makes us alive. Not routine, not being robots that work work work. Work should and has to be fun. And diverse.
Somewhat out of the context of the OP, but I respectfully disagree with that statement. Routine also creates a structure or foundation on which to be creative. Although counterintuitive, in my experience it can be hard to be creative (in a productive way) when you're given total freedom or have to start out from scratch or in a new way every time. You waste your energy trying to explore too many different areas, whereas when you work in structured environment, you can focus on the just the portion where you want to be creative.
Only a Jobs or Zuckerberg level of success gives you a pass to not vary your wardrobe.
