You have 100+ shirts and they're all white or blue OCBDS with one green thrown in for Miles and still you haven't found the perfect roll.

... you are able to endure endless hours of horrible old movies and tv shows just because some of the cast may be wearing Ivy clothing.  You could care less about the plot.
