Baby suit

I walked into a clothing store and picked a suit I liked. It needed some alteration, so their tailor walked up to help me. He was a 70-year-old Italian and he took one look and said in his Italian accent, "Bebby suit."

I asked him what he said and soon I understood he was saying baby suit. He said, "The suit is too small, you need to have enough room to move around." He was right.

Whether it's our clothing or other purchases (cars, for example), we need to realize how big we are, how old we are, etc.

No one likes to be told they're wearing a bebby suit.
