You're not kidding!  The whole point of bangles is that they're supposed to be loose and emphasize the smallness and delicacy of your (shapely, feminine) wrists...not clamped around like a zip-tie.  Even if this slob wore the tire from a Mack truck as a bracelet, its hammy arm wouldn't look human. Edit to add, 'cuz I'm a vintage nerd: Genuine bakelite jewelry is from the 1920s-1930s.  So when the dumb slob is talking about its "stretch" bracelets it means that it bought some rare vintage necklaces/bracelets, broke them apart and strung the components on elastic cord to make something that would fit on its fat arm (thereby ruining a nice piece a human lady could wear).  It also crows about finding bangles that have a 3" diameter that (barely) fit on its fat wrist.  Er...those 3" bracelets were made to be worn on the upper arm! (I'm sure people have seen photos of ladies wearing them with those slinky 1920s sleeveless dresses).
