Posting about the yobbo sheila I saw on the train the other day has reminded me of a couple of other things I've seen in the past few years.
This one was also on the train. If I had to guess, I'd say his pants were so tight because he'd gained weight since he bought them. Of course, he might've just been trying to show off the one obvious thing he had going for him.
This one was at a food-court in a shopping-centre. I guess the lesson here is that the way an item of clothing sits when you put it on and stand in front of the mirror is not necessarily how it's going to sit after you've been wearing it around for a while.

Great little sketches, by the way, Alex. I can't stand those men on trains who angle their knees 180 degrees. Women on train naturally expected to inward turn their knees and take up as little space as possible. Grrrrrrr
That's one of the things that strides have over skirts though, isn't it Squib? No matter where I am, I can spread my legs with the best of them.
… um … hmmmm …
I had a woman intruding on my space at a parent evening the other week. She had her legs crossed and her stupid foot was taking up one third of my already small leg area. I couldn't concentrate on the speeches (which were boring and condescending anyway), I was so wound up. I wanted to kick her
Maybe it would have livened things up a little if you had kicked her? Besides, if leg-room is as scarce over there as you say, you can't let people get away with pinching yours like that. Use your superior size to your advantage!
