Saggy pants are obscene

[StanleyVanBuren]

Not sure we need laws against them, but I'm not exactly opposed to this either:

Geez, that could be a big money maker for the city here. :eusa_doh:
$250 seems kind of low to me.

I think it would be $500, actually. The Daily Mail converted it to GBP since they are a British newspaper.

Still not high enough unless you include a kick in the pants.

You might lose track of your foot.

i'm not sure i'd class it as an obscenity, but i will never understand why anyone ever thought that having half their undwerwear showing and their jeans permanently on the brink of collapse looked cool. genuinely one of the worst fashion trends in recent memory.

I'll wear my combat boots.

I always get this insane desire to go up and just yank 'em all the rest of the way down. Never done it, but I can dream! lol

There are quite a few young women who could also stand to pull up their pants.

Hi Folks,

Many of the defendants who come into my court wear their pants this way and they are generally the macho gangsta types. I often wonder if they knew the origins of this practice, would they continue dressing as they do.

You see, I have been told by some very credible former inmates that the practice of wearing one's pants low around the hips began years ago in prison---as a signal of one's availability.

You've been told right. I doubt they understand but if the defendants get thrown into the can, they will find out soon enough. :eusa_doh:

I like to watch competitive skateboarding: the skateboarders are graceful, agile and athletic, yet seem to have some modesty in their attitudes. I just wish the modesty would extend to their clothing.

I actually saw this happen three times...the victim gets embarrassed (obviously) and tries to run after the perpetrator without realizing everything's in a tangle around his ankles, and ends up flailing around on the ground like a fish out of water, with the crowd (each time was in a shopping mall) laughing and clapping and pointing. If you do want to give it a try, the flailing and flopping part leaves you plenty of time for a getaway.

I'm told it's more fun to see such depantsing done by a Marine in full dress blues "accidentally" just "happening" to step on the dragging cuff...lol

The transition from "what [unmentionable] did this to me?!" to "Umm, oops..." must be a Kodak moment for sure, for me it's just gotta remain an amusing mental picture... There was some comment about this over on the LawDog Files blog a while back, which is my source.

Just a couple days ago, I saw a young man wearing baggy pants with the top below his bottom. Unfortunately, I'd decided to drive sans AC and had the windows open, so I had to stifle a short, barking laugh.

. . . For a while.

First they came for those wearing saggy pants and I said nothing because mine weren't saggy.
Then they came for those wearing enormous T-shirts and I said nothing because I only wore collared shirts that fit.
Then they came for me because I wore a fedora and there was no one to speak up for me...

Ha ha,just kidding,go ahead and throw the saggy buggers in the can!

Reminds me when I was at my high school (visiting) and one of the students bent down ot pick something up. His underwear was showing and I said, "you do know your underwear is showing, right?". "Yes" he said. "And you don't mind that?" says I. He didn't respond. But I am not one to complain about baggy pants. I wore them myself. I wore my gym shorts to the point where my underwear was showing. I know how it is see?
