Only if Brewer's Flop has kicked in

So...

Do the police carry around little Bane stickers and stick them on anyone with saggy pants?

Ah, but now that pant-wearing is regulated, how do you spot said gentlemen of leisure amongst the crowd now?

What a silly question. The nature of a gentleman means that he'll always be easily identified. Qualities to look for include:

- an impeccable taste in clothes, women, music, food and drink
- an effortless style and grace in his bearing, words and actions
- a sense of humor with just the right touch of refinement when in coarse company, and just the right touch of coarseness when in refined company
- a wisdom that comes from a life both learned and lived

You wouldn't confuse a child's crayon scrawlings with a Rembrandt simply because the former was framed, would you?

Ragamuffins with pulled-up pants are still ragamuffins. They've simply taken the first step toward becoming something more.

I duly stand corrected. My deepest apologies to you, sir.

Wait, wasn't this basically the plot of Footloose?

This seems like a bad idea cause freedom of expression and what not, even if it looks bad that being said I wear skinny jeans but because they're 1 inch too big around the waist (being a small person I have trouble finding things in my size) you can see my underwear when I sit down so I

guess I sag a bit too (not so much when standing though).

I'm not sure that Bane would care about what some U.S town thinks of his saggy pants.

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

Though seriously, I'm not sure what to think. On one hand, a rather stupid fashion is getting removed.

On the other hand, social rights are being jeopardized, freedom of expression and all that.

Have you never heard of a belt? Even when my pants fit perfectly I still wear one.

In Canada they... ration... belts?

Am I doing it right?

No... it needs to be completely unrelated.

Like:

"You know they ration Healthcare in Canada. "

Yeah, it helps but if I tighten it too much the jean's waist wrinkles too much and it feels uncomfy.

Whats really silly are baggy pants with belts.

Next they should ban the skinny jeans (on guys that is)

You poor uncultured person

That, dear boy, is the great Kenneth Williams, 'flamboyant' star of the 'Carry On..' film franchise.

Incidentally, that is my favourite picture of him. It suggests sexual mania.

Another town I will not visit. Not for the pants thing, but simply because they identify as a parish. In this day and age.

I think that says a lot about your attitude in general.

And it's extremely creepy/crazy looking.

That's a bummer for my buddy. His pants keep sagging down even when he wears suspenders........though it might be the belly.

Maybe "Badasses" should start a new trend of leaving their zippers down.

...But then my buddy would be guilty of that, too.

I like that you managed to get the words "bummer" and "badasses" into a reply to a thread about low flying trousers

Wow......I did not even realize that.

Oh, and:


Bane says, "NO Sagging!!!"

Er...you know at least one state doesn't have counties, but parishes right?

This is bad news for the plumbing business.
