Poppy, only if I go commando. Michelle, it was a horrific sight. BE Earl, your knees might freeze and fall off. Stacy, when I was in Saint Louis, I wore them year round, too. Robin, we'll see if it shows up in the innernet. Meg, undignified and hilarious! Elizabeth, hahaha -yes.

I imagined the entire scenario on grainy, outdated quality 27″ television. (;

I had something similar happen last week – I was wearing tights under a long skirt with boots (it’s cold here in Maryland). The elastic in the tights decided it was done, thank you very much, and started rolling down over my (um, well padded) lower abdomen, and as if that weren’t bad enough, it was bringing my undies along for the ride. I was walking from the train station to the parking lot and there was nowhere to duck in to fix the problem. They were heading south towards my knees by the time I got to the shelter of my car. How undignified.

I gotta say, I would have videotaped that. I hope someone did.

My husband wears shorts year round and we are in Indiana. He has the same problem…

I wish I could get away with wearing shorts year-round. Well, I could do it. But days like today would be awfully cold.

Pants that fall down is your costume?? I personally think that is a genius idea…

You’re totally cute. Yes, YOU ARE. And know what’s even cuter? How you don’t think you’re cute.

Ashleigh, well, to be technical, I don't even own pants. Only shorts. Which are short pants. Beth, I don't think that word means what you think it does! Sheila, I hope not. Then they'd see me sneak outside to pee in the front yard every night at 3 AM. Whit, you know you owe Britt royalty fees now, right? Iddly, no. No, you don't! Hello, if James had been there, he would have grabbed the damn TV! SciFi Dad, mmmmm, Alexis. Sybil, see above. Dave2, this is why pants and shorts are evil. Heather, just for you, babe. NYCWD, they have a mind of their own. Kapgar, this is true! Turnbaby, do they have little spikes that just stick in your flesh and won't come out? Radioactive Tori, I'm sure one of the neighbors was peering out their curtains looking. Grant, do you really go with #1? That looks dreadful! Kris, if Britt had been there, it would have been on video. Finn, no, you're lucky! Britt, I'm cutting out the middleman. Jay, I've thought about it. My wife won't let me. Ever. Fiwa, would you want them to? Faiqa, cute? I may be many things, but cute is not one of them. Susan, aha! Boxer briefs, actually. Twinkie, good point. Then it would have been particularly hilarious. Stephanie, yeah, I tighten it until I turn blue. Popping Bubbles, I have no shame. Maman, ew. I can't understand men who go commando - it's just stupid. Crystal, I'll email you pictures of my butt. Blondefabulous, I hate the concept of going commando, so don't worry about that! Heather B, yeah, but luckily as a woman you have hips, so that slows the fall. Poppy, maybe that will be my costume, hm? Hilly, how is that cute??!? Mari, one of my neighbors is cool (Hi Ron). The rest are old and kind of cranky.
