I can't believe saggy pants are still hip. I remember them when I was 10-12.

"Delcambre town council unanimously passed the ordinance earlier this week making it a crime to wear trousers that show underwear."

Not that I'm not all for this...but, since when does showing underwear = exposing private parts?

What about plumber's crack, you gonna call the cops on the electrician when he's done wiring your house? What about that cute bartender with the pink thong? I have no beef with her.

hey, another stupid law.

6/15/2007 8:56:24 AM

Every time they outlaw something that a certain sub-culture does to be different think that one of these days your group is going to be targeted.

If they outlaw saggy pants then only outlaws will wear saggy pants

6/15/2007 10:06:39 AM

what do they define as saggy anyway?

6/15/2007 10:10:06 AM

I think we should allow people to make jackasses of themselves. That way it's easier to look around a room and know who the jackasses are.

i wear saggy jeans. beats the nut crushing emo deal people were wearing a few months ago. or the "D&G" asshuggers someone got for sale in classifieds.

im surprised the nazis in cary townhall have not caught up to the trend in these regularions yet.

6/15/2007 11:44:01 AM

here in America we have freedom of expression, so the Queen can't be all hating on our style

6/15/2007 11:59:48 AM

so, if a female was wearing trousers and her whale tail showed, would she get charged?
