« Previous Sleep with One Eye Open, PANTS | Shoot, I Think I’m on the Wrong Line Next »

To sag ones pants is to remain vigilant to any disturbance in the force that keeps them precariously balanced around your person. I wouldn’t slip a Sacajawea dollar into my pocket if I found it on the sidewalk, much less try to tote my Fiji Water around on my ass.

Lookin’ like a fool with your pants on the ground…
damn you I was going to say that
Same!
The saddest bit is that he’s wearing a belt AND the new jeans from Japan that are deigned to look like they’re sagging even though they’re up at your waist.
Massive multiple fail.
ditto
that guy really sets the bar a lot higher for ‘lookin’ like a fool with your pants on the ground’ – or does it lower the bar because we talk general ridiculousness here?
@Frank
We all think that.
Said it before, I’ll say it again – the skin tight white polyester leisure suits of the 1970s are far, far preferable to this!
I’ll say it with you! Give me the polyester leisure suits! Don’t know where this pants-around-the-ankle trend started, much less why, but please make it stop!
It started in prison. Busted drug dealers serving time would be given orange prison garb way too big for them. The waist tie cord would be removed along with shoe laces to prevent suicide or murder. They brought the “look” back with them to show they had served time.
I have never understood this trend and now I understand it less
It started in prisons (though of course people want to deny it, but it did) – as a way for men to advertise they were “available” for “relations” with other male prisoners. Baggy pants = easy access.
Wonderful… an impression EVERYONE wants to give, right?
Geeze…
Actually it did begin in prisons, but not as a reference to “relations.” The trustees would give the prisoners poorly-fitting clothing.
I dunno. I like the easy access explanation better. It’s such an incredibly stupid trend that it totally deserves such an em-bare-ass-ing origin (see what I did there?).
It’s true about “relations”. It’s called “flagging”, and it’s big in the gay community as a way to pick up a quick date.
I personally consider anyone who wears a hat on sideways a complete arseknob no matter what they’re wearing below the waist.
I’d prefer guys wearing tight jeans. This is ridiculous. It’s kind of disgusting. I’d actually go up to the guy and yell at him to fix his pants. If he resorts to violence, then so be it.
The really sad part to me is, what’s the point of the belt he’s wearing if he doesn’t cinch it up to make the pants actually fit??
I use the belt to cinch their knees together when they get aggressive. Funny AND effective.
Good one. Will save that useful tidbit for later.
Is he wearing underwear?
The sad part is while it is a attempt to mimic prison garb. i.e. look like a hard case, unfortunately with them that low it will make him waddle like he crapped in his drawers.
Actually, the baggy pants thing did start in prison, but not in order to advertise availability. Maximum security prisoners are not allowed to have belts and prison-issue clothing is not usually tailored to fit. It became street-wear when friends/relatives/fellow gang-bangers adopted the look to show solidarity with the incarcerated….
A successful gang-banger would have enough money to “live large” and, thereby, put on a few pounds. If he went to “the joint” for some heinous thing he’d spend time in the yard and gym working out. So, when he got out of jail he’d be lean and (presumably) mean. But… his “pre-joint” clothes would be too big for him. This look says “Hey! I was dangerous enough to have gone to jail. And, now I’m fit enough to be even more dangerous.” (Mostly, it says “I’m an idiot!”)
Where was this photo taken? It looks like Brooklyn, NY.
PANTS ON DA GROUND
Canadians have been using $1 and $2 coins for decades, and our pants hardly ever fall down on their own.
I’m pretty sure this is the same guy I’ve had come into my store a few times. That would make the city Chicago, and judging from the Macy’s bag and look of the sidewalk, I’m going to say his bare ass was on the Mag Mile.
the sad part is, he prolly dont even notice his pants are that low
I’m pretty sure that at this point, you can just say that he’s wearing a dress.
hey people slow down, this is a GOOD thing..now when he robs a 7-11 he wont be able to run, and with one hand trying to hold up that sleeping bag he calls pants. it will be much easyer for the clerk to jump over the counter and beat the shit out of him
