These crack me up. Reminds me a bit of a conversation thread on h2g2 where people changed the words ‘love’ or ‘heart’ in song titles to ‘knob’ (though I think your pants titles are much cleverer). I was surprised to see that it’s still going after five years – well, up to last July anyhow.

Gaurav-
Thanks! I’m glad I could share these pants with you.
jen-
Nice pants.
az-
I hadn’t seen the knob bit before. But it’s pretty funny. Even without pants.
panted maypole-
I love the Walt pants. (And your pantsy pun.)
Nerevise-
Tolstoy sure could have written a lot of words about pants.
Dragonfly-
I’m not familiar with those books, but perhaps I should be. Thanks for the pants tip.
Jen-
Sometimes I just run with the pants.

I’ve just found your blog, following a link from Azahar’s site and just nearly fell off my chair laughing at this pants post. Good thing I’m wearing loose pants, or they might have split!

Oh and I should have added that this post is particularly funny if you’re British, because pants to us are not ‘trousers’ but the garment worn under trousers!

erica lee-
Lovely pants.
truce-
Oh, it’s nice to hear that I made you laugh. At whichever type of pants you prefer. (And thanks so much from stopping in!)

I have a male friend who wears both briefs and boxers, though I could not begin to speculate on whether this is simultaneously.
His girlfriend teases him he is ‘bi-pantal’
