personally If I have to look at your boxers and read your brand name on them I think you should get paid for advertising. Not really I just do this

Just buy a belt... nobody wants to smell your dirty underwear no matter how "COOL" you think it looks.

You know you can buy the pants in different lengths, right?

I'm generally not one to make snap judgements based on appearance, but whenever I see someone with their pants hanging low the first thing I think is "dumbass".

amish

Bingo. Dumbass who doesn't know better.

lol, lemme try this again. i dont wear my pants low in the sense they are falling off my ass. what i mean low in that the cuff is right above the ground. i wear my pants regularly, around the waist. if the pants are large on me, i wear a belt.

Personally, I would have fired your a$$. I hate sloppy unprofessional dressers in the workplace. Well, maybe not hate them, but definitely the style.

I can't stand it when people wear their pants low. It appears they're going out of their way to acheive a "look". And the look is stupid! It's the same people that shave their heads, wear wife-beater t-shirts, wear baseball caps sideways, have tattoo bands around their arm, etc. People think they're just expressing themselves, but they're actually going out of their way to conform.

I work for a small business and have minimal dealings with the public/customers and the dress is casual.

"Going out of my way to achieve a look" is not my purpose, I just wear them like I do because it's comfortable and I can't stand to have my pants worn up. I'm the last person who would care what others think about me and how I dress.

Inmates aren't allowed to where belts so consequently their belts sag.

Great roles models.

Actually it was originally started by male prison b1tches - they wore their pants low like that to show they were "available".

It's just something the "thugs" don't like to talk about much, for some reason.

There's a difference between not wearing your pants at a gayly high level, and looking like a moron. If your pants are 5 inches below your bellybutton, and your pockets are hardly even on your ass, then you are a moron.

Hey. I shave my head. Used to wear it long - past my shoulders - but I got tired of spending so much money on shampoo. Now a once-over with a bar of soap'll do my head just fine. :)

Hate the sagging-pants thing, though - as well as the upside-down visors, sideways hats, etc. BS. Why do young males want to look like thug wannabe gangsters? Talk about crippling your professional career for no good reason.

I wear my pants properly; with the waist around my WAIST, not down by my thighs.

Only punk kids with poor manners and bad upbringing dress like hoodlums.

Pants are made with a thing called a waist, it belongs on your waist, not halfway down your ass.
When I see sagging pants showing me someones underwear/ass I see someone in need of the ultimate wedgie!
I'm talking about pulling them dirty shorts up over the top of the little pin-heads nugget. This "show your ass fashion style" originated in the ghetto, you know. It started because of all the hand-me-down pants given to younger siblings.
So, unless you are the youngest of 12 brothers and sisters living in a 2 room ghetto apartment, with your crack-ho momma and your dad is in the pen (if in fact he is your real dad) we don't want to know that you are wearing your dirty underwear inside out. So a word of advise to you, buy pants that fit, or learn how to use one of them new fangled, hi-tech gizmos called a belt! Oh yea, and if you do insist on showing your underwear/ass, make sure you have clean shorts on and for god's sake wear clean skivvies! :D

OK, time to start the petition to get my member title changed to "PicMonkey" or something related to pics. :p

BTW - not to set off a search, but there's no need to ask for what I already have. ;)
