It's like the heavens have parted and divine light is shining down, illuminating the unknown.
Thanks Dr. Smartypants. I've always wondered what that line is. Now that you told me it, I remember that all I can here is "Well, Simon garble garble garble near miraculous."
And now I'll know it for future trivia.

So today I'm wearing pants...and pants? Well, I might not be wearing pants, but I'm definitely wearing pants. Unless I'm not. And actually, I'm not wearing pants either, I'm wearing a skirt. But I'm definitely wearing pants. I think.
Are pants specifically male or female or both?
But I don't like to use the word trousers. It sounds so...tweedy. And I HATE slacks. It's not a pretty word. Such a harsh A. So I usually refer to them by what they are. Jeans, cords, khakis, cargos.
Need food. And chocolate.

I solve it by not wearing pants with my pants. It's quite obvious, to me anyway, what pants I mean.

Generally pants = male underwear. But women often use it, just because it is such a great word.

woohoo!
I'm meeting my crazy aunt for lunch in a few minutes. She tells me she'll have the bottle of wine on the table when I get there! She's so much fun. The youngest girl of 8 daughters and number 11 of 13 kids. She's the wild child.
I wonder if I'll be able to drive home?

okay, i understand most of the people here live in the south of england.
i am about to make a statement based upon personal experience which i am prepared to be corrected upon by anyone who thinks i am incorrect, i may well be.
The use of pants as a word for underpants is not an overly big thing here in the north! and pants do kind of refer to overgarments on ones legs for male or female (and not exclusively superheros whith a superman dress sense) Undergarments can be one of the following: boxers, y'ees (or y fronts), knickers or those string things (yes, i know they're called thongs) i may have missed summat out, but ...
now, i personally do use the word pants as both a swear word and as a descriptive word, but not overly regularly.
anyhow!
