Undies, Britches and Gluteus Maximus Galore!
I walk up the sidewalk towards school, not the most cheerful of places, but for some reason, I’m in a good mood today so I could care less. My toast didn’t land butter-side down when I woke up and I had enough money to stop at the gas station on the corner for a cup joe. The sun is up early, shining bright rays onto my face and the temperature is just right. I let out a content sigh as I open the door and parade into school with my fellow students. But there, bending over in front of me, is the most horrid and atrocious scene. A student, someone I don’t know, has dropped their agenda in the hallway and leaned down to pick it up, revealing to me and almost half of the school population their ghastly (although not entirely) unmentionables.
I was outraged! Not only had my perfect and seemingly pleasant day been completely demolished, but I was left with this terrifying image in my head. I left the location of the accident, somewhat dazed, and sauntered off to my class. Instead of focusing on my class work, I sat there, staring aimlessly into space, wondering why on earth someone enjoys flashing their undies to the whole entire school.
Honestly guys, if you’re going to flash someone you’re underpants, why do you act angry when someone says something about it? That’s like chewing up your food and spitting it out on the table and getting upset when your friends abandon you. Gross right?
And it can’t be too comfortable. Guys are forced to waddle around the school like a pregnant woman to keep their pants at least strapped to their legs. I understand that girls sometimes go to extreme measures to spice up their look, but really guys, are you that into wearing your pants below your knees in order to look “sexy?”
So next time you feel like letting your pants sag way below your underwear, maybe consider that you might be ruining someone’s day and disrespecting not only yourself, but the school as a whole. Have some pride, boys. And for the last time, pull up your pants!
This is so true! It’s kind of entertaining to watch guys waddle around school though. I’m glad somebody was able to finally say something about this.
I don’t know why people are so offended by sagging pants. If you don’t like it, don’t look. End of story.
Its hard not to when your underwear is more prevalent then your pants. It’s just a stupid trend.
What about the girls that have muffin tops and too tight of jeans??
i used to go here, everyone sags and so do i…. this article is simply put, retarded, no one wheres there pants under there knees, and no one gets there day changed from good to as terrible as this person is making it sound by someone sagging. get over it
ok look at it from the guys perspective he prolly got his pants as a gift and they were a little big not to mention he doesnt have a job to go buy a belt so get over it.
Well what about all the guys that wear belts and then have their pants to their knees? Its just stupid. But it is a trend; it will probably change in a few years like bell-bottoms and tye-dye shirts.
But the girls that wear their pants down to their kness are also gross.
I go here now, and I do see kids everyday waddling around with their pants below there knees.
Bodangles: If you are going to comment, at least use the proper form of words like “wears” which is not spelled “wheres” when they are physically on someone’s body. Also try using proper form of “their,” which should have been in the possessive form, “there” means you are saying something such as “Look over there!” And finally, and the reason we don’t get over it is because it makes you look like a slob, which reflects poorly on our generation. If you have a problem with it, then you get over it.
**And finally, the reason.
-My bad.
First of all, most of the people that sag like that always have shorts on underneath their jeans. Second of all, if something as simple as seeing someone sag ruins your entire day, then maybe you should just never leave your house. People aren’t going to listen to you whine and complain about every little problem you have about every stupid and insignificant thing so just stop. People like you ruin MY day.

you guys are ridiculous. let ppl live their lives, you aren’t their parents you can’t tell them how to dress. and ohh this isn’t english class if you cant stand a little unformal english then go somewhere else. thnx
ohh and btw sagging doesnt make you look like a slob i’ve seen plenty of ppl wear their clothes at the right level and still look trashy. You’re clothes may reflect who you are but not as much as you’re personality does. jay-z, lil wayne, chris brown, they all sag do they look like slobs to you!! didnt think so. this was a stupid post it should of never been published sorry.
