6 days into lockdown, I've had an epiphany: pants are a scam

[Recursion]

My life sans pants is remarkably better than my previous, bepantsed life. When we're finally back to normal, we need to re-think this whole pants idea.

1. Pants are evolving under the Republican regime

2. Does this mean I do

Not have to get dressed today? I need to shower first.

Not being in the pool in early morning makes those hot showers longer and longer.

3. Remember when we thought matching socks was a thing? n/t

4. It's still a bit chilly in my area for kilts.

Especially regimental.

I have to go to the grocery. i think I'll wear pants.

5. MFM would approve!

7. If you don't wear pants, they can't catch on fire

This idea may catch on with the Cons.

8. Oh I've known that for decades!

When I used to have my own place, I would romp around naked all day. But learned quickly one should not be naked when deep frying chicken or fish in the kitchen.

12. Ha!

Fortunately we're avoiding that, but our dog does like to pop his face up whenever either of us is on a videoconference.

Had to rewatch it several times...

10. Indian Dhoti, Year-round comfort

Well, OK, I admit wind is annoying.
Cool in summer, warm in winter, infinitely adjustable (nearly); unlike a kilt, won't revel one's uncovered under choice, even in a wind.

11. My wife's uncle had to show me how to tie them for our wedding

Apparently it's like a bow-tie in the states: you tie it once at your wedding and then forget how and have to look it up on Youtube.

13. The internet taught me the basics as I was not born into the tradition

I have been wearing dhoti for ten years now, so I have learned how to deal with different cloths (fabric has personality) and sizes.
I start with the classic pancha kacham front and between the legs rear tucked folds.

Variations in wrapping are many. I overlap at the front and roll the waist band. and usually finish off South Indian style.
My wife says that I attract attention walking around (MA, OR, CA, WA, NC, FL, Uruguay, Portugal, ports, planes, trains, buses and cross-country drives), but I do not see it
It the simple truth that we are all ornaments of other peoples' worlds.

BTW, I am not Hare Krishna
Be well and Hare Krishna are OM

17. You're not the only one.
