1. pants that make noise when you walk.
:)

I don't like 'em, myself, and haven't worn any since I was about ten.

3. those are cute. I never liked them.
I always liked the broader cord corduroys on my ex boyfriend who used to wear them in his skater phase. I always thought corduroys gave your legs extra width, not the best thing for most women. To get the soft feel of corduroys without the bulk, I always liked velour pants and still wear velour to this day.

4. A fine bootay by the looks of it.
I wore cords incessantly in high school. You may guess I was a band nerd. You would be correct.

10. The ability to start a camp fire by putting kindling in your crotch.
We were always prepared in scout troop 520.

13. Love 'em
Edited on Thu Jul-17-08 04:39 AM by Awsi Dooger
I have maybe 6 pair, 4 pleated and 2 without. Incredibly comfortable. They're my sturdy winter standby in Las Vegas and I hate it when it turns too warm to wear them. I have no idea what anyone is talking about, with noise.

Yeah, let's be concerned it isn't the '80s. That always busts me up, people petrified they might be seen as out of fashion. :rofl:

18. 1981
Meaning you are also being spared the Reagan Administration, Sheena Easton, and some other atrocities, so don't complain.
