September 2005 Archives REPOST: Pant Scam (Not to be confused with PantsCam)September 26, 2005 — Pants makers are pretty smart. They've come up with great ideas for speciality pants. Stain defending, wrinkle free, and breathable are just a few of their ingenious inventions. Well, I have news for these smarty pants (get it?), I'm smarter. Because if I were in charge, I'd combine all these special options to create super pants! I'd call them smarty pants except nobody likes a smarty pants. Or so I'm often told. Sometimes I wake up in the morning and have plenty of time to iron, know I won't make a mess, and am confident that the office will remain at a consistent, seasonally appropriate temperature. More often than not (read: always), not a single one of these conditions are true. So every morning I'm faced with the difficult choice of choosing between ingenious inventions. It's not easy. With super pants, I would have no worries. And not having to worry about your pants goes a long way. There are marketing opportunities here as well. My stain defender pants warn again ironing too often because it wears down the stain repellancy power. I say, what an excellent candidate for the wrinkle free feature. You won't get stains AND you'll never have to iron again!. Make them breathable, and no need to worry about those embarassing sweat stains! |
