Quote from: www.nopantsday.com FAQ
So I can wear a skirt instead? or “Hey, no problem, I was gonna wear a dress anyways!”
You’re very clever, but you’re missing the point. Articles of clothing like skirts, shorts, kilts, and dresses don’t count, because people are encouraged to revel in the absence of pants, and not replace pants with other clothing. The point is to relax and enjoy the humor inherent in people not wearing pants. A good rule of thumb is to pretend like you were going to wear pants, and then just fail to put them on.

Sounds like a plan to me. I'd walk around in my boxers 24/7 if I could.

If I didn't have work, I would, but seeing as I work in an office, that's the best I can do.  When I leave work, the shorts will come off.

Actually there's about 2 hours during tomorrow where I have to wear a tuxedo.  Although I would find it tremendously hilarious to sit in the orchestra without pants I'm not so sure the conductor would share the same feelings.

I wear pants when I want to wear pants and I don't wear pants when I don't want to wear pants.

I am not wearing any pants right now. This is not because of this "holiday" It is because I am a lazy dude.

I'm not going to lie, I'm tired of joke holidays. I only really endorse International High Five Day because there is just something so perfect about high fiving a perfect stranger walking past you and then going on with your lives.

But I don't have any work or anything tomorrow.  I'd basically just be hanging around my house in boxers, and I do that EVERY DAY.  The kilt would at least make things interesting.

On the topic of joke holidays: At my school on Wednesday we celebrated National Finger Bang Day. I had ever heard of it before then. Apparently during that day you are allowed to make a gun with your fingers, point them at somebody, and then say "BANG!" to shoot them. They then have to keel over and die.

It was the most fun I have ever had on a joke holiday. However, most are not this awesome and they really need to stop.

Edit: Goddamn I have posted a ridiculous amount over the past two days.

Dude. You have a finger bang day. At an all boys school. I just don't know what to say? Tell me you've got tossed salad sundays or something.

I mean, couldn't you have called it finger pistols or something?

Most of the time I could pull this off.  But I'm to go to a restaurant tomorrow, that will make it tricky/interesting/fun.

Hey, I didn't name it. Nor did it stat at my school. Go yell at these (http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=5722997890) fucks.

Though I suppose we could get a tossed salad sunday started up though.

Joke holidays very rarely interest me. This is mainly because I get bored a lot and so do stupid things anyway. Like deciding to affect an Irish accent for a day. Or dressing up like a ninja and scaring my brother. What I am basically saying is that I find my own life so amusing that I have no need for joke holidays.
Title: Re: May 2 is No Pants Day!

If I recall correctly, you work in a call center.

Please tell me this was on a day that you worked.  That would be amazing.
Title: Re: May 2 is No Pants Day!
Post by: Jimmy the Squid on 01 May 2008, 23:25
No sorry. At the call centre our calls get monitored and my supervisors know that I am not at all Irish.

It was however when I worked in a liquor store and yeah I was on shift that day. For some reason I had to do open til close (someone got sick? I don't remember) and I was bored out of my mind so yeah. Irish. I had great fun with the people who just pass through and even more fun when talking to the regulars. I also won ten dollars later that evening when I went to the pub and made a bet with my best friend that not only could I convince his mates (whom I hadn't previously met) that I was Irish but the group of backpackers from Dublin that we played pool with as well.

Then there was the day I decided to affect a Hungarian/Romanian accent while at work. Basically I spoke like Gary Oldman in Dracula for the day. Which worked out nicely because I don't drink so whenever someone asked my opinion on a wine I could tell them "I never drink...wine."

I wore no pants to work today. Those of you choosing not to celebrate, or saying that you will but not actually leaving the house, you guys failed miserably at no pants day. I might decide to take a picture later.

I am going to be wearing some form of bottoms today. I do not want to go to school and then be arrested for exposure. But when I get home, sure, I'll participate.

Woo no pants!

Sadly all of my friends are too wimpy to participate. One said something stupid like, "I don't wanna sit here half naked in front of my girlfriend's mom, a bloo bloo bloo". I wasn't really paying attention. I was too busy NOT WEARING TROUSERS.

I endorse this holiday more than any other holiday as it's the most absurd and fun. Except for the finger banging one. That one is just begging for an imaginary gunfight on the subway.

I'm okay with this as long as his hair has grown back to an acceptable level.

With a shaved head, he looked like a scrotum.

I had to look at his past posts and then discovered who he was. I have been deceived!

And yes, please grow your hair back. It was nice!

I would like to date every single girl who participated in No Pants Day 2008.

This reminds me of Improv Everywhere's annual No Pants Subway Ride (http://improveverywhere.com/2007/12/29/no-pants-2k8-details-for-nyc/).

I meant the No Pants Subway Ride when I said that.

Also I was not wearing pants for a few hours earlier today without even knowing of the holiday, though it was just in my room. But go me anyways!

Man if you change your name and get a new account and don't make it clear who you are/were, then you lose your status. If someone who has registered this year tells me how to behave I would have no problem telling them to back off, unless everything they've posted has been top notch. I honestly can't recall much of Sox's posts off hand but I think he usually sticks to the music forum?
I assume Darryl was prepared to deal with being called a noob, because such would be expected. Unless he's being a dick. I don't think he's really that much of a dick.

Of course, all this talk presumably defeats the purpose of his face lift.

I think that was the reason for the account switch. It shouldn't matter who tells you something, it's either right or wrong, polite or rude, etc.

Dan and James have the right ideas. The last sentence of James' post should resonate loudly, I hope.  As for being a dick, the mediafire thread apparently really sets me off, I'm going to avoid it for a while until I have some better opinions regarding appropriate file sharing etiquette.

This is why I've considered doing the same thing, but decided against because I figure it'd just be weird and I wouldn't be able to post in the photothreads or talk about my baking log or other things that are specific to me..
