How DO they keep these UP?!?

At the car rental office (I do need transportation back to work 'til I have a car again) I waited while this young man negotiated a weekend rate.

I don't know HOW these young people keep those things UP!
How, exactly, is this a COOL look?
And he had three pair on, in successive positions of precariousness.
I'd love to know what they will think of this fashion 'statement' in twenty years!

But I'll bet my parents said the same thing . . . =)

The first time I noticed this, I just assumed there was a colostomy bag involved. Then I began to see it everywhere.........so that would not be the look explained. I do like the photo! T

LOL! Laughing out loud very much!! This style is so hilarious. It makes absolutely no sense to me. On the college campus I work at, it's not this bad, but the girls are especially into the "plumber's butt" style of low-cut jeans. They'd have been laughed out of school when I was a kid.

Ohh, and yes, I agree with Ray, a pity she couldn't be laughing at him. But perhaps when he walked away???? I bet she had a good snicker. ;)

Isn't this the DUMBEST LOOK IN THE WORLD. I've never understood it. You say he had THREE pairs of pants on? Truly idiotic. I have two little boys, ages 5 and 2, and I swear I'll go out of my mind if this fashion "trend" hits them in their teens. -- angela :)

I feel sorry for the receptionist. She was spared the view and couldn't have a great laugh at his expense!

I've got a staple gun and some duct tape that'll fix his problem. Nice job showing the world what a dork he is.

Remember when they used to make fun of our leg warmers? :) Pete, you made me laugh, cos I always wonder the same thing. I just don't get it.

I just don't get it either! They look so dumb!! I mean I know I've worn some weird things, but here, I draw the line!

I'll bet he couldn't run fast!
