Putting on pants, both legs at a time

[wispfox]

Because australian_joe didn't really do a poll, as much as ask for comments, _I_ am doing a poll!

(the original post - also? The 'some' who supposedly did not think it was silly would be, well, just him. ;)

[Poll #846215]

[edit: putting them on at the same time by leaping into the air and pulling them on while in the air. Not by sitting down. :)]

I never understood the saying "He puts his trousers on one leg at a time, like everyone else." For one, Superman clearly can put his tights on both-legs-at-once. For two, any Joe shmoe can put on his pants both legs at once by sticking his or her butt on the bed...I often do this...

Now, when you have split pants, like in 15th century hose (where the two legs need to be laced up seperately to points in your underwear), then it gets tricky...

Ah, but I sorta forgot an important piece of information. The whole 'leaping into the air' aspect of putting both legs on at the same time. Not the easy method of just sitting down!

Ah. I have done this, but it often results in injury. So I'd call it "fruity", rather than simply silly...

[wispfox.livejournal.com]

What... is the difference between 'fruity' and 'silly'?

[metahacker.livejournal.com]

Well, fruity people leap into pants with both legs. Silly people put on their pants both legs at a time, but do it in zero-g so there is less chance of injury.

Or, to put it a different way, people who act fruity are fruits. People who act silly are...sills?

I... umm...

Was that actually helpful?

My take-home lesson was either that silly people are safer, or have access to zero gravity. I want access to zero gravity!

Being silly gives you access to zero gravity? Why didn't anyone tell me this before?

*searches for banana peel to wear on head*

Yeah, see?

You'd think I'd have _known_ this!
