Did you notice how we don't seem to call them slacks anymore? Pants. I remember talk of slacks in the 70's, but not so much today.

Yeah! When I was little I thought "slacks" were old lady pants, because I only heard my grandma and other old ladies say it.

Now I want to bring the word "slacks" back. From now on, I will call my pants slacks.

The MAN doesn't want you to wear plaid pants.

My favorite part is describing the assortment of available patterns as a "mighty medley." The copy-writer must have been feeling daring that day.

Who's ya plaidy?

And "slighter higher" in the west...? That means a leaner cut and elevated to the armpits? Or the ad firm for Post-Grad Slacks was staffed by non-grads? Or was it just the "Piss on Proofreading!" movement showin' how to stick it to the Man?
