Yeah, I agree.  A hat that said, "Socks" would make for a great party outfit  ;D


Here is a really offensive joke I made up yesterday.  Do not click unless you are OK with inappropriate things of a religious nature.

Out of interest: do Americans use the term "pants" meaning rubbish or no good?

Nope, "pants" as a verb means to breath heavily, as "a dog pants after the long run" and "pants as a noun means slacks or trousers.

As "pants" essentially means underwear here, it's used commonly in the way the southparkesque term "gay" is over on that side of the pond.

You'll notice everything stops at around 4pm.  That's because it's tea-time, the most important meal of the day.  Once someone tried to have tea whilst working, but then he died.

So is this correct? 

That new Pearl Jam album is totally pants.

Perfect in both ways.

Even googling "is pants" with google uk will demonstrate how common its usage is (that is if Google allows non-UK based connections to see that link how I do?).

To my eyes and ears that's a funny expression  :D

I have some pants that are pants  ;D

Is the word "gay" used in England like it's used in the US?

I personally don't know of anyone that uses it although there are probably some young South Park fans that make it work.

Would you say it's odd for some British when they hear Americans saying "That's gay" then?

I wouldn't think anyone would find what Americans say as "odd", but the term "gay" is at best 'impolite', especially when you have "pants" to fall back on.
