Mind-bogglingly absurd trend, I thought we'd seen the end of sh1te like this after the Emperor's new clothes debacle.

Do you mean pants as in underpants or yank speak pants as in trousers?. If the former, then i don't know what you mean, if you mean the latter then yes they are imbeciles.
The latter, speedy. They are so helplessly misguided that if their peers started sporting g-strings on their heads they'd probably blindly follow suit.
It's one of the great mysteries of life tbh.

They believe they're mimicking prisoners in 1920's America.
The practice actually originated in Tsarist Russia. Prison guards would remove belts from prisoners trousers. This has the simple effect of making your trousers fall down. Therefore you have to hold them closed with one hand. It's difficult to run away with one hand holding your trousers up!

Christ, interesting stuff Veck. More to it than meets the eye then! Still no excuse for it though.
Teenagers are not organised enough to buy belts........
it started people showing off their boxers wearing jeans as low down the hips as possible, now it has evolved in to idiots wearing trousers under their arse. It makes me want to hit them. Hard.
nothing wrong with it, i dont do it personally though
at least if you hit them they will fallover trying to chase you
It's just symptom of the general decline in standards. Grown men wearing trainers and football shirts. Over 30's wearing denim. Men not wearing ties. People eating on public transport. People wearing hats indoors. People with the bottom button of their suit fastened. The list is endless.
Hopefully a Conservative government will reverse this trend. I doubt it though, looking at the state of Boris Johnson. Until James Sherwood is given a cabinet role the downward trend will continue.

Supposedly it means the wearer has been in prison. The low-slung trousers were the sign of a prison ** or possibly somebody on suicide watch who had had their belt removed.
The high five slap has a similar origin. American jails had a glass screen between prisoners and visitors so that the nearest they could get to touching was to press their hands against the glass on either side.

Andy your trousers cant drop down because you are obese,remember?
Not many of us do, just some mongs tarnishing the name.
This might explain the trousers thing: http://imgbit.com/i1455
They should look at some shots of mods in the 60's,some crazy fashions,but smart.And the 70's.
I saw a kid playing the fobt's with his £3.99 grey tracky bottoms half way down his ar

They should introduce a law which makes it compulsory to** about the head with a rolled up newspaper anyone who sports this ridiculous look tbh.
to speed up the process of pulling them down when receiving a bj on a bus
blokes do it, looks fkn daft. arses sticking out, covered by their fake cheap Calvins... but if birds follwed the trend.. wow...
Thanks, Bill, about the high five - had not heard about that. You learn a lot on chit chat.
It is a personal crusade of mine to inform low slung trouser wearers of their error. So far, even with a gang of them, I have had no abuse and they have even seemed to be very interested when I told them how stupid they looked and if it was such a good look why did not girls do it?

i thought teenagers wore skinny fit jeans? how can skinny fit jeans hang under your arse??
Funniest thing is when they try to reach something in the bottom of a pocket. They have to bend almost double whilst still walking along. Hilarious :)
its when they have to run for the bus that gets me
Why do they think other people want to see the remains of what they had for breakfast?
Just in case there are some innocents on here, :) , please do not follow my example of informing them they look like idiots. I can get away with it because I am a woman and I do it with a smile. You could get a knife in your guts for 'disrepect'.
