putting your pants on, two legs at the same time

I’m not sure this is directly related to anything, but…

I was having a conversation, where the phrase “everybody puts their pants
on, one leg at a time,” came up. Well, it got me thinking, and after about
four tries, I’d managed to jump into my shorts. I just held them out, in
front of me, jumped up as high as I could, and put them on before I
landed. Though it was only a pair of shorts, it was certainly an
interesting victory. (Should I update my resume?)

Now, I just wonder, if worked on, how long it’d take some of the trials
folks to master putting on a pair of long pants this way :slight_smile:

Depends on the job. Now you are no longer a part of ‘everybody’. Does this
mean you’re nobody? Or something else? :slight_smile:

This sounds great. I have an idea: let’s all learn this and at Unicon next
year, take a photo of as many people as possible simultaneously jumping
into their shorts. We can have a smaller picture with everyone who can do
it with pants too.

Now that’s something that would turn a head…a multitude of folks
standing around in their underwear waiting for the signal to jump into
their shorts. Should prove interesting if it happens.

That would be american pants I take it? Otherwise this will start to look
like the eurocycle nude soocer or the EJC nude unicycle race:-)

if anyone feels like they have an extra ankle or two to break they could jump into the shorts while mounting an ultimate wheel. hmmm…
