The Yoga Pants trend

Bin Rage?

I think it's when people fight over the overhead bins.


I'm confused about what this has to do with yoga pants

It is amazing how threads leave the tracks.

So, again, yoga pants are for yoga, not chartered accountancy or strolling on the beach or going to church.

I have no idea how that happens, because I would never do such a thing :whistling

As the parent of two children, and knowing you have none and want none, I'd love to hear your expert opinion on exactly how one "quietens" a wailing child.

In the confined space of an aircraft after having gone through the airport experience that, according to this thread, exasperates even the most even tempered of adults.

Please, enlighten us uneducated, uncaring, lazy parents who have the audacity to want to travel like the childless.

I hear you. Last November I got a 5am flight out of Romania, on which there were two women who had brought screaming babies which screamed the whole four hours in the air. While one doesn't want to be entirely unsympathetic, it does seem to be that many parents are either unable to quieten their offspring or don't feel the need. I'd willingly pay extra for guaranteed child free flights, to be honest.

"Many". Not "all". Not even "most" was implied. Entirely my own experience, based on observing more than a few people over the years blithely ignoring wailing child altogether.

Hi, I have a child but he is now 23, and yes I did find it embarrassing when I could not keep him quiet in this sort of situation.
I just posted that as my contribution to a thread with no relation to the original post. And Yes Wailing Baby Syndrom is almost as bad as travelling next to an adult with a walkman , MP3 or any kind of personal entertainment device, that also includes the tap tap tap of a laptop or people who insist on the text notification tone as they are constantly 'chatting' on the abomination that is Facebook.

Quite. One big bonus of air travel is that some of those obnoxious behaviours aren't an option.

Oh, you old-fashioned folks, you! Cringing at the sight of those drab yoga pants! I'm getting visually assaulted by girls wearing dark pantyhose and wifebeaters. I'm just thankful they keep the panties on.

The most important thing is that fashion and trends keep on changing every time. If a male has an illusion to wear the clothes which gives him comfort and relaxation, then a woman or a girl can also wear the outfits according to her choice providing comfortableness to her body. Every one is free to live like his/her own.

Agreed. Men - start sporting those Yoga pants!

Pfft, why stop at the pants?

The two consistantly worse ports of entry I've experienced are the Newark airport .....

Strangely, of the handful of airports I've passed through in the USA, Newark was the one where the service was very good. Atlanta was dreadful - my daughter was sick and there was no one who even attempted to help us. The ignorance of the staff was overwhelming. But Newark was great.

Hi

I make a valiant attempt to NEVER need any form of service when in an airport. I park the car, check my luggage (nothing that's not disposable), get searched, set down and read. Get on the plane, read more, get somewhere, pick up the luggage, pick up a car, and get the heck out. I can eat when I get there.

I actually own the book with the Two Type's cartoons in my desk SOMEWHERE. I'm betting you've read it.

Why?! WHY?!

Why?! WHY?!

Whatevs, you know you own two!
Actually, I used to run around in yoga pants and wrap top because I did yoga. I would run into the market on the way home from yoga classes/workout/walking at Memorial Park. In fact, because my friend and I would show up like that to work (we had a dressing area to change), we were emulated by girls that did not work out at all. This was nearly ten years ago, so not part of a trend for us.
Certainly, I did not wear them for other functions.

Absolutely! In particular I love one post-war cartoon where they are back in London and looking for work: one says to the other "Don't worry old man, Private Blenkinsop assured me he'd fix us up with a job."
It sums up so much about how World War 2 changed British society.

Jeggings and skinny jeans are more prevalent in the NYC area than yoga pants. Yet all are equally unflattering to the typical female shape.

This reminds me of the first time I took my mother to Camden market. This was back before the Council and the Landlords ripped the soul out of it and turned it into a glorified alterna-Covent Garden for the tourists. I thought I'd finally managed to stop her staring at goths when I caught her doing a confused expression in front of the Breathless window - Breathless being a rubber and fetishwear specialist, which at the time had a one piece bodysuit based on a red tails hunting ball outfit in the window. Didn't even try to explain that one.

The first place I ever saw jeggings was on Shooting Stars when Vic and Bob celebrated "International Jeggings Day". I honestly thought they were a joke, a parody of the drainpipes popular among hipsters at the time. Had no idea they were for real.

Confession: I have worn jeggings, albeit only with very long tops. I also own lots of skinny jeans on account of being a former hipster. I have now retired them to a special drawer along with my collection of band shirts.

Any picture of your hipster era? :eeek: I didn't know there were hipsters in Sweden. In my town there isn't any. Maybe something similar but not even close.
