Also a verb, to pull someone's pants down by surprise.
I just never realized what a remarkably versatile word is pants. It's...why, it's the Pants!
Yeah! I'll pants that!
"Pants" is also an expression of badness, such as, "I'm pants at checkers." or "This day has been absolute pants."
Kid's a genius, John. Get him on Wordie ASAP. :-)
My nephew, age 3 or so, is sitting quietly in a carseat, when apropos of nothing he blurts out "Aww man, why am I wearing pants?"
I now ask myself that question all the time. Don't alway have an answer.
Haha! Must use that some day. :-)
A general term of annoyance.
e.g. “Aww pants!”
Shortened from the original pantaloons.
Check out the Wikipedia entry for the British use of pants. Love it. My girlfriend started calling me "Pants" after I took to referring to girls as skirts.
