Pants in the family

Liars get hot pants

In your household you will find a pair of actual law enforcement pants, although someone in the house is (almost) always wearing them.

Wake up early, so you can put them on before anyone else does. Go to bed late, so you won't have to take them off. Stay clean, so you won't have to take showers or launder the pants. You will become as time-saving and industrious as a Benjamin Franklin, except that you leave your pants on in France.

Other rules: 1) You cannot sleep in these pants 2) The pants must spend at least 8 hours a day in the house. 3) You cannot sell the pants, not even to your spouse.

       Is this a cry for help?

       Are these actual underpants, or trousers?   

       How do they enforce the law? They get hot when you tell lies?   

       Do you really want to get up extra-extra early to have the privilege of wearing the same knickers that your little brother Johnny has been wearing day in day out for the past two weeks?   

       What happens if two people get up at the same time and each put one leg into these underpants? Do they have to hop around all day in the nip joined at the thighs?   

       What if you put them on and go out to a prestigious conference and the conference sessions all overrun so you will be there more than 8 hours? Do you have to remove your underwear in the meeting and Fedex it back home before the 8 hour cut off limit?

       These are all valid questions [poc].   

       My question is; If you put them on are you planning   

       to tell a lie?

       No it's about who wears the pants in the family. He's saying whomever puts them on first gets to lay down the law that day...   

       ...I think.   

       What if you go to Sunday Services at The Church of No Pants and someone steals your "Family Pants" from the hook on the door of the rectory?
