    Default Please stop wearing pajamas and slippers to Walmart.

    I'm as pro-freedom as the next guy but a 50 year old adult man should never, ever wear pajamas and fuzzy slippers anywhere out in public. Women do it more often but it looks way worse when a man does it. What the hell is wrong with people nowadays? Why would anyone ever even think to do this?

    Until last night I have never even owned pajamas. I would not go out wearing them in public that is for sure. However do to my heating bill being out there a bit I decided to back the heat down a few notches and get myself some PJ's. I need a new bath robe though...out of the blue I have become allergic to fleece, and apparently rabbits. (The rabbit thing sucks because I raise rabbits.)

    Anyway, I have always thought people wearing PJ's as public attire was silly. To each their own I suppose.

    Yeah, that website is extremely bizarre. Definitely NSFW. I can't believe that some people go to Walmart nearly unclothed, underclothed, or ... well, I can't explain really. I would say 'drag', but words have yet to be coined in English to describe some of these behaviors.

    I think clothing standards have fallen across the board in the past few decades. I remember Dad coming home in three-piece suits! Maybe some here wore that to work. Now that he's at home working it's jeans. He likes to tell a story of when he was in on a beach in Florida in the 70s in a full suit on a broiling day for some reason. That's what was worn in his line of work, so he wore it. I'm glad that business attire has loosened up a bit, but jammies in public? No, dress like an adult, in casual adult clothes.

    Yeah! Stay off my lawn and wear regular clothes and keep your underwear from being visible like the rest of us normal people...

    Good luck in your project / endeavour to change the planet.

    Better that than beer-bellies over Bermuda shorts. That applies to both sexes.

    I have thought about this long and hard and I still cannot come up with a sensible reason why people wear their PJ's out in public. I don't know how it started, I don't care how it started but I wish it would stop. It seems that all the WRONG people are wearing this stuff in public !
