Usage


"Lately, there has been chatter concerning my dress, particularly, my pants -- what are they made of? What is their date and place of manufacture? Do they sing, dance, spark? Etc. There are even those who ask if I truly own my pants at all. As if I would steal someone's pants for my own use? It's absurd. But let me straighten everyone out here and now. I have never worn tiny pants. Will never wear tiny pants. In point of fact, I think all of this is Adid's doing -- he was a lunatic when it came to pants. Me? I couldn't care one way or the other." -- from An Interview With Stimes Addisson, in the periodical Piebald, no. 3, vol. 1.


"I ask you, can there be a more incredible invention? The world stands in prim admiration before the pantaloons -- the smaller the better." -- from Sketches of My Face, by Alexandre Dacusse.


"I can't believe this guy. I let him borrow my pants all the time. Nice ones, too." -- comment made by Yon Milhaus, when asked by a reported how he felt about recent comments made about his character by Nevid Kessar.


"It was generally understood in the circles within which they travelled that the word pants was a symbolic representation of the issues the Accidentalists felt were responsible for the ideological schism between Adid and Addisson." -- from The A.A. and the A.A., What Gives?, broadside distributed by the Tampa AA Group, the Analytical Anticipants, in 1963.
