seperis | who thought of this and why do they hate happiness?

Jeggings, like leggings but made with denim. Because skinny jeans didn't have quite enough of that "impossible to peel off once finally on without scissors" chic and God knows, who doesn't want their clothing to mimic our skin so closely you can identify their religion and ho-ho consumption on a glance.

....I'm going to just put this on the table. Jeggings is not as insane as iPad as a name. They could tie.

Jeggings.

Lowered Expectation of the Day

Do not pour your coffee onto your keyboard and announce it's a technological sacrifice to Cthulhu (or SCP-682, whichever).

(I will say I am resisting it only because I don't have a lot of coffee left and I can't be sure it will actually summon him and forever destroy Euclidean geometry and mortal men's minds. Or something.)

Jeggings. Seriously.

I have seen "jorts" used for "jean shorts". Be afraid. Be very afraid.

Did you see iPad 1.x will have limited multitasking? Not until fall, though. iPhone gets it this summer, as does iTouch, which suddenly nourishes the flame of my yen to get an iTouch and be able to listen to music and read on the same device while commuting. Lunacy.

Really? Is this an update or will I have to purchase it? Being able to listen to music while reading would be awesome.

AFAIK, listening to music should be enabled for all platforms? Since you can have iTunes open for music on the Touch while doing other things, and I believe that limited multitasking ability was implemented on the iPad as well (seeing as it's an iPhone/Touch writ large). I've been able to listen to music while playing games/reading books on my iPod Touch since I got it, at least.

::checks:: Okay, I am idiot. I can listen to music while reading; how did I miss this?

BTW, what does AFAIK mean? Just to complete my idiotness.

AFAIK="As far as I know" in internetz-speak. Don't worry, that particular acronym took me a while too; I still haven't figured out some of them (I only got IAWTC the other day! "I agree with this comment")

Per Gizmodo (http://gizmodo.com/5512635/iphone-os-40-all-the-new-features), it depends on which generation of iDevice you have:

When the software ships in the summer, iPhone 3GSes and iPod Touch 3rd-gens devices will get all of the new features. The iPhone 3G and Touch 2G will get "many things," which doesn't include multitasking. I repeat: the iPhone 3G won't get multitasking, ever. iPhone 2Gs will be left on a hillside somewhere to die of exposure, or something.

God, I've been seeing people wearing those on the subway. It's really not attractive.

Easy expectation for me to meet. I need this cup of coffee.

So happy I live in a cow town where no one has heard of Jeggings.

Really, once those pictures of Adam having ghost sex in Rolling Stone Japan came out I don't even need lowered expectations to have a fantastic day. Not dumping coffee on my keyboard will only be a bonus.

(Nevermind, found it. ;))

Why do I always see women who really shouldn't be wearing them...

Oh ... no. The world does not need this. America, in particular, does not need this. People of Walmart (http://www.peopleofwalmart.com/) is horrifying enough already, thanks.

Have they heard of spraypaint? 'Cause it might be easier.

Hee! I'm a guilty jeggings user, almost two years now. Mine are just so comfy with the elastic band and all. Of course, a looong blouse/tunic/shirt is essential because otherwise it's all a bit unseemly. :D

...$178!? One-hundred and seventy-eight dollars?

ONE.

HUNDRED.

AND.

SEVENTY.

EIGHT.

DOLLARS.

For the cheap ones. My god.

Not that I want them or anything. I've never had a ho-ho before, but I've had plenty of other sweets. But, seriously, it's like they don't even want these things to catch on.

Also, wouldn't it be easier and less painful to use regular knit fabric that has been made to look like denim?

Oh, ho-ho is a sweet? I thought seperis was using some sort of euphemism for genital area...

Genitals = religious affiliation, ho-ho = waaaaaaaaaaaay processed cream and chocolate-like cake-thing (http://www.hostesscakes.com/hohos.asp) = like twinky hoovering

I'm with Missu. I love these, as I love stretch waistband jeans. Why? Because real jeans are made of sturdy thick fabric that feels too thick around the waist and like it weighs a ton generally. I've been a zipless/no-button jeans wearer for years, and it's heaven.

Also, contrary to popular belief, these are easier to take off than real jeans Just, y'know, pull down :)

Do not pour your coffee onto your keyboard and announce it's a technological sacrifice to Cthulhu

Also, do not pour your coffee onto your keyboard in attempt to sober it up after spilling a glass of scotch on it. You will only get a wide-awake drunk keyboard.

:Sporfle:

Don't these people know that portmanteaux make the baby Jebuslug cry?

Not a problem -- I don't drink coffee. (My own Lowered Expectation for the Day has been not telling A) my supervisor to stop hanging out gossiping with my cubicle neighbor or B) my cubicle neighbor to get off the fucking personal phone and work quietly for a while. Thus far, success, and I'm about to escape for the weekend!)

As a chaote, I heartily disapprove. You should be careful of spilling things on keyboards because of Hermes would never let you near a keyboard again without it breaking. ;)

I hate when people wear leggings as pants. THEY ARE FOR UNDER DRESSES AND SKIRTS. AND SHORTS IF YOU CAN PULL IT OFF.

I have some "jeggings". They are uber-comfortable, and they look good (so long as you dress appropriately).

I refuse to call them "jeggings", though.

*puts head down on desk*

IDEK, Jenn.

And, when I read that bit about your coffee, I eyed my bottle of gatorade with deep suspicion.

The pictures of the Jeggings models make me want to eat a deep fried anything just to be difficult.

Yes. Maybe three deep fried like, milky ways or something.

Oh, did you want a Dreamwidth code by any chance if you don't already have one?

Oooh, sure! I hope it's not wasted on me, but LJ has been such a dick to me lately, that I've been looking to make some kind of switch or something.

Here you go! Just paste it to create a new account.

One should not poor office coffee on keyboards, as the results fumes are hallucinogenic. The headache lasts for daaaays.

*pour. Can't spell when on a coffee keyboard high.

I'm pretty sure my mom wore those pants back in the late 80s or early 90s... of course they were just called denim leggings then. So nice to see that the evolution of fashion requires a new name for them now. :-p

Much like bellbottoms being rechristened "flares."

I tried some on at the local Supré upon the insistence of my sister-in-law, who owns (and wears!) a pair. They looked AWFUL. I mean, I have such skinny legs that leggings of any kind look awful anyway, but OMG, new levels of.

Mostly teenagers wear them around here, seeing as they're fairly cheap at Supré, a clothing store for 'the young at heart'. Teenagers can get away with anything.

Ok, I went and bought two pairs of very similar things just last week, but I call them jeans thights. J----ns is an abomination to nature. My reasoning behind this purchase was that they are 100% strechty, thin jeans that work pefectly with my huge stomach, where regular jeans just squeeze the whole thing into a lumpy mess or fall down. Also, there are only black or grey leggins available when your my size, so I wanted some color!

I intend to only wear them with dresses and tops that are at least crotch-length, so you squeamish people can relax and stop worrying! ;)

Thanks, dude. You put jeggings and iPad in the same sentence. Now my brain is trying to find the most disturbing combination.

(I think it might be iPeggings.)
