George Costanza would say

"You've given up on life if you're wearing sweat pants in public." Not to mention you want to make me throw up if you actually think it's ok to wear such a non-flattering, casual, gross piece of clothing-ever.
And the next worst thing to sweatpants? Pajama pants. I dont mind the use of these in a sleeping situation-unlike sweatpants which are never acceptable to me-but as a fashion statement to school? I may even understand a trip to Wal-Mart late at night for cold medicine. Not rolling out of bed and going 8 straight hours of classes in the clothing you slept/sweat in.

PJ's in public all the rage, despite school bans
“Part of it is because it’s cute; but the majority of it is because it’s comfortable,” says the sixth-grader

-news flash, it's not cute!

“But once you start wearing slippers with them, people start to make jokes about a pajama party,”

-who wears slippers in public?? and why would anyone think a soft-bottom/easily rippable sole would be ok to walk in outside?

"Valerie Bent, who launched the Las Vegas-based Big Feet Pajama Co. a month ago, says...some young people also have told her they plan to wear the one-piece, footed PJs to school."

-i can't even comment on this until i would see such a rediculous act in person, in which case i'd probably faint

I agree with the why do schools care about pajama pants attitude, but honestly, why don't people care they're wearing such horrbile garments?
