When You Thought You've Seen Everything....

...your daughter tells you about keyboard pants. Truly, the only option is to send both daughters to a convent. It's the only way to save them from this perverse world.

You know, it took me awhile to get used to Borg-like appendages on ears that made people appear to be talking out loud to themselves. Now, you'll have to question whether the boy in front of you is typing up class notes or playing with himself.

It comes with a joystick located behind the zipper. How original. I wonder if that's optional and you can get a discount if you provide your own joystick. Sorry, couldn't resist.

And since this blog could quickly degenerate, I leave you to your own thoughts on this (hopefully short-lived) fashion statement.

Are there comparable jeans for girls? Or perhaps . . . a sweater?

I won't make a tasteless comment, I won't make a tasteless comment, I won't make a tasteless comment.....

Pondering seriously here...
Wonder how they wash them without short-circuiting?

Robin, it must be genetic that I was thinking the same thing...

Debra...but someone will. Wait and see.

PITA...they're for teenage boys. Wash? Laundry?

Dear Junosmom,

Wish I had thought of that first...

Flexible keyboards like the ones on these pants cost next to nothing in the Mongkok Computer Centre here in Hong Kong. They roll up and have rubber edges which can presumably be sewn into anything. Supposedly they are water-proof which would help with the laundering, pita-woman.

Apparently, however, they get fairly warm which doesn't seem comfortable to me, but then again it was a chilly 20 degrees Celsius (68 degrees Fahrenheit) today and it will return to a balmy 26°C (79°F) by Sunday. I suppose though that that extra warmth might be a sales feature in Minnesota or even in Kentucky right now...

Fun post, Junosmom.

Cheers,
Chris

Eek! Did you say a chilly 68 degrees?
Sorry, I have to disagree on that one, that's almost balmy to me.

Cathy, I just had another thought. My lame idea of marketing the stick (http://passageofawoman.blogspot.com/2008/11/stick.html) as the world's next hot toy sorts of pales in comparison, doesn't it?

What about when your man needs your help with something he's typing? Surely, you would want to help a guy out.

Of all that is stupid ...

Honey, does this Shift Key make me look fat?
