They're probably worth a post of their own.Retariushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09165689727557860449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606849139003171110.post-81246020001290951522014-02-24T05:46:45.511+08:002014-02-24T05:46:45.511+08:00I agree 100% with your definition of hot pants, wh...I agree 100% with your definition of hot pants, which as you say must have integrated braces or (better) a bib.

I'm certain about the mis-use of "hot pants". The reason that so many things pop up on Google Images if you search for that phrase is simply that the pictures have been labelled by those too young to know better!Retariushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09165689727557860449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606849139003171110.post-74443710453094087732012-03-24T14:37:54.452+08:002012-03-24T14:37:54.452+08:00Nice post, liked the Patridge Family clip.
