I surmised that you enjoyed arguing about it because you continue to
do so.

To be clear, I haven't been arguing with you. For an example of my
argument style, refer to my exchanges with tom. Rather, I enjoy the
conceptual discussions. If you started on code structure, you'd put me
to sleep.

Hard times indeed, when an exchange of insults is sold for the price of
an argument. A proper argument requires, well, arguments: propositions
supported by logic, based on articulated facts. Animation is good, but
rancor and invective are not required, nor seizing offense as though it
were higher ground. I think Monty Python did a bit on that.


Never watch kids in a school yard screaming at each other, "Your Momma
wears army boots", "No she don't", "Yes she does!".

Your momma wears army boots is now a point of
pride.

Perhaps "now" but in the days of my youth, alas many years past, work
clothing was not considered proper attire for going downtown, or the
movies, or for Saturday shopping trips, and certainly not on Sunday.
In fact Levi's, what we called dungarees, were forbidden attire to be
worn to school.

These days it's common to see young people about town dressed,
literally, in pajamas and fuzzy slippers. Dungarees are reserved for
job interviews and funerals. Pink camo cycling shorts and a Primal Wear
jersey is about the middle of the formality spectrum now.

There's a local Tim Hirton's coffee shop where in the mornings around 8 to 9 M many of the women stopping in for coffee and chatting are wearing pajamas or just robes. I find it amazing what is acceptable as public wear these days.



This area is mostly Hispanic or Black with the white people old retirees that would look disgusting in pajamas.



I don't see what complexion has to do with it. Humans of
every flavor look ridiculous in PJs but that hardly slows
the trend, which is everywhere.
