Pajama pants at Walmart
Forums:
While buying a few cheap toys made in china that will end up in a landfill in 6 months, I saw a grown obese man wearing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles pajama pants and then a woman in the electronics section wearing Cookie Monster pants. Noticed a few others in christmas themed pajamas. When did wearing pajamas in public become so socially acceptable?

JR is part of a coterie of people who drop in to cast aspersions, share their put downs, perhaps feel smug and better than the rest of us. It's a thing.
As was said above, who cares what people think of how people dress or what they look like?
Tell us something interesting about yourself, JR. Be kind to yourself.

Pojamma people, people
Some people's hot
Some people's cold
Some people's not very
Swift to behold
Some people do it
Some see right through it
Some wear pyjamas
If only they knew it
The pyjama people are boring me to pieces
Feel like I am wasting my time
They all got flannel up 'n down 'em
A little trap-door back aroun' 'em
An' some cozy little footies on their mind

Back when I visited NY around
Back when I visited NY around 1980, I went to NYC and we saw Gilda Radner and Sam Waterston in a matinee performance of "Lunch Hour" at the Shubert Theatre.
When we got back to my brother's house in the evening, my sister-in-law was aghast that I wore my overalls to a Broadway show. My wife said it was kinda funny seeing reactions when I walked to the bathroom. My thought was my money's the same color as theirs.

Overweight people wearing
Overweight people wearing pajamas to Wal-Mart probably doesn't reach the bar, but there are limits to what is acceptable to wear, or not wear in public. Don't think many people want to see a fully robed Klansman, a person with a swaztika armband, a nudist, or a person in full body armor at the local general store.

Not bad JR but this topic has been addressed:
"I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked,
dragging themselves through the Walmart at dawn looking for a cheap toy,
angelheaded hipsters burning for the ancient heavenly connection to the starry dynamo in the pajamas of night, ..."

It was just the natural progression, turtle, once they weren't shamed enough for wearing pajamas in public.
I, for one, commend u for trying to shame them for it now as I do jr for starting this shaming thread and, most of all, mark D for shaming people for shopping at wal Mart at all.
I believe for a society and cultural to function optimally, a careful balance of freedom, compassion, and acceptance but also shame must b frequently instituted and re-evaluated.
As java Dave pointed out, some things r obviously socially unacceptable, others more trivial and less clear, but I think a spirited debate about standards and mores is healthy and even necessary from time to time

Pajamas in public is one of
Pajamas in public is one of my pet peeves. My main concern is are they the same PJ's they wore to bed.
Do you get up and leave the house with the clothing you slept in? You obviously aren't putting much effort into life. Probably don't brush your teeth or change your underwear.

sweatpants are not the same
sweatpants are not the same as pj pants
Like Mr. Turtle, I too think the fad about wearing fluffy slippers (and workout gear) in public is ridiculous.
Is it because young women rather spend over $100 on a pair of Ugg brand slippers to wear in public or that they no longer choose to build / maintain a wardrobe for all situations -- which can be done by buying used clothing to save $$.
It's the "i don't care what I wear" approach...

I share the sentiment that
I share the sentiment that both sweat and yoga pants r not the same as pajamas.
They may b informal and possibly overly casual given the situation but they r intended to b worn outside of your home.
At least put a robe on over your pajamas and get your Lebowski on, u slovenly bastards.
shall I just go to 7-11 in my boxer shorts?
let's have some goddamn dignity here, people

I don't shop at MallWart, but if I did I'd feel cheated if I didn't see some folks in their PJs. Extra points for couples with a matching pair.
If you get offended or annoyed at the way someone dresses, take some acid. It'll pass.

75 million people voted for Donald Trump, a second time, and we're surprised that people wear pajamas in public?
Things aren't getting better people, and the fact that our own superior judge of all things erudite and worthy admits to shopping at Walmart is just another sign that the age of the apocalypse is upon us.
Walmart, JR???
YOU???????

What I'm talking about, JR,
What I'm talking about, JR, is that you don't participate in the community in any way other than doing what you do. Many of us have aspersions to cast, put downs to give, and smugness to feel. That's not the thing.
3.2? If anything, it's about a .5. Maybe a .75?
Happy seasonal whatever you do.
