Stream of Consciousness Saturday – Prompt “Pant.”

Stream of Consciousness

It is Stream of Consciousness Saturday time again. This weeks prompt is “Pant.” Linda Hill says we can use it alone or part of another word. If you would like to participate, go to Linda’s blog and read how. Here is the link. https://lindaghill.com/2017/08/18/the-friday-reminder-and-prompt-for-socs-aug-1917/

Pant by John W. Howell © 2017

“Are you telling me the new occupants of our rental apartment are a bunch of pantomiming pantywaists?”

“Yeah, they are mimes. Don’t get your panties in a bunch.”

“Hey watch it. I don’t wear panties.”

“It is an expression. Any participant in civil discourse knows that.”

“You saying I’m dumb?”

“No. I’m saying your lack of sophistication runs rampant through your understanding of things.”

“Hmm. Sounds like a flippant remark to me.”

“Whoa. You just surprised the pants off of me.”

“They are still on.”

“Whoops back to a social nonparticipant.”

“Huh?”

“The expression had nothing to do with pants on or off.”

“Yeah, I get that. Sometimes I wish a wild animal would come along and bite you.”

“Any in mind?”

“Given this discussion, I would say a panther.”

    I have met people who don’t get those phrases. Rather interesting conversations there.

    Ha! Somehow you got to pantomime right away. I don’t believe I would have ever thought of that one. You’re the cat’s pajama (pants). Happy Saturday, John. And a happy Caturday to Stella.
