To get baffled by the teen boys who can't get jeans past their thighs?

I know I am sounding like my Granny, and am obviously deeply uncool, but just how do they manage to walk without their jeans falling to the floor? And it means that you get to view said persons 'grundies' in the gap between t-shirt (above buttocks) and jeans (below buttocks), which in a teen boy's world is not really an attractive sight.
I know it is only a trivial matter, but I mean, hipsters I get. I like them, and i wear them, but surely this is a step to far?

Or am I just being a bit Victor over this...?

I'm sure your grandparents and parents rasied their eyebrows oversome of your fashion tastes.

We're not supposed to like what they wear.

Phew, not just me then. Thought maybe I had migrated into granny mindset rather too early.
And BonnieDarko - I always ensure I have loonngg tops on with hipsters....to avoid the hangout phenomenon!

I saw a lad last week who didn't manage to walk, nay stand still even, without them falling down. He looked very embarrassed when he had to make a grab for them

Silly arse.

Hipsters are shite too. I've seen far too much pasty flesh hanging out and it's not even summer yet.

our neighbour does this and walks like he's cacked his pants. makes me want to point and laugh.

which i sometimes do.

No, Victor - you're cool with me.

Apparently they wear braces of some description, which is why they don't fall down. They look bloody stupid though, don't they? So uncool.
