If you&#8217;re freelance, unemployed or unemployed and you&#8217;ve fallen into the no-pants trap, today&#8217;s newly declared holiday is for you. Over at <a href="http://assme.org" target="_self">ASSME</a> (the American Society of Shitcanned Media Elite), blogger Sheila has declared it First Annual Freelancers Put on Your Pants Day in a post that sounds like the beginning of a hot phone-sex convo:<span id="more-4239"></span></p><blockquote><p>I’m not wearing any pants right now–and chances are, if you’re reading this website, you aren’t either. While this is somewhat of a longstanding personal habit, being jobless and rattling around the apartment all day wearing my boyfriend’s oversized button-down shirt is making me feel like a drunken landlady.</p></blockquote><p>So what&#8217;s the solution? The bottomless scribe urges all afflicted to make an effort today to dress like you&#8217;re going to an office, even if you&#8217;re just sitting in the living room:</p><blockquote><p>Nice shorts and skirts OK too, but NO boxers or pajamas–you must wear clothes that you could actually go to a job in. (Send in pics if you want!). . . This will give everyone an extra shot of self-esteem and aura of respectability as we continue our job hunting. It’ll make us all feel better.</p></blockquote><p>All the attention will probably make your neglected pants feel better too.
