Fashion Police

by TChris

Are people making fashion statements that you just don't like? Here's the solution: make the offensive dress illegal.

People who wear low-slung pants that expose skin or "intimate clothing" would face a fine of up to $500 and possible jail time under a bill filed by a Jefferson Parish [Louisiana] lawmaker.

Under the proposed law, a single instance of "plumber's butt" could result in a six month sentence. But why stop there? Why not a year for "big hair"? Three years for wearing a T-shirt advertising a bar that doesn't actually exist? And life for wearing any clothing that prominently displays the name or logo of the designer?
