Amber Taylor links to this story about a new law in Virginia banning low-slung pants. Rather than seeing this law as a libertarian's nightmare, why not look at it as a refreshing precedent in the world of fashion law? Low-slung pants are tacky 99% of the time, so Virginians might be onto something. Maybe next, NYC could ban Uggs (why not put the "sooo over" into law?) while Chicago could ban this particular layered-and-permed look that doesn't do anyone any favors. Oh, and as a courtesy to Nick, why not throw in a city-wide cargo pants ban while we're at it?
