Yesterday's taboo is today's fetish.

It's true. I have a fetish for wearing white pants after Labor Day.

Isn't a "taboo" a kind of cat that sneaks up behind you on Halloween and pounces when you aren't expecting it?

Umm. Now that's obscure. Must be a local custom. Do you wear them outside your tights or under your trousers?

Well the joke is... (and it will be SO funny once I explain it...) that wearing white pants after labor day is considered a fashion faux pas according to older "rules" of fashion (back in the era when women didn't go outside without wearing gloves, etc). So I guess the humor was supposed to lie in elevating that to a bona fide taboo and also making it a fetish... ah never mind!

Or either we have a cross-pondial difference in meaning of pants. USns wears 'em on the outside, over our grundies.

Well, yes, while seeking info' I was, too, making a joke referring to the transpondial difference in usage of the term 'pants' and also dragging Superman into it. I agree with Alex, all jokes are much funnier once explained.

Ah yes, I fell into a sort of sarchasm didn't I? More like a facetious-chasm, which while not nearly as witty-sounding is much less dangerous than a sarchasm. Oh well, that's what I get for trying to engage in repartee before a proper cup of coffee.

Dear Alex: ever experience a spasm in the chasm? Mild = exquisite, Severe = excruciating. Or so I was told.
