Pants Up!

"Enter the building pants up"
What prompts someone to hang up this sign?
Explain the story behind the sign in 250 words or less.
(Need inspiration? Read people’s stories about the “Parakeet Found” sign I posted last week.)
The doctor left the room and I just sat there wondering what to do next. His instructions weren’t very clear…something about getting a prescription from reception.
All I knew for sure is that I wanted out of the building. Nothing about proctology makes me want to stay.
I did have the sense to zip up my pants before I ran out. But if I hadn’t seen the sign, I might’ve zipped up in the lobby.
This is indeed perplexing. Could the building manager be General Larry Platt? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMwhl4IrPNc
The floor of the lobby is infested with earwigs which can catch on to your trouser cuffs. They then migrate up your body and creep into your ears, lay their eggs then eat through your brain to get out the other ear. You then become a zombie control freak building manager.
Dear East Village Nudist Collective,
I appreciate your right to live your life to the fullest as much as the next guy, and I think it’s really great that you’ve established such an extensive community in my neighborhood. I can tell by all the people who arrive on Wednesday evenings carrying their tote bags full of pot luck dishes for your weekly dinner that there must be quite a few New Yorkers who long for the freedom to bare all. It’s great that you offer them a place to do that.
But as they guy with the first floor apartment directly across from your meeting space, I have one request. Could you please ask your members to wait until they arrive to disrobe? Just a sign in the window or something, letting them know that the nudity starts when they get indoors.
Many thanks,
Your neighbor Steve.
FYI: I love this.
YOU GUYS ROCK. Keep ‘em coming…so much fun to read…
P.S. Jen: yes, I’m sure of it :)
