Big dacks

Back in the early 90s the world invented the techno bunny, a youth subculture of illegal rave attendance and enjoyment of dance music.

For more info--well. A Duck Duck Go search of "techno bunny" found me this little nugget which is best viewed using Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0 or Netscape Navigator 3.0.

Phat pants were the bunnies' preferred form of strides, of course. In my family home my older brother, the elusive Babsy, found phat pants hilarious and loved calling them big dacks. So to me, they have always been big dacks.

I was a grunge kid, or maybe just scruffy, and favoured easy fit jeans. Then around 2010 there was a massive turn to skinny jeans and I supposed at some point I acquiesced. You really just have to buy whatever clothes are being sold unless you're willing to make an effort, which I am not.

The other day at work I was talking to my workmate Josie who informed me that now all styles of jeans are in. Like, all of them. You can just go and buy them. So on the weekend, seeing that I was in need of new dacks, I decided to ground-truth Josie's wild claims.

They were right!! You can totally just buy the jeans you want now.

And it turns out that what I wanted was big dacks.

(Now I just have to get the sewing machine out and take the hem up.)
