The other day I was wanting to change pants since the ones I was wearing were wet and muddy. (Cue scary music.) But! The only pants available were pants that I knew would not close at the top! Since I wasn't planning to go out in public I resignedly decided that they would have to do. (Cue sad violin music.) But! When I put them on they actually fit! (Cue cheering crowds.) At last the pants that I had been unable to wear for three years (or more) were once again in circulation (without cutting off mine).
THE END
