My Trousers are at the Cleaners
 
My dry cleaning clothes are at the cleaners in Meredith.
I went today to pick up and the cleaners is gone/closed.
Now what?

Where did my trousers go?

upthesaukee 06-29-2016 11:17 AM

Who are the cleaners? Asking only because they may have additional locations. How long ago did you drop them off? Have you called a phone number for them?

I live here... I am always Upthesaukee.

hate when that happens....

I've lost my pants before but never at a dry cleaners. Pretty sure it was motorcycle weekend 20 years ago.:laugh:

WeirsBeachBoater 06-29-2016 02:40 PM

That location has been closed for MONTHS.... How long did you expect them to store your pants?

Now, this reminds me of a son cleaning out his dad's house after dad's passing. In a desk drawer, he found a claim ticket from the local cobbler, dated 20 years earlier. He took the ticket to the shop, and gave it to the old cobbler behind the counter. He looked at the ticket and said "Ah yes, black wing - tipped man's shoes, heels and half soles. Be ready next Tuesday."

WakeboardMom 06-30-2016 02:30 PM

Have you checked "Etc. consignment?" I mean, if you really wanted those particular pants...they might be there...

colesfamily 07-03-2016 07:29 PM

I live next door to the Trousers. Do you want me to have them call you?

Now that's a good one.

rsmlp 07-05-2016 11:03 AM

Who says "trousers" anymore?

gf2020 07-05-2016 08:59 PM

Reminds me of a time, about 20 years ago, that I brought a pair of shoes to a local cobbler for new soles. The claim check had a disclaimer for the standard stuff, not responsible for merchandise left over 30 days, etc. but also "not responsible for losses due to fire". I thought that was a strange disclaimer.

Sure enough, the building burned down the following week. Never got my shoes back.

Descant 07-06-2016 08:23 PM

Trouser, pants, slacks
 
More than 20 years ago, I joined the Navy. The Drill Instructor informed us of a lot of new terminology. First, he was a Gunnery Sergeant and Drill Instructor. There is no such thing as a Drill Sergeant. Second,
Men wear trousers. Pants were a lady's undergarment. Slacks were also worn by women, but most appropriately, they didn't have any.




Slack.





Took a long time to get there, huh?

TCC 07-07-2016 07:11 AM

Yup rube, those navy sergeants can be tough! :rolleye2:

I'm old enough to remember these adds with slacks for men.

Phantom 07-07-2016 01:52 PM

I'm old enough to wish I never saw those ad's ...... now that you have posted it, I can't wash that vision out of my brain --- AGAIN !! It's not like ya can simply hit - DELETE :laugh: :D

Newbiesaukee 07-07-2016 02:14 PM

As the whole thread seems to be a digression...

I remember my salmon colored polyester slacks too tight for pockets so I had to carry my wallet in my man-bag. Those were the days.

I am sorry the OP can't find his pants.

Pineedles 07-07-2016 04:07 PM

:emb:SIK, you had to post that picture! A vision of my Orange and Tan Plaid "slacks" came into my mind and I can't get it out. They were scratchy too as I remember. Ugh.

Over the years, certain Navy accession programs have used Marine Corps drill instructors. "More than 20 years ago," that would have been Aviation Officer Candidate School in Pensacola. Today, it's Officer Candidate School in Newport, although I heard recently that the Navy is considering doing away with the drill instructors, which would be a shame.

Here's to SSGT Snow, USMC, and AOCS class 06-87.:cheers:

I was pretty sure those were your legs in that photo.:laugh:

noreast 07-08-2016 07:24 AM

What exactly are "trousers"? are they just pants, or a type of pants?

Phantom 07-08-2016 07:35 AM

any type of pants ............. in some European Countries the word "pants" often refers to underwear.

That is why the terrorists hate us. Not your quote, I thought the picture would come with it.

upthesaukee 07-08-2016 02:27 PM

Old Scottish song, with most of the Scottish dialect cleaned out. Every night I used to hang my trousers up on the back of the bedroom door. I remember the day my mind must have been away , I'll never hang them up anymore. For my wife she used to ramble through my pockets, when I was fast asleep beneath the quilt. In the morning when I woke , I was always Stony broke. And that's the reason now I wear a kilt.

I live here... I am always Upthesaukee.

ITD 07-08-2016 05:24 PM

I have a picture of me from the 70s wearing bright red corduroys. And no I will not share.

I went in the Navy almost 60 years ago. This was essentially what we "Boots" were told. Men wore "Trousers", women wore "Panties". You can take it from there. :)

Back in those days, (1959) Navy bootcamp had Navy Senior Petty Officers doing the "drilling". Drilling was training the troops to March in unison on the drill field.

"Left-Right..Left-Right..Column Right..YO..etc." NEVER smile when your drill instructor gets in your face..really in your face....three inches..you can smell his breath. I think sometimes the DI would purposefully injest some nasty garlic..or something, just to make a point. Fond Memory's. :) :) :) NB

Just, please, no kicking Edgar Allan Poe!

And I, uh, had a pair of red corduroys my mother bought when I was a little kid. Wore them once. Got beat up twice. Three days later, one of the kids showed up at school with red corduroys.. I guess my mother had a talk with his mother...A classic punishment.

Expletives, are the verbal argument of the intellectually vapid...
