Thank you word of the day calendar. - johndavidjack, on 07/09/2009, -0/+20Yeah, but I'm sure they won't ditch anything else that is important to them that has come from factory farming, child labor, and plants/refineries that dump harmful chemicals into the air.
Fake outrage. - DouglasQ, on 07/08/2009, -0/+18You mentioned Megan Fox on Digg. Visionary.
- SummerofGeorge, on 07/09/2009, -0/+12in the uk, pants = underwear
fyi - fuzzyllama, on 07/08/2009, -6/+17Yeah but will Megan Fox be there?
- marmotjmarmot, on 07/08/2009, -0/+8Like she could keep her pants on anyway.
- TobiasParker, on 07/09/2009, -3/+11I like pesticides, they keep me safe from Malaria.
- omnithought, on 07/09/2009, -0/+8I would like to extend to you...an invitation to the pants party.
- ahhell, on 07/09/2009, -2/+10Stupidest cause of all time.
Who the hell cares? - andyb747, on 07/09/2009, -2/+9Did anyone else read this as..
"Celebrities Ditch Pants For Penises Against Testicles"
....no... just me then....ok. - inactive, on 07/09/2009, -0/+7Can we non-celebrities do this too?
No pants today. Lets all do it. - CrazyEddie041, on 07/09/2009, -0/+6It's not so much "against pesticides" as much as it is "against one really, really bad pesticide that kills people."
- ianzu, on 07/09/2009, -0/+6Evidently I've been protesting against this for quite some time now.
- inactive, on 07/09/2009, -0/+6Five bucks says Monsanto is somehow connected to this.

(Food Inc.'s Robert Kenner interview on the Daily Show) - chadsmith729, on 07/09/2009, -0/+5If you just look at the pictures it's a bit odd and tells a very intriguing story.
- omenmedia, on 07/09/2009, -0/+5...being chased by tubby kid with rose, without his pants on.
- wideawakewesley, on 07/09/2009, -0/+5Well as long as they keep their trousers on, we'll never know.
;) - CrazyEddie041, on 07/09/2009, -0/+4Psssh, you don't need a special day for that. Every day is no pants day!
- cygnus2112, on 07/09/2009, -0/+4endosulfan isn't the only pesticide. And pesticides aren't always needed to grow crops.
It's worth looking into, at least. - Rankao, on 07/09/2009, -0/+3we wore the flesh of our enemies around our waist.
- tEhKewleSt, on 07/09/2009, -0/+3MATT. DAMON.
- edrodgers731, on 07/09/2009, -1/+4Shhhh! Don't talk about that!
- pitchblackjava, on 07/09/2009, -0/+2Spoken like a guy who's never worked a day on a farm. Do me a favor: come to our place in Nebraska, and I'll introduce you to the sprayer farmer across our place. It would take you 3 days of spraying to change your mind.
- electronicdream, on 07/09/2009, -0/+2"Endosulfan transformed this woman's son into a rock."
- Presbyterian, on 07/09/2009, -2/+4So what happened before pesticide was invented?.
- Ellipsys, on 07/09/2009, -0/+2I think a lot of people are trying to do just that. Many people who have the money and awareness necessary are buying exclusively organic and fair trade.
- DarkBlueAnt, on 07/09/2009, -0/+2The picture with the caption "Endosulfan killed this woman's son" made me laugh more than the underpants. Something about the vague and uncalled for intensity is hilarious to me. The woman is screaming, but she only gets shoved in the bottom of a mediocre article and isn't even dignified with a name.
- johndavidjack, on 07/09/2009, -0/+2I wanted to start the bottomless trend, hence the bottomless party.
- soupdawg30, on 07/09/2009, -5/+7No pesticides = No crops = No pants
- protogenxl, on 07/09/2009, -0/+2Didn't Matt of Australian Gamer also have Pants Leprosy?
- NoDrama, on 07/09/2009, -0/+2Fox may call it news, but what they do is ratings-chasing entertainment at best.
- omega6, on 07/09/2009, -0/+2Are you trying to tell me there's a party in your pants and I'm invited?
- CrazyEddie041, on 07/09/2009, -1/+2Normally I'd agree, but if it's giving people cancer, then it's kind of a bad thing.
- JohnnySoftware, on 07/12/2009, -0/+1Normal way to fight malaria is dump an oil slick on a swamp, preventing larvae from making it to the surface - or drain th swamp. And cover swimming pools. Cover trash cans. Prevent stagnant pools of water from becoming their breeding grounds basically.
DDT was instrumental in wiping bed bugs from the US. However, other countries were not on the ball and frequent travel from them to the US has caused bed bug outbreaks in many US hotels. - soupdawg30, on 07/09/2009, -0/+1Crop Duster?
- norman619, on 07/09/2009, -0/+1It's PR outrage. Only way to enjoy these low prices is to allow companies to take advantage of slave labor in countries where that is allowed.
- ohreilly, on 07/09/2009, -2/+2"British celebrities"
"Dermot O'Leary"
wat? - norman619, on 07/09/2009, -2/+1No kidding. DDT is a great example of ignorance leading to the banning of a pesticide which saved millions of lives every year. The banning of DDT is the direct cause of a host of preventable deaths to malaria and other insect born diseases. DDT was never proven to be unsafe but the PR machine behind that view proved to be too much.
- Presbyterian, on 07/09/2009, -4/+1That was lame....
