    My husband agrees that it was beer. He says some of those other things mentioned are fine, but they don't go nearly as well with pizza as does beer.

    I used to like seeing yoga pants until my daughter started wearing them.

    This, yoga pants can be great but in the wrong girl they can make you gag. Besides that I gotta say the smartphone. I'd say it's one of the most used things by the vast majority Americans.

    As a youth leader at my church and probably a future father of a daughter at some point...yoga pants are not public attire at all.

    For me it is a tie between a toilet paper or beer.

    You can tell when a woman gives up when she wears sweat pants out in public.

    Yoga pants are in a different league than sweat pants in my mind. Ask any girl... The majority of them would prefer to wear yoga pants.

    One of the greatest inventions ever.

    Yoga pants are way up on the list. Other than that, I'd have to say a hammer for me. You can build things, tear things apart, and shut things up with them :evilgrin: I use one just about every day for something!

    When did they start calling them yoga pants? I've known them forever as tights. I always wear skirts and when it's cold like this, I wear tights under my skirt and take them off when I get indoors.

    I do believe they are two separate items and the "Yoga Pants" started to be massed produced over the last 5-10 years of the latest yoga craze.

    Okay, I checked out both. Apparently the difference is that tights have feet. But they fit the same way.

    I was wondering why guys wouldn't get excited by tights like they do yoga pants. But it occurred to me that it's likely that most girls wear tights under a skirt like I do, whereas they wear yoga pants as an outer garment.

    It's also the material. Not sure what tights are made out of but the yoga pants are Lycra, same thing my racing suit for swimming is made of.

    It has to be electricity. Without that, we wouldn't have all the convenience's and comforts that we have. AND... without it, we wouldn't have yoga pants.
