Dockers Asks: If You Were a Pair of Pants…
I have pondered the usual personality questions such as: “If you were an animal what would you be?” Of course, the other popular query is: “If you were president for a day, what would you do?” There are actually books and articles of how psychologists would interpret responses, so perhaps that influences my responses.
There is no psychological profile for imagining yourself as an article of clothing.
Dockers asks: “If you were your pants, what would your day be like?” Well, that’s complicated. I would start out by asking the interviewer to expand on that. I would need to know what day of the week it was, and what the weather was like. I know, I may be seen as a little secretive and evasive by answering a question with a question.
If I were a pair of my pants today, I would be annoyed by the glaring light of the closet. I would argue with myself that surely I must be mistaken, as I am made of wool, and should surely not go outside in the humidity today. Also, I am no longer a young whippersnapper, having been tailored in 1948. I must preserve myself for more apt occasion. Then, I may get into a fight with a pair of beige khakis, as I push them forward as a better volunteer. Afterall, the khaki pants is a young whippersnapper who was made for the heat and doesn’t have to worry about wrinkles or age spots like I do.
Now, it is your turn to think about what a day in the life of YOUR pants would be. Unlike preparing for a daft cocktail conversation, there is actually a Dockers contest. To enter, film your own Dockers commercial for the NBC contest to tell the harrowing tale! Or, should I say tail? Contests ends June 6th. The winning commercial will have a chance to air during The Tonight Show. I would love to see my readers enter.
