I've never been a big fan of Juicy Couture. I never jumped for joy at the return of sweatsuits (velour, no less) to the fashion market, never found it appealing to have the word "Juicy" stamped across my ass. I found it odd when girls I knew in college would complain about going out at night (particularly to TJ) only to be whistled at and catcalled, I mean, what were they, pieces of meat? They were the same girls who wore Juicy pants. And had exceptionally large breasts which they didn't bother to try and hide.
Anyway. As much as girls bitch about their butts to begin with, I can't see why they would warm to the adjective "juicy." Juicy indicates soft and squishy, which anatomically seems to correlate to flabby. That's hot?
Here's my proposition, and it's just so much cooler:
For one thing, the adjective in and of itself is way better: "My ass, it's delicious!" Much sexier than comparing one's derriere to an overripe peach.
For another, the Internet geekery allusion is equally apropos: "My ass, it's so cool, don't you wish you could bookmark it so you can share it with all your friends and be able to access it from wherever you are and not just from your personal computer?" Or, put another way, "Del.icio.us this, bitch!"
And it's free advertising for a very awesome company. How could this possibly go wrong?
Unfortunately, Cafepress doesn't do velour sweatpants. Oh well.
Delicious has gotten boring IMHO. But, if you really want the pants, neighborhoodies.com should be able to do them (albeit more expensively than a cafepress equivalent).

For anyone who doesn't get the appeal of the word juicy, I would just have one question: Eat out much?

Having the area large and clear enough might suggest another side of the coin.

Why would these college girls you're talking about need to hide their "exceptionally large breasts"? I mean, why would they need to hide themselves when not wanting to be whistled at?
Anyway... these sweatpants would be cool!

'Cept that Del.icio.us is now owned by Yahoo. So the "very awesome company" should read "very awesome company owned by a very crappy company".

Now that is absolutely del.icio.us!

I just don't get the whole pants with words on them thing. Why not just cut to the chase and have a print which says 'ass sex'?

Also, American Apparel makes velour pants. And unlike Juicy or most other companies, their workers are treated like human beings. (see more: http://www.americanapparel.net/mission/workers.html)

But those....WANT, WANT!!!!!

Great idea for the pants, totally archaic mindset about women having to hide their "exceptionally large breasts." Do you have exceptionally large breasts? Do you search and search and search for tops that are large enough and fit nicely enough to your curves? You know what makes me feel good? Being able to wear what I want and what makes me feel powerful and sexy. You know what doesn't make me feel good? Catcalls on the street. It's the same old "short skirt deserves rape" bullshit - it's not cause and effect; it's men not being able to keep their opinions to themselves and mind their own freaking business.
