what's the big deal. they are either all "artistes" "gays" or working in marketing/advertising and trying to shovel this stuff to us.

i could get fired wearing those, especially in that picture with the dude propping his legs up on the table...

What's the big deal. If you are going to wear shorts, I see nothing wrong with how they are being worn in the 3 linked pics.

The greater debate is, are shorts appropriate at all...

Shorts are fine, but when you wear it with a shirt, tie, and blazer, you just look like a child. John Robert's kid doing the Spiderman dance springs to mind. Pretty much the funniest thing I've seen on TV in the past couple of years.

What kind of company is this with a No Pants policy? Perhaps it's a porno studio?

Tanner Morrill applies for a job at Richter7 in Salt Lake City. Mr. Morrill was informed of the company's "no pants" policy and wore the shorts to the interview along with his shirt and tie.
