@Buttonstc: Actually, I haven’t seen that. I haven’t branched out into the oldies yet, but I have heard of it. And I’ve heard references to a flannel suit (Rose says in The Golden Girls that she dressed her husband in gray flannel pants and a shirt and tie when he had his heart attack so he would be dressed for the paramedics) but even then, I just thought of pajamas and sheets.. lol.
It’s true, it’s totally a generational thing. I wear flannel PJ pants to work at times, because I can. I just can’t see flannel as being anything but flowy and soft, which a suit definitely isn’t.
