pyjamas in public

People, students in the OC and at UCI like to wear pyjamas and pyjama like clothing in public. To be dressed in a suit when confronting an ugg boot shod, flannel pyjama, or juicy couture wearing Other is be be apprehended as "corporate slave" -- whereas the one in sleepwear enjoys the freedom of dreaming in public, or lolling about in an endless bed.

It's as if rich ladies who shop in clingy velour workout suits and students wearing pjyama bottoms are slothful rebels against a regime of spatial differentiation.

How square to wear day clothes in the day!

How could such people know the pleasures of illicit love, the pleasure of being undressed in the dark when they are at all times ready for bed or the next casual hookup?
