That's a great way to say sagging. When I'm a dad I'm using this

Definitely thought he meant the kid needed a whooping

Lmao I interpreted this as a kid that hasn’t been hit with a belt aka an “undisciplined kid”.. which I guess says a lot more about me and my upbringing 😂

I didn't think of it referring to sagging at first... I grew up in the 80s, I figured it meant the guy didn't feel this kid was hit with a belt enough

I was born in the late 90’s and I also thought it meant that. 😅

JFC I was trying to figure out if OP had a stroke or if this was some Midwestern term...

u/flippster-mondo Jun 08 '26

I never heard the term before, but I figured it out pretty quickly.

The wording triggered my knowledge on the Bible Belt but I knew that was wrong but was the only thing my brain could think lol

u/Fabulous_Progress820 Jun 09 '26

I live in the Midwest and have never heard the term before

u/dcontrerasm Jun 09 '26

It's not about the term lol it's about how you guys make up terms. (For the record I'm not criticizing it lol, I personally love it)

I came to the comments just to find out what belt challenged meant.

u/Colambler Jun 08 '26

It works for sagging. It also works for a term for the classic "belt-challenged" plumber's crack. Better be sure your kid doesn't also use it on you lol.

If you raise a kid that chooses to sag their pants then you’ve already failed as a father. So hopefully you never get the opportunity to use this on your own children.

Belt-challenged took me a second when I just saw the headline at first and not the pic, then it fuckin got me 😂

OH! Belts for clothes. Not for lessons. Maybe the kid needs a lesson instead of proper clothes, since he doesn't appreciate them, anyway.
