I couldn't agree more. I say if you're selling a pant for $150, the pair should cost $300.

And that's too much for pants anyway. ;-)

Oh, I agree! I loathe the use of this word to indicate a single pair of pants. I see it in fashion journalism and retail: jacket $200, blouse $100, pant $150. But don't we all put our "pants" on in the morning, not our "pant"? (Pace dress and skirt wearers.)

Specifically...

Listed under "words I hate" as the singular of "pants," not as what dogs do.
