It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Try a blousing garter or a Velcro strap. If you use blousing garters, fold over your pant leg, put on the garter, then roll up your pant leg.

I appreciate your sense of humor here. I hope that I didn't give you the impression of "just git gud!" There are all kinds of bicycle tips and tricks that are difficult or really prolix to convey online.
