Origin
Edit
MC Hammer dominated the charts with his hip-hop single "Can't Touch This". His signature parachute pants and Hammer dance were everywhere in the early 90's. However, due to poor investments and a rapid decline in popularity due to overexposure, MC Hammer lost everything, losing his house and declaring bankruptcy.
UsageEdit
When the user wears the pants and says the phrase, "Can't Touch This", the wearer will be blessed with temporary fame and fortune beyond his/her wildest dreams. However, the effect comes with a downside. Shortly after the wearer has reached the pinnacle of popularity, the effect will reverse, causing instant unpopularity and poverty.
CollectionEdit
Artie bought the pants from an auction MC Hammer held at his estate to gather enough money for his doomed TV career.
