(listed in order of least-to-most embarrassing)
- You're encouraging a small child/dog to follow

- For a glute workout
- You split your pants
- You split your pants while wearing cutesy, ice-cream scoop underwear
- You split your pants while wearing no underwear at all
- Your head is on backwards

You are climbing down a ladder.
