You gotta be pulling my pants down kid!

When something happens and it makes such little sense that a little kid running up to you and pulling your pants down seems more logical.

To have my pants pulled down

Other than it's literal meaning, it is metaphorically used to denote somebody being taken for a fool. Mostly used by Brits. Brought to the wider audience by Guy Ritchie's movie, Snatch.

Turkish: (looks at the caravan) Look at it. How am I suppose to run this thing from that? We'll need a proper office. I want a new one, Tommy. You're going to buy it for me.
Tommy: Why me?
Turkish: Well, you know about caravans.
Tommy: How's that?
Turkish: You spent a summer in one, which means you know more than me. And I don't want to have my pants pulled down over the price.
