quelle underpants




A MAN QUESTION

When was the last time (approximately) that you bought underpants?  For yourself?


I thought of this on Christmas day after opening my 3-pack from Santa.  My best answer?  Never.  I went through college on mom-bought;  then wearing GI; then a period of going regimental, and finally marriage with a drawer full of old mom bought. Since then my bride buys me a 3-pack every time a pair disintegrates in the washing machine.  Oh, and the question does not apply to gays either, since they're considered eveningwear .

For the sake of others, I hope that load is sand.

I'm usually the one pushing for a rollover, but in this case I thank you for the omission, Rodge!

A lifetime spent wearing what women and the government find adequate. Splurge the next time you're at Costco, and buy the three pack of microfiber boxer briefs. You'll be buried in them, and you'll never look like that guy in the pic.

Casca - I was verging on worrying about you. Now, I need some boots shined. Chop chop.

See, this is why I never get invited on the Sunday talk shows. I ask a compelling question, but then throw in some gratuitous beefcake and everyone gets all excited and forgets to answer the question. No more beefcake for you.

I've bought my own drawers since Uncle Sammy turned me loose in 1974, My Liege.

The damndest thing is that could be me, if put on about 60 pounds and shit my speedos.

Getting old sucks.

That's the worst case of 'roids I've ever seen. Be a great Prep H product placement opportunity.

Crivens, I think that IS me. No, wait, I actually own swim trunks and use them. Phew, for a minute there I was pretty worried.

Answer: Marks & Spencer undies from 1997 finally gave up the ghost two years ago. New ones purchased online from same outlet arrived as replacements in 2011. See no reason to change anything.

Once I tried stuff from Target; it lasted about a year, then fell apart. I'll never buy local again.

M&S is the leading retailer for undies in Britain for a good reason: it doesn't break, ever.

Two months ago I bought a half-dozen boxer briefs from Duluth Trading Company.
They're so good, I've just started wearin' the third pair.

I used to buy novelty boxers from Target whenever I went in there. Then something happened about mid 2000's and their quality went to hell and the novelty boxers really weren't funny anymore or based on cartoon characters I despise, like Stewie from Family Guy or the American Dad character. In any case, I stopped shopping there.

Guess I made such a stink about it (yeah - I meant to say that), that my family members know not to try to buy me underwear anymore. Sometimes I can be a real humorless guy...

I was grossly amused at the ole man on the beach.
Then I wished I had a couple of daggers to stick in my eyes after hitting the roll over.

I have bought plenty of 3-packs of briefs over the years, because I don't trust someone who lacks a package to know how to properly protect and secure mine.

It's just that I seldom wear them anymore.
