    How many pairs of underwear do you own and do you alternate between boxers and briefs (or whatever else you might wear).

    I can't wear boxer and have about thirty pairs of briefs.



    yes before you ask I am incredibly bored at the moment.

    Why are they called "pairs"

    A pair of boxer shorts? Surely that denotes two things?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,379 ✭✭✭Jimbo


    yea- inside out and outside in. Like i've just learned

    Bout 20 pairs of boxers. No slips/briefs, thx.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36,634 ✭✭✭✭Ruu_Old


    No briefs allowed, leave that to Mr.Bean. :) Heaps of boxers.


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47,418 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    Boxers only, maybe 15-20 pairs, I dunno and, more importantly, don't care as long as there's a clean pair for tomorrow.

    Funnily enough, that makes sense.

    But then why a pair of knickers for the laydeez?

    Wait, I've thought of the answer.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,575 ✭✭✭✭FlutterinBantam


    6 pairs of Y-Fronts...white at the front,dark mustard at the back.

    Anyone ever boil them in a saucepan to get the stains out?

    The come up great the first few times but eventually go all rotten at the crotch.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,990 ✭✭✭✭Gavin "shels"


    About 20-25 pairs of boxers (mostly designer one's:D and they're real).

    What you should do is, go to one of those "print your own" business card machines in shopping centers, get that exact post printed on a business card.

    Then when out on the town, hand them out to the laydeez.

    Bish bash bosh. End of chat up lines. Score Gavin "shels"

    just put vanish on the stains before you put them in the washing machine and all the stains go away:eek:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,575 ✭✭✭✭FlutterinBantam


    Even the dried -in stains!!!!

    I used to have a dozen toweling jocks, great for soaking up the ball grease,and could be recycled as face cloths towards the end.

    Why can't you wear boxers??

    Doesn't make either difference to me. I wear both interchangeably. Change em at least once a week too :P

    Can't for the life of me imagine those being anything but uncomfortable. Do you have 50 because, as a result of them always going where no underwear (other than other thongs) has gone before, they require a few cleans between wearings?:p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,811 ✭✭✭*Page*


    No just like them buy different colours and shapes and they only go to uncomfortable places if you get cheap ones...

    And i have so many coz i like them only have a handful of regulars that i wear. the rest are for special occaisions

    leave soak for a few hours in water with the vanish powder. and it gets rid of the dried in ones... you nasty men!!!

    I live with a nasty man and his nasty shorts!

    hmmmm recently bought more.. lets think... about 15-20 french knicker style, 10 regular, and a handful of fancy pants LOL. Can't do thongs... it's like a perma-wedgie. Do have a few boxer style pants too.

    (and before anyone asks, I have two pairs of star-pants ;) )
