Too much underwear

[davidology]

It's official.... I bought entirely too much underwear at H&M in NY. I can't fit any more in the two drawers that are already overflowing with underwear.

I think I have a problem.

Seriously.. I have two separate drawers: one for boxers and boxer briefs; the other for briefs. Both are full.

Is there a 12-step program for people with an obsession with underwear?

I can't handle briefs. They're too restraining.
In any case, you could try to go commando for a while and eliminate the need for underwear altogether.

[davidology.livejournal.com]

I agree. And I very rarely wear them.

...which begs the question: why do I have a drawer full of them?

I can't do commando. I.. uhm.. get too excited.

[cowslayer.livejournal.com]

I never tried. But now I somehow feel inspired to.

Trust..

...you'll be walking around with your backpack in front of you the whole day. :-P

I have no issues with public boners. It's not impolite to have it, it's impolite to notice it.

Re: Trust..

[davidology.livejournal.com]

I can think of a couple circumstances where it might be impolite to not notice it.

I should stop drinking the wine now. Why did I go Trader Joe's tonight?

Re: Trust..

I went to Trader Joe's last weekend and bought a ton of cheap wine. It's time for a glass. Thnx for the idea.

I think I took home 4 bottles (I forgot already). Gotta love the 2-buck-chuck.

::holds glass to monitor::
Cheers, Eddy! Thanks a lot!

I'm...oddly, the same way!

[davidology.livejournal.com]

Maybe we should start a support group?

There was a time when the salesguy at Bloomingdales would actually call me up to let me know when the twice annual CK sale was going on.

My poor credit cards never had a chance :-/

I'm still holding on to underwear from many, many years in the past.

They are still bright white and perfect to wear.

Re:

but then you miss the fun of choosing your underwear in the morning. You can even make them match your shoes (ok, kidding on that last one).

Nothing wrong with that. I actually have my designer underwear folded so the the label on the front of the waist bands are displayed when you open the drawn.

I can't afford diamonds, so I collect undies.

Re:

[davidology.livejournal.com]

ahhh collecting undies. I never thought about it that way.

Although I never fold. Too much work. Just stuff!

Re:

[curiousgeorgecu.livejournal.com]

Just stuff!


::gets excited::

:::looks around:::

nope... don't have that problem... don't own any undies... commando all the way baby!!

cool icon, oh and I think you'll agree that the answer to his problem is in sending a pair of his undies to his lj friends as a momento.

lol... I don't know why that crossed my mind as the perfect solution to this problem.

oh wait... it's cause I'm a Supa Freak!

Re: Davidology's Grand Prize Winner receives...

[davidology.livejournal.com]

lol. I've known someone who sold his used underwear online ::shivers::

Re: Davidology's Grand Prize Winner receives...

[ex-prezrober685.livejournal.com]

Hey don't get a big head thinking you can auction off your dirty undies on ebay :-P

lol... although...

Re: Davidology's Grand Prize Winner receives...

[davidology.livejournal.com]

ewww.... No, I said I knew of someone who did that.

I'm selling my old socks on ebay.

Well, now that I'm totally distracted... I need a moment to imagine this. talk amongst yourselves. I'll give you a topic: the holy roman empire was neither holy, nor roman, nor an empire.

Discuss.

[ex-michael-j625.livejournal.com]

youre a sexy bitch. period.

Re:

[davidology.livejournal.com]

::sigh:: i wish. Then maybe I wouldn't be single.

Hmmm...I hate to say it but...

[ucpsychguy.livejournal.com]

No wait, I NEVER hate to say it. I told you so... How many times were we in line there and you said, ooh, need to look at underwear and you were like, nah never too much! Hah.

Well the pot just called the kettle black. I have two full drawers myself categorized into different colors, styles and purposes. According to the resource center with 10 members or more you can rent out space at the LAGLC for meetings..... any takers? ;)

Re: Hmmm...I hate to say it but...

[davidology.livejournal.com]

Admitting I have a problem is the first step.

[jirafff.livejournal.com]

aww send me some underwear..

Re:

[davidology.livejournal.com]

They're like my babies.

Re:

[ex-prezrober685.livejournal.com]

I'd sell my babies... comes with being Republican. ;)

Re:

[davidology.livejournal.com]

Hi back.

And, yes, we did... and yes, we were!

Let's be friends. Maybe even, dare I say, friendsters.

Re:

[slavexforxyou.livejournal.com]

oh no! anything but friendsters!

alright, alright. we can be friendsters.

but if anything happens, i'm keeping the cat.

Re:

[davidology.livejournal.com]

I guess that'll be okay.

As long as I get custody of the PS/2.

Re:

[slavexforxyou.livejournal.com]

ugh. fine.

i could never figure out how to play those games anyway... especially the football ones... bastards.

//bh

Re:

[davidology.livejournal.com]

football? hmm.. I don't have any of those games.

Although I did put in $5 on a football pool today, but they just told me I had to pick a square.

Does this make me a sports fan?

Re:

[slavexforxyou.livejournal.com]

no, that just makes you a sucker.

and a gambler.

i like suckers and gamblers. [growl]

::grabs a tootsie roll pop::

anyone wanna make bets as to how many licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop?

[mikey-kid.livejournal.com]

I have a similar problem, only my undie drawer is filled with underwear that is way too big for me.

Re:

[davidology.livejournal.com]

yea, I usually try to buy my underwear one size bigger coz smalls always seem to feel too constricting even if it does match my waist size.

[shouldvesmiled.livejournal.com]

I always have too many pairs of underwear and never enough socks. What happens to the socks? Is it like on Family Guy where the Narnia satyr took them?

Re:

[davidology.livejournal.com]

lol. I have a ritual every couple of years... I throw away all my socks and go buy a bunch of new ones at Target. That way I don't have to match up socks and can just stuff 'em in the drawer :-P

[garakk.livejournal.com]

you dont know me, i came across your journal through Pauls, this post caught my attention, i have the same problem. i have boxers, boxer briefs, every color, i have enough underwear i could go over 2 or 3 months without having to do laundry because my dresser is full of them.
I am glad to know i am not the only one with this problem.....and a sock addiction too.

Re:

[davidology.livejournal.com]

I'm really beginning to think starting a support group is the way to go with this. Besides, I bet lots of cute bois go!

[echo3347.livejournal.com]

I seriously need to buy more...oy heh

Re:

[davidology.livejournal.com]

you can't have too many seems to be my philosophy!

[partyarty25.livejournal.com]

well share the wealth :P I'm sure we're probably about the same size...tehe

Re:

[davidology.livejournal.com]

Now that sounds like a plan.
