Poopa'd dupas
Yellow fellows
Itchy britchies
And in some unfortunate cases, not tidy.
Tighty
I've always known these as the tighty whities.
Has nothing to do with the race of their wearer. The underwear itself is white.
The race specific version would be "uptighty honkies".
A friend got pantsed back in middle school, revealing tighty whities and a brown stain. After that he was forever known as Skidmark Steve.
Oof. That's unfortunate
Tighty whitey because they fit snuggly and they are overwhelmingly white in color...
*snugly. Snuggly is something different.
i said what i said... lol...i'm going to leave it anyway
If it is tight fitting, then you bought the wrong size.
Why do you keep posting this?
Man-panties
Manties, if you will
The only danger there is someone may misunderstand and think you have a manatee in your pants.
On second thought, thatβs not a danger. Itβs an opportunity for hilarity.
Is that manatee in your pants or are you REALLY happy to see me?
Hell son, they sure ain't tidy I'll tell you that.
Not with that attitude they aren't
Huh. When I first got to Lemmy, I looked around for the no dumb questions community, look like it has grown a lot since then!
Are briefs segregated by skin color where you live ? /s
Hi diddly ho, my friendly Lemmy-writo!
This might also depend on how much you want to sound like Ned Flanders... So take your pick carefully!
Manties.
Or TW's
Tighty white supremacy
If it is tight, then you bought the wrong size.
Does that change the name?
