Does this happen to everybody?

Posted on Monday 19 March 2007

I was still half asleep after swim practice this morning, and so while dressing I unwittingly put my underwear on backwards. I didn’t realize this until about three hours later, a good way through my morning at work. What do you do at this point? I didn’t feel all that comfortable stripping down in the bathroom stall to correct the problem. So I ended up spending the day with my underwear on backwards. I’m not sure what other options I had. I’ve seen women do some tricky stuff changing their bra while their shirt is still on but I’m pretty sure I couldn’t pull that off with my underwear. Maybe it was a good opportunity for me to streak the Google campus? That certainly would make for a great story but seems a little extreme.

Does this happen to everybody or is it just me?

    Don’t sell yourself short. I think with enough practice, you would eventually be able to do a bra-style switcheroo with your underwear *during a meeting*.

    While *presenting* at a meeting. :-)

    Let me share a little secret with you that will save you future anguish: Go commando, baby.

    I bet one of the buttons on the hi-tech toto toilet at work is “underpants switcheroo” - just not sure which one.

    Wow. I even saw you yesterday. You didn’t say anything. You were just sitting there, acting normal. But I now see that inside you were filled with anguish, a desperate cry for help just barely unable to escape.

    You wanted to be Pantsed! :)

    I highly recommend you order up Zoolander from Netflix as it may provide you with some inspiration in solving this dilemma ;-)

    …reminds me of the story of how you nearly ripped yourself a second @)&hole when you had that internship at nasa…i gather that backwards underwear beats hemorrhage-in-the-trousers any day of the week (although i can’t speak from experience…)
